Yeah. I know. That's the lack of Cocoa bindings.The real solution is to not have used the Apple Java in the first place.
I know it was tempting as it was a nice language, that many devs already knew and using it on a Mac with the Apple Java made the Java interfaces look good. An all time best for Java. But, it took them forever to release Java 6 for Apple. That should have been the signal to everyone that its future on the platform was not going to be long lived.
Java is now a Second Class citizen on the mac. Just like it is on every other desktop.
