Include Java Ayatana as an external library to OpenJDK-7

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · 2 comments

This is not an issue but a request that may get rid of troubles when searching 
for IDE's Support and most of Java Swing applications.

Scenario 1: Make Java Ayatana an external installable library for OpenJDK-7, so 
that the user who runs his/her swing application (IDEs included) using 
OpenJDK-7 gets automatic support for Ubuntu Global Menu, as long as the Swing 
application or IDE implements a JMenuBar.

Scenario 2: Debianize the Java Ayatana Library and request the Ubuntu Packaging 
Team to set it as OpenJDK-7 dependency or even included it in the Ubuntu 
packaged version of OpenJDK-7. This way, any Swing Application that runs on 
Ubuntu with OpenJDK-7 gets automatic Global Menu integration. This requires bit 
of effort.

The new version 2.0 doesn't need endorsed libraries only need a 
_JAVA_OPTIONS=agentlib:jayatanaag environment variable
