NITPICKING: show() is deprecated

[kleist]

Dear all,

I'm a bit curious about the call to show() in main() of JFrames created by Swing Designer 2.0.0 (also in 2.0.1 from 2004-08-07).

Is this just an omission, or are there compatibility issues involved?!?

When and in whoch version of Java is show() deprecated? What is the alternative? Keep in mind that we need to generate code that will work in JDK 1.3 and on.

Uh oh: Sorry for not having checked this better. Depreciation occurred in 1.5 (or rather will occur, and the release will be named 5.0 eh?).

But I'm pretty sure that setVisible(true) is equivalent also in 1.3.

OK. We can use setVisible(true) instead (Designer itself doesn't care).
