RE: [Rails-devel] The Player Class

Wait... that won't work.

Java doesn't do multiple inheritance.

Damn.

I guess this is why they moved this method around between the versions.

Ok... I'll use setSize() instead of setPreferredSize(). setSize() comes from Component in 1.4

Oh hell.

Yeah, I want to be compatible with 1.4 because 1.5 really hasn't gotten much market penetration yet.

However, I'm using 1.5 on all my machines. That explains it.

I suppose we just have Options extend from both JFrame and JComponent then.

Unfortunately this still does not apply to Options.

I may now have found why: this reference
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/swing/1.5/
explains with that Java 1.5 setPreferredSize() has been
promoted from class JComponent to Component.

Now Component is in the class hierarchy of JFrame
(the base class of Options), but JComponent is not.
So that is why setPreferredSize does not compile with my Java 1.4.2.

So either this method can't be used, or we must change to Java 1.5
as the agreed platform (I thought it was 1.4).

Erik.
