Hi,

im using Java 1.5, and Im trying to set the cursor to a wait or a hand
cursor while my application is "working". I have

myjframe.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));

which does compile without deprecation, however it does not effectively
change the cursor, as I would like it to. Ive also tried Hand Cursor,
which does not change the cursor either...

any ideas? Thanks!

My guess is that a PL&F is setting it back. It's amazing how badly
behaved PL&Fs are. I suggest getting out a debugger and seeing which
bugger is doing it (quite possibly on the glass pane).
