[vtkusers] VTK problems with Java on Gentoo Linux

[Sebastien Jourdain]

Hi Knut,

One reason could be that you are not building all the swing and VTK
object inside the EDT (event dispatch thread)

public static void main(String[] args) {
   SwingUtility.invokeLater(
       new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                   .... your main content ...
            }
       }
   );
}

As I just write it in the mail, use your IDE completion to fix typo...

Moreover, instead of doing a pack (mainWindow.pack();) you should set
a fix sized...

Another thing, you do not need your static block if the first vtk
object you create is the vtkPanel... In fact the vtkPanel class has
the exact same static block.
