I am using linux-jdk 6 (update 2) on freebsd... all my other code runs
fine (all non-GUI) but this little snippet opens the JFrame then

{
        public static void main(String[] args)

                JFrame frame=new JFrame();

                frame.pack();
                frame.setVisible(true);

It should not.

A featured to automatically terminate program that are busy
waiting sounds as a very sophisticated JVM.

Perhaps the kernel itself detects the busy-wait and kills the
process. I know I would if I were a kernel.


Regardless like other people said unless I have dispose_on_close or
exit_on_close it shouldn't matter.... I am attempting to rebuild the
JDK because I installed it under xorg 7.2 but then upgraded to 7.3
(one of the larger upgrades X has ever had)
