For those running CayenneModeler / JDK 1.4.1 on Mac OS X. There is
indeed a bug (it was submitted to Apple already). I just received a
confirmation of that (see below). Oh well, we will have to wait some
more.

> 3. I ignored notifications from Software Update.
> 4. I installed Mac OS X 10.2.4 Combined Update from the CD.
> 5. I installed Java 1.4.1 from the CD.

> setVisible ( true );

> public static void main ( String [] args )

> Then I repeated everything (points 2-5 above) anew but with HFS+
> instead of UFS in point 2 -- my test code worked.

> As a side note, I felt my system's performance improved with HFS+.
