Web Start on Mac does not respond to zoom, minimize, close, menu [message #1279303]

I have a web start app written with SWT. When executed on Mac OS X (Java 6) the window controls don't work.

The OS is detecting the click, because it beeps if I click on the close, minimize or zoom icons, but the window does not respond accordingly.

The Quit menu item does not cause the app to quit. I need to force quit. This is the menu added by Mac OS X, not my menu.

I have tried detecting these events with listeners to no avail. I have searched but not found anyone with the same problem.

Is there a workaround?

I found the answer. The vmarg -d32 was missing. I put it everywhere even on 64 bit resource tags:

<resources os="Mac\ OS\ X" arch="i386">
<j2se version="1.6+" java-vm-args="-XstartOnFirstThread -d32" />
<jar href="swt-4.2-cocoa-macosx.jar" />
</resources>

<resources os="Mac\ OS\ X" arch="x86_64">
<j2se version="1.6+" java-vm-args="-XstartOnFirstThread -d32" />
<jar href="swt-4.2-cocoa-macosx-x86_64.jar" />
</resources>

<resources os="Mac">
<j2se version="1.6+" java-vm-args="-XstartOnFirstThread -d32" />
<jar href="swt-3.7.2-carbon-macosx.jar" />
</resources>
