Re: Lightweight peer implementation

I claim that lightweights are not platform-specific, which is why I
submitted the following patch (which has not been comitted) a while back.
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2003-q2/msg00140.html

I think you'll find it works fine with the gtk peers, even though I tested
it with xlib peers.  You really shouldn't need any gtk-specific methods in
there, because in the lightweight case the Component and Container classes
pass all requests up the line to their nearest heavyweight parent.  It's
enough, therefore, that the heavyweights implement the platform-specific
(i.e. xlib vs. gtk, etc.) stuff.
