WAIT_CURSOR woes on JPanel

I am having trouble setting my cursor to the WAIT_CURSOR when a JButton
is clicked.   The cursor changes to the WAIT_CURSOR on the JButton, but
the setCursor method does not work on any of the JPanels.  I have read
the messages in the newsgroup concerning setting the cursor on JPanel.
I have tried the various methods mentioned in the responses (running the
commands in a separate thread, using the sync() method, repainting and
invalidating all containers, etc.), but nothing seems to work.  (There
was a response that mentioned using the getGlassPane() method on the
JPanel, but I receive a message from the compiler stating that the
method is not defined in the com.sun.java.swing.JPanel class.   Is there
anything else that I can try ?   Will the setCursor problem associated
with JPanel be fixed in the next release ?

Thanks for any help.
