Inside in JFrame:

   Component g = this.getGlassPane ();
   g.setCursor (Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
   g.addMouseListener (MyMouseListener);
   g.setVisible (true);

   // some job... (a simple loop)

   g.removeMouseListener (MyMouseListener);
   g.setCursor (Cursor.getDefaultCursor());
   g.setEnabled (false);

but the wait cursor is never comes out.
What do I need for the wait cursor to appear for this short period ?
Do I need to make some kind of "yeld()" or "repaint()" before the loop ?

Thank you in advance
