Hello,

I made an unfortunate typo in my last header, model instead of modal.

I need advice on a modal JPopupMenu(). For a quick port of a C program
I need to call this
popupmenu from the C code in a DLL. I have the popup & actions all figured
out, JNI
also works fine, it is purely a Java problem. I am using jdk1.2.2.

After I call myPopup.show(null, x, y); in Java the thread offcourse
continues. I need to wait after myPopup.show(null, x, y); untill the user
makes a
choice. Threads and how to stop them are not my strong points...

Any ideas on how to do this?
(I could build a modal dialog, but prefer a solution with the standard
JPopupMenu())

best regards,
Peter
