  13.      * This is copied from java.awt.Toolkit since we need the library

  14.      * loaded in sun.awt.image also:

  15.      *

  16.      * WARNING: This is a temporary workaround for a problem in the

  17.      * way the AWT loads native libraries. A number of classes in this

  18.      * package (sun.awt.image) have a native method, initIDs(),

  19.      * which initializes

  20.      * the JNI field and method ids used in the native portion of

  21.      * their implementation.

  22.      *

  23.      * Since the use and storage of these ids is done by the

  24.      * implementation libraries, the implementation of these method is

  25.      * provided by the particular AWT implementations

  26.      * (i.e. "Toolkit"s/Peer), such as Motif, Win32 or Tiny. The

  27.      * problem is that this means that the native libraries must be

  28.      * loaded by the java.* classes, which do not necessarily know the

  29.      * names of the libraries to load. A better way of doing this

  30.      * would be to provide a separate library which defines java.awt.*

  31.      * initIDs, and exports the relevant symbols out to the

  32.      * implementation libraries.

  33.      * 

  34.      * For now, we know it's done by the implementation, and we assume

  35.      * that the name of the library is "awt".  -br.
