that seems to adress my problem. But I still do not manage to adapt and
make the compiler (1.4.2_08) agree with this

StyleContext outer = new StyleContext();
// third point in the following line is rejected with ^ ( expected
StyleContext.NamedStyle inner = outer.new StyleContext.NamedStyle();

By now the problem seems to have turned into a syntax-error, the
compiler complains about the point seperating StyleContext.NamedStyle()
- but as I got it this points indicates: the inner class NamedStyle of
StyleContext is to be instantiated and so the point seems essential to
me. I tried quiet some possible combination of brackets - does anybody
see, what I still miss in this?

Try something like:

StyleContext.NamedStyle inner = outer.new NamedStyle();

You are already in the context of StyleContext because of outer.
