Re: JFrame resizing

Hello Group,
why doesn't the following code work?

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

class Test extends JFrame {

public void paint( Graphics g ) {
if ( getSize().width != 200 || getSize().height != 100 ) {
System.out.println("Frame Size is different");
setSize( 200, 100 );
}
g.drawString( "A test string", 50, 75);
}

public static void main( String args[] ) {
JFrame f = new Test();
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); f.setLayout( null );
f.setVisible( true );
}
}

I'd expect it to change the frames' size after the user has
resized the frame. But that happen only occasionally.
(I actually want to make sure, that the frams' size dosen't
go below a specific size).

cat /proc/version:
Linux version 2.6.21.4-eeepc (root@LinuxPC) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)) #5 Thu Nov 8 17:17:35 UTC 2007

java -version:
java version "1.6.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode)

Also on the subject of JFrame resizing, why is it that I can restrict the minimum size of a JFrame using setMinimumSize() but I cannot restrict the maximum size using setMaximumSize()? The latter appears to have no effect on the sizing constraints of a JFrame.
