Re: Anyone had any success with <Desktop>.open() in 1.6?

I've been playing around with the new Desktop class in 1.6. I've
gotten the mail() and browse() methods to work as advertised, but
not the open() method. Example code:

import java.awt.Desktop;
import java.io.*;

public class DesktopTest
{
public static void main ( String[] args )
{
System.out.println( "Desktop supported?: " + Desktop.isDesktopSupported() );
Desktop desk = Desktop.getDesktop();
try
{
File file = new File( "d:\\basic.txt" );
System.out.println( "File exists?: " + file.exists() );
desk.open( file );
[snip code]
Try this..
Desktop.open( file );
