RTF in JEditorPane - failure with simple document?

[Andrew Thompson]

Can anybody get a stacktrace for the document 'help.rtf'
mentioned here?
<http://www.physci.org/test/doc/rtf.html>

The page links to launch files for 1.4, 1.5 & 1.6, as
well as the code used and the problem document.

(Note: X-posted to c.l.j.programmer/gui, with follow-ups
set to c.l.j.programmer only.)

It loaded correctly for me. I'll try a couple of different ways of
loading later (I used read( inputstream, desc ). Maybe setPage()
produces an error.

I loaded in with 1.6.0_03 Vista Home premium.

It displayed
122222222222222233333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Without stack dump.

This works fine with setPage( URL ); too. *shrug*

From the OP, back on the Sun forums..

"After I update my java vm to 1.6 . The original
version is 1.4.2. Everything works fine now. ..."

To clarify, the parsing of HTML and RTF documents was
vastly improved between Java's 1.4 and 1.6.
I still think there is some slight problem with that
document, but 'every RTF reader under the sun' now
seems to handle it gracefully.

Thanks to Mark and Roedy for your test results.
