Native Swing Menu Bar Support For MacOS X In Java

I think I see what’s going on. If you put the main() method in a different class, then everything works. So you need something like:

public class RootGUILauncher {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
                System.setProperty("apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar", "true");
                System.setProperty("com.apple.mrj.application.apple.menu.about.name", "Test");
                UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
        }
        catch(ClassNotFoundException e) {
                System.out.println("ClassNotFoundException: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        catch(InstantiationException e) {
                System.out.println("InstantiationException: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        catch(IllegalAccessException e) {
                System.out.println("IllegalAccessException: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        catch(UnsupportedLookAndFeelException e) {
                System.out.println("UnsupportedLookAndFeelException: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            new RootGUI();
        }
    });
}

And then put your RootGUI class in a different file.
