[Bug swing/24115] New: layout issue with JCheckBox inside GridLayout

[hendrich at informatik dot uni-hamburg dot de]

See attached screenshot for the placement of JCheckBox'es inside a
GridLayout when the GridLayout is wider than the JCheckBox:
the JDK (1.4 and 1.5) left-aligns the JCheckBox'es, while classpath
(cvs 2005.09.29) seems to center them.

Arguably, both behaviours are valid, but classpath should probably
follow the reference implementation here. 

The relevant source code is like this:

    ...
    includeClasspathCB =
        new JCheckBox( " include CLASSPATH JARs ",
          SetupManager.getBoolean(
            "Hades.Browser.IncludeClasspathJars", false ));
      includeExtensionCB =
        new JCheckBox( " include extension directory JARs ",
          SetupManager.getBoolean(
            "Hades.Browser.IncludeExtensionJars", false ));

      JPanel tfPanel = new JPanel( new GridLayout(0,1) );
      tfPanel.add( new JLabel(
        "Enter directory names:  /tmp/hades  C:\\temp\\hades  etc.") );
      tfPanel.add( dir0TF=_tf(0) );
      tfPanel.add( dir1TF=_tf(1) );
      tfPanel.add( dir2TF=_tf(2) );
      tfPanel.add( dir3TF=_tf(3) );
      tfPanel.add( new JLabel("") );
      tfPanel.add( includeClasspathCB );
      tfPanel.add( includeExtensionCB );
      ...
