Hi, i'm a computer science student working on a Yahoo Messenger - like program implemented in Java.

My problem is that whenever the JTextArea inside my frame contains new message updates, the user must be prompted even when his/her frame is minimized. Is there a workaround on how to make the JFrame on the taskbar blink when updates are received?

In short, i badly need a way to notify the user that the frame has been updated even though it is minimized.

Is that possible? Thanks for you help. ^_^
