Description

Detect if hardware-accelerated Transparencies features are available (depending on the Java platform and version, starting from Java 6 Update 10) and use them, or if not available do nothing.

Note that this needs some additional parameters in the wtk files ...

Some hints:

Ah, an interesting thing to note it that in Java 7 this will be put in a standard package (and maybe will remain also in the current package).
