Problem with DataReferenceImp.setData()

Hello,

we are having a problem which involves a data reference
being used for a UnionSet, and then for a FlatField.

When the data reference's setData() is initially passed a
UnionSet, the data is displayed.  Sometime later, the
data reference's setData() is called again, but this time
a FlatField is passed to it.

The results are inconsistant.  Sometimes the FlatField
is displayed, and sometimes it isn't.

Attached is a sample program (DataRefBug.java)
which illustrates the problem.

You can run it in 2 ways:

> java DataRefBug
- will display the UnionSet data first (a cross).  Click on
 the "Change Data" button, and the data reference's
 setData() is passed a FlatField.  In all our tests, the
 visad window goes black, and the FlatField is not shown.

OR

> javaDataRefBug 0
- will display the FlatField first.  Click on the "Change Data"
  button, and the data reference's setData() is passed a
  UnionSet.  In all our tests, this works and the UnionSet
  data is shown.

You can continue to click the "Change Data" button to cycle
between the UnionSet data and the FlatField data.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Why does the display correctly update when the FlatField
is shown first and not when the UnionSet is shown first?

Thanks,
Jim.
