You are going to have to provide your code. Here is the code I used and it animates just fine.

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class App extends JFrame
{
public App()
{
this.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
{
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent w)
{
System.exit(0);
}
});
JLabel l = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("matrix3.gif"));
this.getContentPane().add(l);
this.pack();
this.setLocationRelativeTo(this);
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
new App().setVisible(true);
}

}

Hi All,

I am running Java 1.5.0_04 on windows xp.

I have one animated GIF file and a static GIF file. First I setIcon() to the
JLabel with the static GIF file. Before I perform some activities, I
setIcon() to the JLabel with the animated GIF file so that the user knows
some kind of process is going on. The label gets updated with the animated gif, but the gif looks static, i.e. the animation is lost....why is this happening?
