Catch only the last resize event of a window

Question

Hi
I've gone through the forums but can't find a solution.
Only for one of my JFrames I have to watch for component resize and trigger an action after mouse has been released.
I'm listening for componentResize but get all of them during dragging. As it is only for one window I cannot disable the dynamic layout property. Next I thought to catch the mouse release event and see that resize has been done before.
But I'm not able to get this event. Toolkit.addAWTEventListener() is not informed about this mouse event.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance

Ok, the example below produces only one final event on Windows but multiple events on Linux (jdk1.6.0)
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.event.ComponentAdapter;
import java.awt.event.ComponentEvent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class Sample {
     private static int count = 0;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          JFrame frame = new JFrame();
//          System.out.println("dynamic layout: "
//               + Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().isDynamicLayoutActive());
//          Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().isDynamicLayoutActive();
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(100, 100));
          panel.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
          frame.add(panel);
          frame.addComponentListener(new ComponentAdapter() {
               public void componentResized(ComponentEvent e) {
                    System.out.println("count: " + count++);
          frame.pack();
          frame.setVisible(true);
}
