Java change cursor

is there any way to change the cursor in Java at all, not just for one JComponent?

I need this because I want the cursor to change, when your mouse leaves the JFrame, so there is no JComponent in the background.

Thanks for your help!

If you want to change the system cursor (i.e. when the cursor is outside your application), this is the responsibility of your system. I don't think you can change the system's settings from Java in a platform-independent way.

Setting cursor on your JFrame or top level window should do the trick
