java modal frame with maximize button

Question

I wonder if it possible:

to make a jdialog (which can be modal) with maximize button (is it possible to make custom but which will maximize frame?)
or to make jframe (which has default maximize button) modal?

There lots of topic about this, but I found no clean solutions. Only tricks with setEnabled(), etc.

Thanks everyone in advance!

There is always JInternalFrame, but I don't think you can make it modal, and it is not exactly like a JFrame — Guillaume Polet, May 16 '12 at 12:22

AFAIK not possible, because Top-Level Containers came from Native OS,
then mouse double click to the JFrame's toolbar resize container to fills whole screen Dimension, second double ćlick restore lastz known Dimension
this not possible with JDialog
from any of Mouse(Xxx)Listener doesn't response mouse_events from toolbar that came from Native OS, only from are that fills RootPane

code example

import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
import javax.swing.Timer;

Please have a look at this, you can use JDialog for what you are saying in your question.
