Java GUI applications only give me a blank window, I tried:
main = do
    xmonad $ defaultConfig
    { modMask = mod4Mask
    , startupHook = setWMName "LG3D"
    -- other customizations
    }
and setting this:
_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 
and this:
AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit
and I tried using "wmname" suckless tools. None of those methods worked for me. Two questions:
I use java 8 and below is my currently minimal xmonad config.
import XMonad 
import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog
import XMonad.Hooks.SetWMName
import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Hooks.FadeInactive
import XMonad.Util.Run(spawnPipe)
import XMonad.Util.EZConfig(additionalKeys)
import XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer
import XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops
import System.IO
term = "termite"
myWorkspaces = ["1","2","3","4","5"]
myLogHook :: X ()
myLogHook = fadeInactiveLogHook fadeAmount
    where fadeAmount = 0.7
main = do
    xmonad $ defaultConfig { 
        startupHook = setWMName "LG3D",
        manageHook = manageDocks <+> manageHook defaultConfig,
        layoutHook = avoidStruts $ layoutHook defaultConfig,
        logHook = dynamicLog
             >> updatePointer (0.5,0.5) (1,1)
             >> myLogHook,
        terminal = term,
        borderWidth = 0,
        focusFollowsMouse = False,
        workspaces = myWorkspaces
        }`additionalKeys`[
            ((mod1Mask .|. shiftMask, xK_l), spawn "scrot 'lock.png' -q 1 -e 'mv $f /tmp/lock.png' && i3lock -I 1 -i /tmp/lock.png"),
            ((controlMask, xK_Print), spawn "sleep 0.2; scrot -s"),
            ((0, xK_Print), spawn "scrot"),
            ((mod1Mask, xK_d), spawn "rofi -config /home/chrootzius/.config/rofi/config -show run")
        ]
                so finally I found out it is:
borderWidth = 0,
after disabling this setting or setting it to any positive value everything works like a charm.
--this works
borderWidth = [any positive value],
--for example
borderWidth = 1,
Sorry for bothering you guys. I hope the information can help anyone.
