Dear Bug Report,


On a Wintel system running Windows NT 4.0 SP 3, executing the program below under
JDK 1.2 Beta 4 and then pressing the "+" key on main part of the keyboard goes not generate a
KEY_PRESSED event. Only a KEY_TYPED event is generated. JDK 1.1.6 does generate a KEY_PRESSED
event for the same program.

In JDK 1.2 Beta 4 the "+" key on the main keyboard does not generate the KEY_PRESSED event,
but the "+" key on the numeric keypad does.


There is a similar problem with the "-" key.


Sincerely,



Thorn Green


Program Code:
-------------


package geomdir;


import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import com.sun.java.swing.*;
import com.sun.java.swing.border.*;


class MyComp extends JComponent
{
JFrame ParentFrame = null;

public MyComp( JFrame in )
{
ParentFrame = in;
enableEvents( AWTEvent.KEY_EVENT_MASK );
}

public void processKeyEvent( KeyEvent e )

{
char c = e.getKeyChar();

if( c == '+' )
{
if( e.getID() == KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED )
System.out.println( "Pressed a Plus!!!" );

if( e.getID() == KeyEvent.KEY_RELEASED )
System.out.println( "Released a Plus!!!" );

if( e.getID() == KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED )
System.out.println( "Key Typed Event on Plus!!!" );
}

super.processKeyEvent( e );
}

public boolean isFocusTraversable( )
{ return( true ); }

}


public class TestApp2 extends Object
{
protected static JFrame MyF;
protected static MyComp MyKit;

protected static void initialize( String argv[] )
{
MyF = new JFrame();
MyF.setSize( 400 , 400 );
MyF.pack();
MyF.setTitle( "Model Window" );
MyKit = new MyComp( MyF );
JPanel kPan = new JPanel();

MyF.getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout( 0 , 0 ) );
MyF.getContentPane().add( "Center" , MyKit );
}

public static void main( String argv[] )
{
initialize( argv );
MyF.pack();
MyF.setSize( 400 , 400 );
MyF.setVisible( true );
MyKit.requestFocus();
}
