      The TextComponent.AccessibleAWTTextComponent.getSelectedText() returns empty
      string instead of null, when there is no selection.

      The javadoc says:"
      public String getSelectedText()

            Returns the portion of the text that is selected.
            Specified by:
                  getSelectedText in interface AccessibleText
            Returns:
                  the text, null if no selection

      "

      See example.
      ------------- example --------------
      import java.awt.*;
      import javax.accessibility.*;

      public class Test {

         public static void main(String argv[]) {

             TextField o=new TextField("Test1");
             AccessibleText c = o.getAccessibleContext().getAccessibleText();
             if (c.getSelectedText()!=null) {
                 System.out.println("Failed. Method returns:\""
                         +c.getSelectedText()+"\"");
             } else {
      System.out.println("Passed");
             }
         }

      }
