A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
"FocusEvent and WindowEvent
The AWT defines the following six event types central to
the focus model in two different java.awt.event classes:

WindowEvent.WINDOW_ACTIVATED: This event is dispatched to a
Frame or Dialog (but never a Window which is not a Frame or
Dialog) when it becomes the active Window.
WindowEvent.WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS: This event is dispatched
to a Window when it becomes the focused Window. Only
focusable Windows can receive this event.
FocusEvent.FOCUS_GAINED: This event is dispatched to a
Component when it becomes the focus owner. Only focusable
Components can receive this event.
FocusEvent.FOCUS_LOST: This event is dispatched to a
Component when it is no longer the focus owner.
WindowEvent.WINDOW_LOST_FOCUS: This event is dispatched to
a Window when it is no longer the focused Window.
WindowEvent.WINDOW_DEACTIVATED: This event is dispatched to
a Frame or Dialog (but never a Window which is not a Frame
or Dialog) when it is no longer the active Window.
Event Delivery
The events are dispatched in the order in which they are
presented above. That is, if the user clicks on a focusable
child Component a of an inactive Frame b, the following
events will be dispatched and handled in order:

b will receive a WINDOW_ACTIVATED event.
Next, b will receive a WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS event.
Finally, a will receive a FOCUS_GAINED event.
If the user later clicks on a focusable child Component c
of another Frame d, the following events will be dispatched
and handled in order:
a will receive a FOCUS_LOST event.
b will receive a WINDOW_LOST_FOCUS event.
b will receive a WINDOW_DEACTIVATED event.
d will receive a WINDOW_ACTIVATED event.
d will receive a WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS event.
c will receive a FOCUS_GAINED event."

Note statement "The events are dispatched in the order in
which they are presented above." Also note list of events,
and example of dispatch order. These orders do NOT agree,
as indicated.
