  • Adding KeyListener to a JWindow not getting any key events

    - by Untitled
    Hello everyone, In Java, I am adding a KeyListener to a JWindow, but it is not getting any key events. If I used the same code but extend a JFrame instead, then everything works fine. public class MyWindow extends JWindow { ... ... private void initComponents() { ... ... addKeyListener(new KeyListener() { public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println("KEY PRESSED: " + e.getKeyCode()); } public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println("KEY RELEASED: " + e.getKeyCode()); } public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println("KEY TYPED: " + e.getKeyCode()); } }); } } Anyone know how can I solve this by using a JWindow? Please note that I am using Linux, so I am not sure if it is something to do with the platform. Thanks

  • Unexpected StackOverflowError in KeyListener

    - by BillThePlatypus
    I am writing a program that can write sets of questions for review to a file for another program to read. The possible answers are typed into JTextFields at the bottom. It has code to ensure that there won't bew more than one blank JTextField at the end. When I type in answers, at varying points it will throw a StackOverflowError. The stack trace: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.StackOverflowError at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:232) at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:232) at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:232) at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:232) and the code: package writer; import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Font; import java.awt.FontMetrics; import java.awt.GridLayout; import java.awt.Insets; import java.awt.event.KeyEvent; import java.awt.event.KeyListener; import java.util.ArrayList; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JScrollPane; import javax.swing.JSplitPane; import javax.swing.JTextArea; import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.event.DocumentEvent; import javax.swing.event.DocumentListener; import main.QuestionSet; public class SetPanel extends JPanel implements KeyListener { private QuestionSet set; private WriterPanel writer; private JPanel top=new JPanel(new BorderLayout()),controls=new JPanel(new GridLayout(1,0)),answerPanel=new JPanel(new GridLayout(0,1)); private JSplitPane split; private JTextField title=new JTextField(); private JTextArea question=new JTextArea(); private ArrayList<JTextField> answers=new ArrayList<JTextField>(); public SetPanel(QuestionSet s,WriterPanel writer) { super(new BorderLayout()); top.add(controls,BorderLayout.PAGE_START); title.setFont(title.getFont().deriveFont(40f)); title.addKeyListener(new KeyListener(){ @Override public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { title.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(title.getText())); } @Override public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { title.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(title.getText())); } @Override public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { title.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(title.getText())); } }); title.getDocument().addDocumentListener(new DocumentListener(){ @Override public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub fitTitle(); } @Override public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub fitTitle(); } @Override public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub fitTitle(); } }); top.add(title,BorderLayout.PAGE_END); this.add(top,BorderLayout.PAGE_START); question.setLineWrap(true); question.setWrapStyleWord(true); question.setFont(question.getFont().deriveFont(20f)); question.addKeyListener(new KeyListener(){ @Override public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub question.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(question.getText())); } @Override public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub question.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(question.getText())); } @Override public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub question.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(question.getText())); }}); split=new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT,true,new JScrollPane(question),new JScrollPane(answerPanel)); split.setDividerLocation(150); this.add(split,BorderLayout.CENTER); answers.add(new JTextField()); answerPanel.add(answers.get(0)); answers.get(0).addKeyListener(this); } private void fitTitle() { if(title==null||title.getText().equals("")) return; //title.setText(WriterPanel.convertString(title.getText())); String text=title.getText(); Insets insets=title.getInsets(); int width=title.getWidth()-insets.left-insets.right; int height=title.getHeight()-insets.top-insets.bottom; Font root=title.getFont().deriveFont((float)height); FontMetrics m=title.getFontMetrics(root); if(m.stringWidth(text)<width) { title.setFont(title.getFont().deriveFont((float)height)); return; } float delta=-100; while(Math.abs(delta)>.1f) { m=title.getFontMetrics(root); int w=m.stringWidth(text); if(w==width) break; if(Math.signum(w-width)==Math.signum(delta)||root.getSize2D()+delta<0) { delta/=-10; continue; } root=root.deriveFont(root.getSize2D()+delta); } title.setFont(root); } private void fixAnswers() { //System.out.println(answers); while(answers.get(answers.size()-1).getText().equals("")&&answers.size()>1&&answers.get(answers.size()-2).getText().equals("")) removeAnswer(answers.size()-1); if(!answers.get(answers.size()-1).getText().equals("")) { answers.add(new JTextField()); answerPanel.add(answers.get(answers.size()-1)); answers.get(answers.size()-2).removeKeyListener(this); answerPanel.revalidate(); } answers.get(answers.size()-1).addKeyListener(this); } private void removeAnswer(int i) { answers.remove(i); answerPanel.remove(i); answerPanel.revalidate(); } @Override public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub } @Override public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub fixAnswers(); } @Override public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub } } Thank you in advance for any help.

  • android keylistener losing key taps

    - by miannelle
    I am using a keylistener to get key taps. The problem is that once you tap the delete key, the next key tap is not registering. The key tap after that keeps working. If I tap 2 deletes in a row, they work, just no other keys. They just disappear. I put in a log test before the "if (keycode" section and it shows nothing after the first delete is pressed, unless it is another delete. I am using the following code (Thanks Shawn).: itemPrice.setKeyListener(new CalculatorKeyListener()); itemPrice.setRawInputType(Configuration.KEYBOARD_12KEY); class CalculatorKeyListener extends NumberKeyListener { public int getInputType() { return InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER; } @Override public boolean onKeyDown(View view, Editable content, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) { if (keyCode >= KeyEvent.KEYCODE_0 && keyCode <= KeyEvent.KEYCODE_9) { digitPressed(keyCode - KeyEvent.KEYCODE_0); } else if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL) { deletePressed(); } return true; } @Override protected char[] getAcceptedChars() { return new char[] { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }; } } With this problem the keylistener provides no value to me. There must be something that I am missing. Thanks,

  • BlackBerry - KeyListener with global scope

    - by Abs
    Hello all, I am new to BlackBerry App development. I want to be able to listen for keypress events whenever the BlackBerry (8900 in my case) is on and on all screens is this possible? If so, it would be great for someone to direct me in the right direction. I am already having a look at Interface KeyListener. import net.rim.device.api.system.*; Thanks all

  • KeyListener problem

    - by rgksugan
    In my apllication i am using a jpanel in which i want to add a key listener. I did it. But it doesnot work. Is it because i am using a swingworker to update the contents of the panel every second. Here is my code to update the panel RenderedImage image = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream((byte[]) get())); Graphics graphics = remote.rdpanel.getGraphics(); if (graphics != null) { Image readyImage = new ImageIcon(UtilityFunctions.convertRenderedImage(image)).getImage(); graphics.drawImage(readyImage, 0, 0, remote.rdpanel.getWidth(), remote.rdpanel.getHeight(), null); }

  • Swing's KeyListener and multiple keys pressed at the same time.

    - by Negai
    Hi everyone, is there any conventional way in swing of tracking down the events, when two keyboard keys are pressed at the same time? I have a couple of ideas e.g. remembering the key and event generation time so that we could in a consecutive event handler invocation check the time difference between these two events and decide, whether it's a two-button event or not. Phew. But it looks like a kludge. Thanks in advance.

  • Blackberry (Java) - Can't get KeyListener to work

    - by paullb
    I am trying to get the KeyListener working for Blackberry, but none of the Dialogs pop up indicating that a key has been pressed (see code below, each action has a dialog popup in them). Any ideas on what i might be doing wrong? public class CityInfo extends UiApplication implements KeyListener { static CityInfo application; public static void main(String[] args) { //create a new instance of the application //and start the application on the event thread application.enterEventDispatcher(); } public CityInfo() { //display a new screen application = new CityInfo(); pushScreen(new WorkflowDisplayScreen()); this.addKeyListener(this); } public boolean keyChar(char arg0, int arg1, int arg2) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub Dialog.alert("key pressed : " + arg0); return true; } public boolean keyDown(int keycode, int time) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub Dialog.alert("keyDown : " + keycode); return false; } public boolean keyRepeat(int keycode, int time) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub Dialog.alert("keyRepeat : " + keycode); return false; } public boolean keyStatus(int keycode, int time) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub Dialog.alert("keyStatus : " + keycode); return false; } public boolean keyUp(int keycode, int time) { Dialog.alert("keyUp : " + keycode); // TODO Auto-generated method stub return false; } } I also tried implementing keyChar on the MainScreen class but that did not yield any results either.

  • Java KeyListener in separate class

    - by Chris
    So I have my main class here, where basically creates a new jframe and adds a world object to it. The world object is basically where all drawing and keylistening would take place... public class Blobs extends JFrame{ public Blobs() { super("Blobs :) - By Chris Tanaka"); setVisible(true); setResizable(false); setSize(1000, 1000); setIgnoreRepaint(true); setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE); add(new World()); } public static void main(String[] args) { new Blobs(); } } How exactly would you get key input from the world class? (So far I have my world class extending a jpanel and implementing a keylistener. In the constructor i addKeyListener(this). I also have these methods since they are auto implemented: public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_W) System.out.println("Hi"); } public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {} public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {} However this does not seem to work?

  • my jComboBox does not react to my keyListener and actionPerform perfroms weired stuff

    - by aladdin
    hi I am trying to search for UserName and return values onto jComboBox, here is the code public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent e) { sr = new Search(((String) jComboBoxReceiver.getSelectedItem())); usrList = sr.searchUser(); String[] userList = new String[usrList.size()] ; for(int i=0;i<usrList.size();i++){ userList[i]= usrList.get(i).getUserName(); } model = new DefaultComboBoxModel(userList); jComboBoxReceiver.setModel(model); } However, if i do that, it does perform correctly, however, it will go search for the first item again, which is very confusing... then i tried using key Pressed if(e.getKeyCode()==13){ sr = new Search(((String) jComboBoxReceiver.getSelectedItem())); usrList = sr.searchUser(); String[] userList = new String[usrList.size()] ; for(int i=0;i<usrList.size();i++){ userList[i]= usrList.get(i).getUserName(); } model = new DefaultComboBoxModel(userList); jComboBoxReceiver.setModel(model); } And this one does not react at all ...

  • Java/Swing: Problem with key listener

    - by Mike
    I have a search dialog with a JTextField that's being used as a search box. When the user types something, it searches the DB, shows the result in a JTable and selects the first item in it. If the first result is what they were looking for, I want to let them quickly accept the dialog, by pressing Enter (while the JTextField is focused). So I added a KeyListener to the JTextField and it's working OK. Now the problem: The user opens can open the dialog by pressing Enter when a "Search" button on the dialog's parent frame is focused. The dialog is displayed and the JTextField gets the keyReleased event (from the Enter key that displayed it), so it shows up and closes. If the user holds Enter down, then the JTextField receives the keyPressed, keyTyped and keyReleased events. How can I fix without resorting to ugly workarounds? Platform is Windows 7 x64, btw. Test NetBeans project here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6354360/KeyListenerTest.zip Thanks.

  • JPanel not listening to key event when there is a child component with JButton on it

    - by Yifu
    I'm working on a map editor for my college project. And I had a problem that the map panel is not listening key event while it should. This happens when I add a ToolBarPane (which extends JPanel) with JComponent such as JButton, JComboBox that implements ActionListener on it AND the map panel (which extends the JPanel) together on to the Frame (I used BorderLayout). I have System.out.println statement to test if the key press is received, and it's not printing, if I remove the ToolBar, the key listener works again, so is the mouseListenner is disabled just like the keyListener, which means I can't handle press events etc, but the mouseListener works fine and I can still handle mouse move event. Here is a screen shot how it works without the ToolBarPane http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/3232/sampleku.png note that you can use the mouse to put images on the map, you can also select images using the mouse just like a laser tool, and by pressing number key you can switch between different images, this works fine until I add the ToolBarPane which shows like this: img291.imageshack.us/img291/8020/failve.png (please add http before that, i can only post one hyperlink) (I can't post images here cuz im a new user) With the ToolBarPane on I was no longer able to handle the key event. I guess it might by that the focus as been transfered to that panel somehow, but not sure at all. Does and body know this and can help me out? Thanks very much

  • trouble running smooth animation in thread only when using key listener

    - by heysuse renard
    first time using a forum for coding help so sorry if i post this all wrong. i have more than a few classes i don't think screenManger or core holds the problem but i included them just incase. i got most of this code working through a set of tutorials. but a certain point started trying to do more on my own. i want to play the animation only when i'm moving my sprite. in my KeyTest class i am using threads to run the animation it used to work (poorly) but now not at all pluss it really gunks up my computer. i think it's because of the thread. im new to threads so i'm not to sure if i should even be using one in this situation or if its dangerous for my computer. the animation worked smoothly when i had the sprite bouce around the screen forever. the animation loop played with out stopping. i think the main problem is between the animationThread, Sprite, and keyTest classes, but itcould be more indepth. if someone could point me in the right direction for making the animation run smoothly when i push down a key and stop runing when i let off it would be greatly apriciated. i already looked at this Java a moving animation (sprite) obviously we were doing the same tutorial. but i feel my problem is slightly different. p.s. sorry for the typos. import java.awt.*;

  • "Forwarding" keypresses from an applet to a JFrame

    - by hansengel
    I have a JFrame which contains a JApplet. There are shortcut keys that I have configured for the JFrame that work fine when the focus is on some panel of it, but once I click into the applet, none of the shortcut keys work anymore. Is there any way that I can forward these key presses to the JFrame so that the events are still fired?

    - by rgksugan
    In my apllication i am using a jpanel in which i want to add a key listener. I did it. But it doesnot work. Is it because i am using a swingworker to update the contents of the panel every second. Here is my code to update the panel RenderedImage image = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream((byte[]) get())); Graphics graphics = remote.rdpanel.getGraphics(); if (graphics != null) { Image readyImage = new ImageIcon(UtilityFunctions.convertRenderedImage(image)).getImage(); graphics.drawImage(readyImage, 0, 0, remote.rdpanel.getWidth(), remote.rdpanel.getHeight(), null); }

  • Java how does Key Event Handling Mechanism(KeyListeners notified) work ?

    - by Carbonizer
    How does application/JVM know which classes if implemented key handling interfaces ? Does it use java Reflections or does it check all the classes for methods ? How can a application or executing JVM understanding to deliver the user event or call the specific methods on a class that implemented the keylistener interface. Does it look at all the classes if those methods are implemented or how does it know which classes implmented keylistener interface ? If you dont implement the keylistener Interface for a class but still implmentation all its methods. Do the class still process the user event occurred ?

  • How can I Implement KeyListeners/ActionListeners into the JFrame?

    - by A.K.
    I'll get to the point: I have a player in my game that you control with the keyboard yet the key methods in the player class and ActionListener w/ KeyAdapter in the Board class don't seem to fire. So far I've tried adding these key methods into the JFrame, doesn't seem to let me move him even though other objects that I have (enemies) can move fine. Here's part of the JFrame class with the event listeners: frm.addKeyListener(KeyBoardListener); public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) { nSound.play(); StartB.setContentAreaFilled(false); cards.remove(StartB); frm.remove(TitleL); frm.remove(cards); frm.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 1)); frm.add(nBoard); //Add Game "Tiles" Or Content. x = 1200 nBoard.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(1200, 420)); cards.revalidate(); frm.validate(); } public KeyListener KeyBoardListener = new KeyListener() { @Override public void keyPressed(KeyEvent args0) { int key = args0.getKeyCode(); if(key == KeyEvent.VK_LEFT) { nBoard.S.vx = -4; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT) { nBoard.S.vx = 4; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_UP) { nBoard.S.vy = -4; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_DOWN) { nBoard.S.vy = 4; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_SPACE) { nBoard.S.fire(); } } @Override public void keyReleased(KeyEvent args0) { int key = args0.getKeyCode(); if(key == KeyEvent.VK_LEFT) { nBoard.S.vx = 0; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT) { nBoard.S.vx = 0; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_UP) { nBoard.S.vy = 0; } if(key == KeyEvent.VK_DOWN) { nBoard.S.vy = 0; } } @Override public void keyTyped(KeyEvent args0) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub } };

  • Improving my first Clojure program

    - by StackedCrooked
    After a few weekends exploring Clojure I came up with this program. It allows you to move a little rectangle in a window. Here's the code: (import java.awt.Color) (import java.awt.Dimension) (import java.awt.event.KeyListener) (import javax.swing.JFrame) (import javax.swing.JPanel) (def x (ref 0)) (def y (ref 0)) (def panel (proxy [JPanel KeyListener] [] (getPreferredSize [] (Dimension. 100 100)) (keyPressed [e] (let [keyCode (.getKeyCode e)] (if (== 37 keyCode) (dosync (alter x dec)) (if (== 38 keyCode) (dosync (alter y dec)) (if (== 39 keyCode) (dosync (alter x inc)) (if (== 40 keyCode) (dosync (alter y inc)) (println keyCode))))))) (keyReleased [e]) (keyTyped [e]))) (doto panel (.setFocusable true) (.addKeyListener panel)) (def frame (JFrame. "Test")) (doto frame (.add panel) (.pack) (.setDefaultCloseOperation JFrame/EXIT_ON_CLOSE) (.setVisible true)) (defn drawRectangle [p] (doto (.getGraphics p) (.setColor (java.awt.Color/WHITE)) (.fillRect 0 0 100 100) (.setColor (java.awt.Color/BLUE)) (.fillRect (* 10 (deref x)) (* 10 (deref y)) 10 10))) (loop [] (drawRectangle panel) (Thread/sleep 10) (recur)) Despite being an experienced C++ programmer I found it very challenging to write even a simple application in a language that uses a radically different style than what I'm used to. On top of that, this code probably sucks. I suspect the globalness of the various values is a bad thing. It's also not clear to me if it's appropriate to use references here for the x and y values. Any hints for improving this code are welcome.

  • Structure of a correctly implemented JTable with TableModel and Listeners?

    - by bamboocha
    I am pretty new to Java and its JTables and this is where I am struggling at the moment. I need to create a GUI which shows me results of a sql query like SELECT * FROM tblPeople WHERE name='Doe'. My idea was to create a a JFrame which displays a JTable with all found records. Besides this, I need to also implement some code to handle when a user is double clicking a record or selecting it by using his arrow keys (additional feature: pressing 12(e.g.) should select the 12th record). What is the best way to structure my program (what classes do I need and especially where do I store my logic)? I came up with structuring it the following way: Main.java ("view") SQLConnection.java PeopleTableModel.java (only stores and returns data given by the passed ResultSet, "model" inherits from DefaultTableModel) PeopleTable.java (stores basically all my logic including KeyListener and MouseListener, "controller", inherits from JTable) Are there better ways to achieve my goals? If so, what are they?

  • what localization changes are needed for Arabic with Java Applet

    - by Tom
    How big task is it to implement support for Arabic localization, our Java 1.5 Applet was designed as fully localizable (european languages) but now we plan to add also arabic as a new language. We are using custom GUI text i/o components inherited from Component class using e.g. Drawstring, how well is arabic supported within Component class ? The keyboard input is done with KeyListener getKeyChar, getKeyCode etc.

  • How to know when a user has really released a key in Java?

    - by Luis Soeiro
    (Edited for clarity) I want to detect when a user presses and releases a key in Java Swing, ignoring the keyboard auto repeat feature. I also would like a pure Java approach the works on Linux, Mac OS and Windows. Requirements: When the user presses some key I want to know what key is that; When the user releases some key, I want to know what key is that; I want to ignore the system auto repeat options: I want to receive just one keypress event for each key press and just one key release event for each key release; If possible, I would use items 1 to 3 to know if the user is holding more than one key at a time (i.e, she hits 'a' and without releasing it, she hits "Enter"). The problem I'm facing in Java is that under Linux, when the user holds some key, there are many keyPress and keyRelease events being fired (because of the keyboard repeat feature). I've tried some approaches with no success: Get the last time a key event occurred - in Linux, they seem to be zero for key repeat, however, in Mac OS they are not; Consider an event only if the current keyCode is different from the last one - this way the user can't hit twice the same key in a row; Here is the basic (non working) part of code: import java.awt.event.KeyListener; public class Example implements KeyListener { public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { } public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println("KeyPressed: "+e.getKeyCode()+", ts="+e.getWhen()); } public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println("KeyReleased: "+e.getKeyCode()+", ts="+e.getWhen()); } } When a user holds a key (i.e, 'p') the system shows: KeyPressed: 80, ts=1253637271673 KeyReleased: 80, ts=1253637271923 KeyPressed: 80, ts=1253637271923 KeyReleased: 80, ts=1253637271956 KeyPressed: 80, ts=1253637271956 KeyReleased: 80, ts=1253637271990 KeyPressed: 80, ts=1253637271990 KeyReleased: 80, ts=1253637272023 KeyPressed: 80, ts=1253637272023 ... At least under Linux, the JVM keeps resending all the key events when a key is being hold. To make things more difficult, on my system (Kubuntu 9.04 Core 2 Duo) the timestamps keep changing. The JVM sends a key new release and new key press with the same timestamp. This makes it hard to know when a key is really released. Any ideas? Thanks

    Hi, there's a swing JTextField, and I want to add a listener, so whenever the users types a single letter, there's an event. There's a ValueChanged event in scala api, but I don't get it what's it's peer. So which one Listener should I use? KeyListener and implement reasonably just one method?
