Subject:   are key accelerators for FixedJButtons still broken?
Message-ID:  <199805250000.RAA07388@hub.freebsd.org>
index | next in thread | raw e-mail 

        i am using the JDK-1.1.5 and SwingSet-1.0.2 for FreeBSD.
        jdk-1.1.5 was downloaded from www.freebsd.org/java.
        swing-1.0.2 was downloaded from java.sun.com.

        i downloaded the HelloSwing.java code, compiled and it
        runs fine....but the alt-i key accelerator does not work.

        downloaded FixedJButton.java and compiled that will
        HelloSwing.java....no go.  alt-i does not work.

        anyone else seen this?  is there a known work around?

the workaround FixedJButton is described at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ui/swing/workaround.html

the code for FixedJButton.java is at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ui/swing/example-swing/FixedJButton.java

the code for HelloSwing.java is at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ui/swing/example-swing/HelloSwing.java

        here is the diff for the fix, as i understand it
        (this may be the crux of the problem ;)
