JApplet/JPanel not receiving KeyListener events!
I cannot get my JPanel within my JApplet to receive keyboard events. I CANNOT FATHOM why!
Note that...
Clicking the panel (with mouse) before typing makes no difference. This is by far the most common advice I see given on the Net.
I have tried using the 'low-level' java.awt.KeyEventDispatcher interface. That makes no different either!
However, if I use Applet instead of JApplet, then the Applet DOES receive keyboard events. But even here, the moment I add a Panel to this Applet (the Panel is really where all my app/painting logic is), I once again stop receiving kb events (in my Panel)!
Now, I cannot simply use Applet (instead of JApplet) because, among other things, its onPaint gets a Gr开发者_JAVA技巧aphics (instead of a Graphics2D object). So, #3 is NOT a solution for me.
Things work like a charm in AppletViewer that comes with JDK.
I desperately need someone's help here. Spent last 2-3 days trying all kinds of permutations I don't even recall now.
My platform details:
Firefox 3.5.3
Fedora 11 on x86 (with latest updates/patches)
Java Plugin: tried both of these, made no difference.
3.1 IcedTea Java Web Browser Plugin 1.6 (fedora-29.b16.fc11-i386)
3.2 jdk1.6.0_16/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
Used the above jdk1.6.0_16 to compile my applet source.
Here's my code. Will greatly appreciate to hear from my fellow programmers... as I'm completely stuck!
Thanks,

MyAppletKeyListener listener = new MyAppletKeyListener();
// Panel related
// Note: I'd like this red panel to handle
// all my keyboard and mouse events.
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
panel.add(new JButton("test"));
panel.add(new JButton("test2"));
panel.setFocusable(true);
panel.requestFocus();
panel.setBackground(new Color(200, 0, 0));
panel.addKeyListener(listener);
panel.addMouseListener(listener);
// applet related
// Note: Added this only for debugging. I do NOT want
// to handle my mouse/kb events in the applet.
addMouseListener(this);
getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());
getContentPane().add(panel);
}
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
System.out.println("applet:mouseClicked");
}
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) { }
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) { }
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) { }
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) { }
}
The HTML:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<applet id="myApplet" code="TestApplet.class"
width="425"
height="150" >
</applet>
</body>
</html>
I found this on the net, and it solves the issue for me:
As for the fact that KeyListener does not work for JApplet as it does for Applet you should use the KeyEventDispatcher interface.
public class AppletMain extends JApplet implementsjava.awt.KeyEventDispatcher
Furthermore you have to set the KeyboardFocusManager to the Panel
KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager().addKeyEventDispatcher(this);Afterwards override the dispatchKeyEvent function of the interface:
@Override public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent e);This allows you to catch the KeyEvents as it is done with KeyListener.
I investigated the problem connected to my current project and explored some problems with focusability of JApplet class.
It is because why setFocusable(true);decided the problem.
You also may eventually need to add focus-capture call such as requestFocusInWindow(); to make it work propertly.
I had this problem with the sun-java-6 packages and the openjdk packages in both Ubuntu 9.04 and 10.10 with firefox version 3.6.11 and 3.6.14. I've discovered two workarounds: use Applet rather than JApplet, or implement a MouseListener which calls "requestFocus()" in the mousePressed(..) function.
