Bug 285658

Description Andrew Cho 2009-08-05 02:36:42 EDT

On Safari 4.0.2, if you create a Text widget with the SWT.MULTI style and add a ModifyListener to it, the ModifyEvent is only fired when when focus is lost from the text field.

Environment: Safari 4.0.2 on Windows XP or Windows Vista

Steps to reproduce:
* Create a Text widget with the SWT.MULTI style
* Add a ModifyListener to the widget
* Enter some text into the Text widget

Expected:
The ModifyEvent is fired whenever the text is modified

Actual:
The ModifyEvent is not fired and only fires when focus is lost from the text field

The following is a code snippet that demonstrates the problem with a Text field without the SWT.MULTI style for comparison.

final Text multiText = new Text(parent, SWT.MULTI | SWT.BORDER);
final Text singleText = new Text(parent, SWT.SINGLE | SWT.BORDER);

final ModifyListener listener = new ModifyListener() {
	@Override
	public void modifyText(final ModifyEvent event) {
		final Text text = (Text) event.getSource();
		if (text == multiText) {
			System.out.println("Modified multi '" + text.getText() + "'");
		} else {
			System.out.println("Modified single '" + text.getText() + "'");
		}
	}
};

multiText.addModifyListener(listener);
singleText.addModifyListener(listener);
