The following checkboxes in lists & tables are identified as checkbox in MS 
Inspect but they don't behave correctly w/ JAWS. Checkboxes are identified as 
Graphics.

Windows / Preferences +
1. Workbench / Label Decoration 
2. Debug / Debug Action Group
3. Help
4. Java / Debug / Step Filtering
5. Java / Templates
6. Plug-in Development / Source Code Location
7. Plug-in Development / Target Platform
8. Team / Ignored Resources
9. Validation

Not sure what can be done about this. They *are* graphics in these cases, I 
believe, since the checkbox behavior is being emulated.

VI to investigate.

Comment 3 Veronika Irvine 2002-06-25 10:23:15 EDT

What version of Jaws and what version of eclipse are you using to test this 
with?

I just tried it with Jaws 4.01.227 and Eclipse GM2 and Jaws reports the 
checkboxes correctly.

JAWS 4.02 and eclipse F3

Comment 5 Veronika Irvine 2002-06-25 13:30:27 EDT

Are you sure you are using eclipse F3?  This looks like a duplicate of 
http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=15575 which was fixed and verified 
in F2.

Check the version on the swt dll (look for plugins\org.eclipse.swt.win32_2.0.0
\os\win32\x86\swt-win32-2042.dll or greater).

Comment 6 mojit 2002-06-25 13:53:08 EDT

Tried with F3 - swt-win32-2045.dll and F4 - swt-win32-2047.dll and had the same 
problem.

Comment 7 Veronika Irvine 2002-06-25 15:56:58 EDT

In order to make it work, you need to do the following:

Open Eclipse and hit INSERT + F2.
In the "Run JAWS Manager" dialog select "Configuration Manager".
In the "Jaws Configuration Manager" that opens up, select "Set Options" and 
then select "Advanced Options".
Check "Rely on MSAA for List views".
Hit the OK button.
Choose File -> Save from the menu bar.

Now when you go to the checkbox lists you will get the "Checkbox, Checked" 
result.

thank you, it worked

Comment 9 Mike Wilson 2002-06-26 09:26:41 EDT

Sounds like this should be readme'ed. 

Comment 10 mojit 2002-06-28 10:30:25 EDT

is this going to be in the eclipse docs

Comment 11 Veronika Irvine 2002-06-28 10:43:58 EDT

It is included in the Eclipse readme.

Reopening PR.

This works for lists but does not work for checkbox trees.

STEPS
1) Select a Java Class
2) Select Generate Getter and Setter
3) A tree will open but the check state of the widgets will not be reported by 
JAWS.

Comment 14 Veronika Irvine 2003-01-29 14:31:38 EST

The IAccessible support for checkboxes in table and tree has been provided by 
SWT and the Inspector shows the correct state and role info.

This is a problem with Jaws not using the information provided by IAccessible 
and it may be addressed in the latest version of Jaws.
