Eclipse 3.4.2 or 3.5 M6 IE 8.0 final See snippet below. The result for me is that the key listener is not called when I press the F2 key on 3.4 and 3.5. This worked in 3.3. See this snippet: public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { final Display display = new Display(); Shell shell = new Shell(display); shell.setLayout(new FillLayout()); Button button = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH); button.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.BEGINNING, SWT.CENTER, false, false)); button.setText("hi"); button.setFocus(); final Browser browser = new Browser(shell, SWT.NONE); browser.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.FILL, true, true)); browser.setText("Hello Word"); display.timerExec(2000, new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { Control focusControl = display.getFocusControl(); System.out.println(focusControl); focusControl.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() { @Override public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { System.out.println(e); } }); } }); shell.open(); while (!shell.isDisposed()) { if (!display.readAndDispatch()) { display.sleep(); } } } }
Move the mouse to select text in the browser so that display.getFocusControl properly returns the WebSite instance.
This seems to work fine when adding a key listener to Browser, however our environment requires us to set a key listener to the focus control. Alternatively, getFocusControl should really return the Browser instead of WebSite because otherwise one has to use internal OS dependent class-instances to check if the Browser is the focus control or not.
As a workaround for 3.4.2, would it be safe to call WebSite.getParent().getParent() to add the key listener to the Browser?
> safe to call WebSite.getParent().getParent() Yes this should be fine, there are a few places in WebSite where this is done. I think the best fix would be for getFocusControl() to answer the Browser, to be consistent with other platforms. Will talk to SSQ or SN about this.
