Re: Mouse class bug?



It always returns zero on a Mac. See the second entry (Radar #4008177) here:

I tried out the new Mouse class in Java 5 mentioned in John Zukowski's
article:

http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-tiger05245/?ca=dnt-621

public class Mouse {
   public static void main(String args[]) {;
     System.out.println(java.awt.MouseInfo.getNumberOfButtons());
   }
}

Result:

$ java5 Mouse
0

I knew Macs were button-limited, but this is ridiculous. Anyone else see
the same? Is this a bug or does MouseInfo start counting the number of
buttons from zero or some such weird thing?
