Does anyone have know of an easy way to get notification of all
application InputEvents other than a custom EventQueue or
registering Mouse/Key listeners on all windows?
We've been using a custom event queue for some time, but it's a
little messy when using our stuff as an applet or plugin, because
other people like to have custom event queue's, too, I guess.
Adding listeners to absolutely every app listener is a little
tedious too.
Check out java.awt.event.AWTEventListener and
Toolkit.addAWTEventListener(). I often use these to make sure we're
sending key or input method events correctly to a component. You
can also specify the kinds of events you are interested in, so you
don't get a blizzard of paint events when you want to track mouse
clicks, for example.
