Re: [platform-swt-dev] setSelection(1) not triggering widgetDefaultSelec

In addition to what Steve said, note
also that buttons (push buttons, radio buttons) don't ever get the DefaultSelection
event - they just get Selection. See the javadoc for Button.addSelectionListener.

You might want to look into Display.post
for your automated testing.
See the 2 examples on the SWT snippets
page, under "Display".

In SWT, programatically changing the selection does not send an event.
 I'll write a FAQ on this one day ...

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] setSelection(1) not triggering        widgetDefaultSelected event

When I do a 

cmd1.setSelection(1)

where cmd1 is a button or radio button the graphical object selection
changes as if the user selected it with the mouse.  However the underlying
event widgetDefaultSelected() is not kicked off as I had expected.  Is
this
a bug or a lack of understanding of how this should work on my part?  I
was
looking at this for doing some automated user interaction for testing.

Thanks,

Gary
