[news.eclipse.platform.swt] JComboBox event not fired in SWT

[Raccoonwao <gemaspecial@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, everybody!

I got a JComboBox in SWT (JComboBox > JPanel > EmbeddedSwingComposite >
Composite)

I add the listeners as follows:

((JTextField)cmb.getEditor().getEditorComponent()).addKeyListener(new
KeyListener() { ... }

((JTextField)cmb.getEditor().getEditorComponent()).getDocument().addDocumentListener(new
DocumentListener() { ... }

cmb.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { ... }


Only ActionListener responses.  The other two are just likely to be
totally disappeared.

The identical code is placed in a Swing-only application works
perfect(i.e., I got all three kinds of events)



I google for some time and find this from SwingWT doc.  No sure if it is
very relevant.

protected void handleComboKeyStrokes()

    This routine will add the key handlers necessary for searching
through combos by the key pressed (as Windows does, and as Swing does).
This code really isn't too pretty, as SWT deactivates the key events if
SWT.READ_ONLY is specified, so I have to handle that too, also you can't
consume KeyEvents under a Combo (must be a bug), so I use a timer over
the event pump to reset values. As I say, it's dirty but it works.

Thanks for any bit help!!!
