Hi guys,
I'm looking to raise a focus lost event on a composite when a text widget
inside it loses focus. Can anyone help me?

I was thinking it would be something like this:

notifyListeners(SWT.FocusOut, new Event());

but i wasn't sure if there was some way to create the Event from a
FocusEvent.

Thanks,
Joe

You should not be raising a focus lost event in this case. Focus events are
already handled by the SWT widgets and introducing non-compliant events like
this will make you sad.

Instead of listening for focus lost on the composite, you should be
listening for SWT.Deactivate.
