Problem description:

I used Snippet154, because I'm trying to understand
why my Swing component embedded in SWT does not
react on key events. To check what is happenening
here I added

frame.addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {

public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
System.out.println("keyPressed : " + e.paramString());
}

public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
System.out.println("keyTyped : " + e.paramString());
}

public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
System.out.println("keyReleased : " + e.paramString());
}

});

immediately before the readAndDispatch loop. Starting the test
program (Windows XP) and pressing any kind of key does not produce
any events (The listener is not called). The problem is: How
do I realize that?

Reason for the question: In my RCP app with a similar SWT_AWT
bridge I cannot call the help for the view presenting this
table. I thought it is related to the focus, but obviously
the table behaves as if it would have focus.

Any ideas are appreciated!

I apologize, this message was intended for the SWT group.
I'm forwarding it to that group, so please reply on that
group!

Thanks,
