Constructor Detail

KeyEvent

public KeyEvent(Keyboard source,
                int id,
                long when,
                int modifiers,
                int keyCode,
                char keyChar,
                int location)

Method Detail

getKeyChar

public char getKeyChar()

setKeyChar

public void setKeyChar(char keyChar)

getKeyCode

public int getKeyCode()

Will actually only return key codes that don't have ASCII/Unicode equivalents, such as arrow keys (e.g. VK_UP). Otherwise it just returns the ASCII value.

Returns:

the key code

setKeyCode

public void setKeyCode(int keyCode)

getKeyLocation

public int getKeyLocation()

Return the location of the keypress. e.g. Shift can be on left or right of keyboard.

Returns:

0

getID

public int getID()

isShiftDown

public boolean isShiftDown()

Returns whether or not the Shift modifier is down on this event.

isControlDown

public boolean isControlDown()

Returns whether or not the Control modifier is down on this event.

isMetaDown

public boolean isMetaDown()

Returns whether or not the Meta modifier is down on this event.

isAltDown

public boolean isAltDown()

Returns whether or not the Alt modifier is down on this event.

isAltGraphDown

public boolean isAltGraphDown()

Returns whether or not the AltGraph modifier is down on this event.

getWhen

public long getWhen()

getModifiers

public int getModifiers()

consume

public void consume()

Consumes this event so that it will not be processed in the default manner by the source which originated it.

isConsumed

public boolean isConsumed()

Returns whether or not this event has been consumed.

See Also:

consume()

isActionKey

public boolean isActionKey()

Returns whether the key in this event is an "action" key. Typically an action key does not fire a unicode character and is not a modifier key.

Returns:

true if the key is an "action" key, false otherwise

getSource

public Keyboard getSource()

Returns the source of the key event. In JDK 4.0 and up this is supposed to be a Component object. MIDP and leJOS has no Component, so leJOS maps KeyEvents directly to the keyboard.

Returns:

the source of the key event
