public class FocusEvent

extends ComponentEvent

A low-level event which indicates that a component has gained or lost the keyboard focus. This low-level event is generated by a component (such as a text field). The event is passed to every FocusListener or FocusAdapter object which registered to receive such events using the component's addFocusListener method. (FocusAdapter objects implement the FocusListener interface.) Each such listener object gets this FocusEvent when the event occurs.

There are two levels of focus change events: permanent and temporary. Permanent focus change events occur when focus is directly moved from one component to another, such as through calls to requestFocus() or as the user uses the Tab key to traverse components. Temporary focus change events occur when focus is temporarily gained or lost for a component as the indirect result of another operation, such as window deactivation or a scrollbar drag. In this case, the original focus state will automatically be restored once that operation is finished, or, for the case of window deactivation, when the window is reactivated. Both permanent and temporary focus events are delivered using the FOCUS_GAINED and FOCUS_LOST event ids; the levels may be distinguished in the event using the isTemporary() method.

Constructor Detail

FocusEvent

public FocusEvent(Component source,
                  int id,
                  boolean temporary)

Constructs a FocusEvent object and identifies whether or not the change is temporary.

Parameters:

source - the Component that originated the event
