JCombo Problem

  Asked By: Jason    Date: Dec 16    Category: Java    Views: 523
  

I try to make JCombo able to listen to KeyAction event, seem like
it's not so simple as for JTextField although it should work as the
later.

Anyone here can advice why no KeyAction is fired although I type
things on the editable combo box

I think can try this also
JComboBox combo  = new JComboBox();
combo.setEditable(true);
JTextField textField2 = (JTextField)combo.getEditor().getEditorComponent();
textField2.addKeyListener(new KeyActionHandler());
