A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
selectAll() does not work within a focusGained event. It
does by putting the JFormattedTextField in PERSIST focus
lost mode but when choosing other types and focus is lost
the cursor gets moved to the left side. The selectAll in
focusGained will not select the text.

I did a work around for this by invoking later the selectAll
().  I don't know if this is the most elegant or efficient
solutions but it gets the job done.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. add focusGained to the JFormattedTextField. Put the text
field in any state but PERSIST for focus lost.
2. tab in and out of this field.  This eleminates the mouse
problem.
3. witness the problem of not selecting the text.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expecting to see the selected text.

Actually nothing was selected.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
Invoking later the selectAll() in a runnable thread.

addFocusListener(new java.awt.event.FocusAdapter() {
      public void focusGained(java.awt.event.FocusEvent
evt) {
           SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
                 public void run() {
                      mySelf.selectAll();
                 }
            });
     }
});
