1) The coordinates in a mouseEntered event when the mouse enters
from a different AWT component are in the coordinate space
of the component being exited, not the component being entered.

2) The coordinates in a mouseExited event when the mouse is
being moved from the AWT component to a native Windows95
application window are in the coordinate space of the native
Windows95 application window.

3) Also, when dragging, there is an extraneous mousePressed
event sent to a component immediately after the mouseExited
event.

These observations are based on examining the output of a
program with a Canvas object containing the following code.


    ...

    addMouseListener(this);
    addMouseMotionListener(this);

    ...

    public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent evt)
    {
        int x = evt.getX();
        int y = evt.getY();
        System.out.println("mouseEntered: " + x + ", " + y);
    }

    public void mouseExited(MouseEvent evt)
    {
        int x = evt.getX();
        int y = evt.getY();
        System.out.println("mouseExited: " + x + ", " + y);
    }

    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt)
    {
        int x = evt.getX();
        int y = evt.getY();
        System.out.println("mousePressed: " + x + ", " + y);
    }

Synopsis: mouseEntered() gets wrong coordinates

Description: 
The mouseEntered() Method of a MouseListener receives
incorrect coordinates when registered on a Component. It seems as if they
are relative to a parent Component. The Coordinates of
MouseMotionListener-Events are correct.

To Reproduce Problem:

Extend java.awt.Window.
Catch mouse entered events.
Obtain (x, y) via getX(), getY() of MouseEvent.

Actual Problem:

The obtained (x, y) coordinate is not relative to
the window, or even to the screen.
The values are given by:
       x = winLocation.x * 2 + relativeX
       y = winLocation.y * 2 + relativeY
The values should be:
       x = relativeX
       y = relativeY

Example Application:
/***************************

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class WindowErrorTest
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		Frame f = new Frame("WindowErrorTest");
		TextArea text = new TextArea();

		text.append("Move into and out of the window (on right).\n\n");
		text.append("Window size: 200x200, Window Pos: (400, 200)\n\n");
		text.append("event.getX() returns:\n");
		text.append("           x = winPos.x * 2 + relativeX\n\n");
		text.append("event.getY() returns:\n");
		text.append("           y = winPos.y * 2 + relativeY\n\n");

		f.add("Center", text);

		Window_Subclass w = new Window_Subclass(f, text);
		w.setBackground(Color.gray);

		f.addWindowListener(
			new WindowAdapter()
