JDK-4069679 - Key mapping for some keys is inconsistent.
Description
======================================================================
No KeyEvent seems to be sent att all to keyPressed when I press
the ","/"Del" key on my (Swedish) keyboard and NumLock is selected.

Something like  KeyEvent.VK_SEPARATER, KeyEvent.VK_COMMA, or 
KeyEvent.VK_PERIOD was expected. Every thing else seems to come through.

Using jdk 1.1.3 this key sends del (keycode 127).
(the minus key, however, sends "=" (keycode 61); whre
jdk 1.2 beta 2 sends the correct "-" (keycode 109))

My code is available upon request.

EVALUATION Name: dmR10075 Date: 02/27/2004 Unable to reproduce the problem with 1.5. ",","Del","." generate the same events regardless of NumLock state. Closing as not reproducible. ###@###.### 2004-2-27 ======================================================================
