Description

Name: krT82822			Date: 12/20/98


Using a German Keyboard with JDK 1.2 in all awt TextComponents
the Keys 'Greater' and 'Less' are not recognized.
KeyPressed events report an unknown Keycode, KeyTyped Events 
work fine.

TextComponents display a question mark.

JTextComponents work.

Sourcecode:

import java.awt.*;

public class LTBugTest{

  public static void main (String[] args) {
    Frame f=new Frame("Enter \">\" or \"<\"") ;
    Component field=new TextField(20);
    f.add("Center",field);
    f.pack();
    f.show();
  }

}
