JDK-4449779 - Modifier Masks set for MouseEvent is not correct
Description

Name: yyT116575			Date: 06/18/2001


java version "1.4.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta-b65)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta-b65, mixed mode)

The problem is that if your mouse is set up in a left-handed configuration, with
the mouse buttons switched (left / right click switched) then you click on an
internal frame's title bar and drag to move it, the window won't drag to the new
location.

  To reproduce:

  Set your mouse to a left-handed configuration.  On my Win2K machine I do
this by going to Start -> Control Panels -> Mouse and setting
  Left Button = Right-click
  Right Button = Click

  Run the SwingSet2 demo.  Go to the internal frame tab.  Try to drag windows
  as described above.

This function works on JDK 1.3.1.

EVALUATION Code in MetalInternalFrameUI.java is incorrect. It should be looking for the BUTTON1_DOWN_MASK in the modifiers. There seems to also be a bug in the MouseEvents being generated because the buttons aren't being swapping like they should. joutwate@eng 2001-06-20 Attaching sample program to show mouse event problems. Click and drag in the window and note which mouse events occur. The BUTTON1_CHANGE_EVENT is correct on left handed mice while the BUTTON1_DOWN_EVENT is incorrect. Reassigning to AWT. joutwate@eng 2001-06-21 Win32 only richard.ray@eng 2001-06-26 This is a duplicate of the problem listed in 4449779. richard.ray@eng 2001-06-26
