Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1-b24 mixed mode)

I use Solaris 8, CDE Window Manager and Java SDK 2 v1.3.1. The keyboard is a
Sun type 6 USB keyboard. The keyboard layout is modified through xmodmaprc as
follows (to mime Hungarian keyboard layout in order to access hunarian accented
characters via one key press (remapped pairs: a'-;, e'-', i'-`, o'-=, o:-0, o"-
[, u'-], u:--, u"-\)):
keycode 59=	0xe1	0xc1	0x27	0x22
keycode 58=	0xe9	0xc9	0x3b	0x3a
keycode 60=	0xed	0xcd	0x60	0x7e
keycode 53=	0xf3	0xd3	0x3d	0x2b
keycode 46=	0xf6	0xd6	0x30	0x29
keycode 52=	0xfc	0xdc	0x2d	0x5f
keycode 54=	0xf5	0xd5	0x5b	0x7b
keycode 56=	0xfb	0xdb	0x5c	0x7c
keycode 55=	0xfa	0xda	0x5d	0x7d
keycode 125=	0xff1b	0xff1b	0xff1b	0xff1b
keycode 48=	0xffca	0xffca	0xffca	0xffca
keycode  102 = 0xffb7
keycode  99 = 0xffb4
keycode  100 = 0xffb5
keycode  101 = 0xffb6
keycode  94 = 0xffab
keycode  92 = 0xffd7
keycode  106 = 0xffff
keycode 104=	0xffb9
keycode 103=	0xffb8
keycode 96=	0xffb1
keycode 97=	0xffb2
keycode 98=	0xffb3
keycode 105=	0xffb0
keycode 35=	0x7a	0x5a
keycode 36=	0x79	0x59
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
remove Control = Control_L
keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
add Lock = Caps_Lock
add Control = Control_L
keycode 108 = NoSymbol

Though there's no problem with AWT components and the accented characters,
swing components does not receive KEY_PRESSED events for the 'accented' keys,
the key code in the events is always zero, and the key char differs in
KEY_RELEASED from that of KEY_TYPED in case of the super-ASCII unicode
characters.

The (somewhat edited) result of the test code is (P=pressed, T=typed,
R=released. The format is EventTypeKeyCode-KeyChar-(int)KeyChar). Keys pressed
are ;[=a in both cases
AWT component
P0-?-233 T0-?-233 R0-?-233
P0-?-245 T0-?-245 R0-?-245
P0-?-243 T0-?-243 R0-?-243
P65-a-97 T0-a-97 R65-a-97

Swing component
T0-?-233 R0-?-233 # missing key pressed event
T0-o-337 R0-?-245 # different (code page converted) key char in KEY_RELEASED
T0-?-243 R0-?-243
P65-a-97 T0-a-97 R65-a-97 # correct result for regular key

Listening to AWT key events provides an even weirder result... UNcomment
commented lines to experience it.

The test code follows:

import java.util.*;

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;


public class TestFrame extends JFrame
{
	public TestFrame()
	{
		addWindowListener(new ExitAdapter());
		
		TextField textField = new TextField();
		JTextField textField2 = new JTextField();
		
		getContentPane().add(textField, BorderLayout.NORTH);
		getContentPane().add(textField2, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
		
		KAdapter adapter = new KAdapter();
		textField2.addKeyListener(adapter);
		textField.addKeyListener(adapter);
	
		/*
		Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().addAWTEventListener(adapter,
			AWTEvent.KEY_EVENT_MASK);
		*/
	}
	
	
	
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		TestFrame frame = new TestFrame();
			
		frame.pack();
		frame.show();
	}
	
	
	class KAdapter extends java.awt.event.KeyAdapter implements
		java.awt.event.AWTEventListener
	{
		public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent event)
		{
			/*
			System.out.print(" AWT" + event.getID() + " ");
			*/
		}
		
		public void keyTyped(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e)
		{
			key(e, 'T');
		}
		public void keyPressed(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e)
		{
			key(e, 'P');
		}
		public void keyReleased(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e)
		{
			key(e, 'R');
		}
		public void key(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e, char type)
		{
			int code = e.getKeyCode();
			char khar = e.getKeyChar();
			int charInt = (int) khar;
			System.out.print(type);
			System.out.print(code);
			System.out.print('-');
			System.out.print(khar);
			System.out.print('-');
			System.out.print(charInt);
			System.out.print(' ');
			if (type == 'R')
				System.out.println();
		}
	};
}

I have not experienced these problems on Windows 2000, Java SDK 1.3.1,
Hungarian regional settings.

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
with French locale and French keyboard.


A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
KeyPressed Event is not called, when I pressed accented
characters from the French keyboard.

? 00B2 Superscript two
? 00E0 Latin small letter a with grave
? 00E7 Latin small letter c with cedilla
? 00E8 Latin small letter e with grave
? 00E9 Latin small letter e with acute
? 00F9 Latin small letter u with grave


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Run the following program
2. Key in the following list to jTextField1 from French
keyboard
//exp: the keycode is displayed as well as other keys.
//act: nothing is displayed.

? 00B2 Superscript two
? 00E0 Latin small letter a with grave
? 00E7 Latin small letter c with cedilla
? 00E8 Latin small letter e with grave
? 00E9 Latin small letter e with acute
? 00F9 Latin small letter u with grave


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected:
The appropriate keycode is displayed on the standard output,
after I key in the accented characters from French keyboard
as well as other key tops.
Actual:
//act: Following keys display nothing to the standard
output.

? 00B2 Superscript two
? 00E0 Latin small letter a with grave
? 00E7 Latin small letter c with cedilla
? 00E8 Latin small letter e with grave
? 00E9 Latin small letter e with acute
? 00F9 Latin small letter u with grave
