Serious problem with Robot class

[Vinicius Souza]

Hi guys, how are you!
So, Im create a remote control program and all going nice and Im using Robot.keyPress to send keys to the keyboard with sucess except if the key code is above 127. When the key code is above 127 the Robot just hangs and never return from keyPress method. Is robot keypress method only for 127 and bellow codes?
Obs. This occurs only with WinXp I tested with SuSe Linux and works perfectly.
Thanks!

Could you post your code?

Do you debug in windows?

Do you recieve a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException in windows?

The keys below 128 are the normal alpha printable codes. That's the distinction that happens at 127/128.

No idea what you're trying to do really, but I think the problem might be that you aren't using a high level enough keyboard handler. You're using routines from down in where the distinction matters. Or the opposite could be the problem - using too high a level routine that filters out keys. At any rate, the problem is with the keyboard handler.
