Hi all,
I'm creating an application by using the J2SE v 1.4.2_10 SDK with NetBeans 4.1 Bundle. I have created 4 button and handles event each. I would like to create a hotkey for each button, "F2" key for jButtton2, "F3" key for jButton3, "F8" key for jButton4, "F1" key for jButton5, once i click on the key, the event will be triggered and the coding inside will be executed.
Actually I have read through a few including How to Write a Key Listener, How to Write a Component Listener, How to Write an Action Listener, How to Use Actions, How to Use Key Bindings... but i really not so clear about that and don't know how to apply that into my task... Hope someone can help me...Thanks
The following is part of my coding...
