Hello everyone,

In Java, I am adding a KeyListener to a JWindow, but it is not getting any key events. If I used the same code but extend a JFrame instead, then everything works fine.

public class MyWindow extends JWindow {
    ...
    ...
    private void initComponents() {
        ...
        ...
        addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {
            public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
                System.out.println("KEY PRESSED: " + e.getKeyCode());
            }

            public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
                System.out.println("KEY RELEASED: " + e.getKeyCode());
            }

            public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
                System.out.println("KEY TYPED: " +  e.getKeyCode());
            }

        });
    }
}

Anyone know how can I solve this by using a JWindow?

Please note that I am using Linux, so I am not sure if it is something to do with the platform.

Thanks
