1. add KeyListener to target

target.addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {...

or
2. use direct method

// BUTTON ARRAY LISTENER
        for (i = 0; i < keyName.length; i++) {
            button[i].addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    //j3c
                    String s = target.getText() + e.getActionCommand();
                    target.setText(s);
                    //target.dispatchEvent(new KeyEvent(target, KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED, System.currentTimeMillis(), 0, keyEvent[i], KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED));
                }
            });
        }

    }

            });
        }

Is another one resolution. Just using dispatchEvent.
target not need additional listeners.
Example for button[0] and button[1]:

button[0].addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                target.dispatchEvent(new KeyEvent(target, KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED, System.currentTimeMillis(), 0, KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED, keyName[0].charAt(0)));
            }
        });
        button[1].addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                target.dispatchEvent(new KeyEvent(target, KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED, System.currentTimeMillis(), 0, KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED, keyName[1].charAt(0)));
            }
        });
        //....

or shorter version

for (int k = 0; k < keyName.length; k++) {

            button[k] = new JButton(keyName[k]);
            button[k].addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    target.dispatchEvent(new KeyEvent(target, KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED, System.currentTimeMillis(), 0, KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED, /* TODO: WANTED char  from e-event     */));
                }
            });
            button[k].setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 400));
            panel.add(button[k], c);

            c.gridx++;

        }

Dear Sir,
i have attached the whole code with class file for your consideration.
Infact this code was written in jdk1.2.2 and its working well there
but while migrated to java se 6 its not giving desired results
but it successfully compiled with java se 6.It has java se 6 compile classes in myproj.zip (attachment)
Action desired: While user click to virtual key it should type that letter to focused field but its not doing in java se 6.
Kindly help to resolve this problem

Thanks

In release 1.4, the focus subsystem was rearchitected.

Use the piece of code. This adds an AWTEventListener to receive all AWTEvents dispatched system-wide that conform to the given eventMask.

public GUILayer() {        
        Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().addAWTEventListener(new AWTEventListener() {

            public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent event) {
                System.out.println("AWTEventListener:eventDispatched " + event);
            }
        }, -1);
//...

VirtualKeyButton: change the source/target respectively to Component: usernameTextField.getTextField() and sfuIdTextField.getTextField(). Make same changes in constructor.

//...
 // Otherwise add a mouse motion listener that dispatches
        // a key typed event that matches the character the key
        // represents
        else {
            // create an anonymous class for handling the mousePressed events
            addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {

                public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt) {
                    if (keyEventManager != null) {

                        keyEventManager.keyTyped(
                                new KeyEvent(target, //VirtualKeyButton.this
                                KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED,
                                System.currentTimeMillis(),
                                0,
                                KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED,
                                theKey));
                    }
                }
            });
        }
    }

At and realize switching through buttons with ImageIcon.

Dear Sir.

[msalahu]

Thanks a lot
i used java.awt.Robot Class to resolve this and its working well
But i will do modify my code as u adviced and will test it and will inform you as well the latest progress
Thanks once again
