Alright guys, so right now I'm working on a program that finds the current focused window and adds a KeyListener to it. The problem is that unlike when you have a window running and you add a KeyListener to it and it stays working until you close the window, once I add the KeyListener to the focused window my program ends. What I want to do is to keep it running, that way whenever a key is presses the mouse will make a click. Here is my code:
import java.awt.KeyboardFocusManager;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.Window;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import java.awt.event.KeyListener;
public class TestClass implements KeyListener{
private KeyboardFocusManager m;
private Window w;
public void setUp(){
try{
Thread.sleep(5000);
m = KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager();
w = m.getFocusedWindow();
w.addKeyListener(this);
}catch(Exception e){}
}
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent event){
try{
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.mousePress(16);
robot.delay((int) Math.random()*150);
robot.mouseRelease(16);
}catch(Exception e){}
}
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent event){}
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent event){}
public static void main(String[] args){
new TestClass().setUp();
}
}Is there a way to listen to key events outside a window?
