You ve yet to examine how to respond to events generated by the most basic of a computer s controls the mouse and the keyboard. Because virtually every computer has these important hardware controls you can confidently take advantage of them in your applets to collect various types of input. In this chapter you learn the secrets of mouse and keyboard handling in Java applets. The Event Object In order to understand how to respond to various types of events you need to know more about Java s Event class an object of which is passed to any event-handling method. When you want to respond to a Java button control for example you override the action method whose first argument is an Event object. You then examine the target field of the Event object to determine whether it was the http button control that generated the event. The Event class however defines many constants and data fields that provide information about the event represented by the object. First the Event class defines constants for all of the events to which an event-handling method can respond. In this chapter you ll learn about some of these constants which include MOUSE_DOWN MOUSE_UP and KEY_PRESS. The class also defines constants for special keys such as fl PGUP PGDN HOME and so on. Finally the Event class defines the data fields shown in Table . How you use these data fields depends on the type of event .
