I am trying to make a Date/time Spinner were I allow overwriting of
the characters while moving the cursor. All the logic to move the
cursor and allowing the overwrite seems to be working ok, but the call
to e.consume() doesn't consume the key event so I get two characters
written. For example:
2007/100 13:12:34 is the time string. I move mouse in front the 1 in
the minute field and type 3. What I want is to overwrite the 1 with
the 3 and reset the cursor right after the new 3 character to get
2007/100 13:32:34, but instead the I get 2007/100 13:332:34 with the
cursor after the second 3. The problem appears to be the e.consume()
call is not working giving me a double 33.
Googling, I saw there were a bug re****ts/comments on this type of
problem but according to sun it was fix by java 1.4 (I compiled at 1.5
and 1.6 without any change). I must be doing something wrong, but
what?
