Description Patrick Wade 2002-08-29 10:33:00 UTC
Too many (up to thousands) of state-changed events are fired when a JLabel
element of a JList list is 'Grab focus'ed through the AT-POKE test tool.

Such a list is in 'ListDemo' in the SwingSet2 demo JFC app. The application
is unusable while these state changes are swamping, and usually lasts for
about 7 or 8 seconds. The delay is worsened by performing more actions
while the state changes are being fired.

Updating status_whiteboard field to reflect A11Y team's assessment 
of accessibility impact.
Comment 2 Calum Benson 2003-04-03 15:22:07 UTC
Woops, don't need to track this one with the status_whiteboard field.
Comment 3 Darren Kenny 2003-04-24 12:48:15 UTC
The cause of the events appears to be on the Java side. This
doesn't happen if you navigate to the window and click.

All the state-changed:focused events are for the same component, but
the number of events seems to be related to the number of items in the
list.

I also notice that if you subsequently move focus out of the frame
and back in again the events are sent again...

And another thing, calling grabFocus() on another element of the
list doesn't seem to generate ANY events at all.

Java bug 4856184 has been logged. 

Closing this bug as NOT GNOME
