(original) (raw)

Hi all,

� ��The case is about how to handle system selection when DefaultCaret.moveDot is invoked.�

In current implementation, the text component (like JTextField) related to the DefaultCaret�

instance will change the system selection because caret moves (as perform a "select"�

operation). However, there is an action in DnD that only the view needs to be restored in a�

selected status while the system selection should not be restored because it is not a�

"select" operation.�

� � The fix checks if the component related to the DefaultCaret instance owns the focus,

if it does, the action is treated as user selection and update "system selection"; else, the

action is thought to restore the visual status of the component only and does not update

"system selection".�

� � And, there is a regression testcase in the patch as well. The testcase is put in directory

JTextArea because the bug is reported to it.

� � I have tested it on linux. �

� � Windows is not affected by this bug and the regression test�case does not affect it as well.
