<Swing Dev> <Swing dev>[13] Review request for JDK-8216971: [macosx swing] For JCheckBoxMenuItem actionPerformed() is called twice, when apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true and modifier is InputEvent.META_DOWN_MASK

[Krishna Addepalli]

Hi Manajit,

Per our discussion, The cause of the problem is : 1), Key Event being sent from the OS to the application - which the Java layer processes it correctly
2) The Mac OS calling the handleAction function directly on the NSMenutItem - although as per your description, there is no code which maps the hot key to this widget in the native layer.
Ideally, since the OS is recognising the key combination, that key event should not be delivered again to the application. Or, it should be that the key event is not recognised and hence delivered to the application.

Can you check why in this case, we are getting the key event as well as the handleAction from the OS?

Thanks,
Krishna
