[Krishnamurthy Dara]

Hi All,

I am using jdk1.1 version. What is the equal method in jdk1.1 for
MouseEvent.getButton(). To catch the right click on the screen.

Thanks,

don't know what is/isn't supported in 1.1, but try these

    
  public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me)
  {
    String btn = me.isMetaDown()? "Right":"Left";
    String btn1 = me.getModifiers() == 4? "Right":"Left";
    String btn2 = SwingUtilities.isRightMouseButton(me)? "Right":"Left";
    System.out.println("btn = "+btn+"\n"+"btn1 = "+btn1+"\n"+"btn2 = "+btn2);
  }

note: needs additional code if you want to specifically ID the left button
i.e. as is, the mouse wheel button will also show as 'left'
