Key codes for the letters Å, Ä & Ö

[Alerhau]

The title says it all.
I've been searching around the internet for those.
On all webpages that I've found so far, I get different codes for them :o

Thanks,
Ah

You might be able to reverse engineer the codes by writing a keylistener that prints out the event objects when those keys are pressed.

The problem is that I can't find the keys in Java.
For example: VK_Å does not work.

[Norm]

Did you do as I suggested? What was printed out when you pressed the keys?
Then take those numbers and go to the VK_ symbol definitions and see if there are any symbols with those values.

How do you intend to use the key codes?

How do you mean? :-/

I said: Write a keylistener that prints out the event objects when those keys are pressed.

I assume you know how to add a keylistener to a component and how to print out the event object that is passed to one of the listener methods. The data printed includes lots of info about the event. I think the keyCode is there.

I think the OP confuses the unicode code point generated when a key is typed and the raw keycode for a key being pressed (and released), i.e. VK_A generates the character 'a' while the *two* events VK_SHIFT and VK_A generate the character 'A'.

Which is why I asked what I did. The response

doesn't help anyone, and least of all the OP.

Yep, true; I do admit that those VK_* thingies can be confusing at first; it was only when I started fiddling with that 'virtual keyboard' (remember?) that made me understand all about it ;-)
