jpanel + keylistener

[freggy]

is there someone who can tell me how to use keylisteners in java without using textfields or textarea's? i have a jpanel with mouselisteners. if a key is pressed e.g. shift, another block of code needs to be execute then without pressing the key.

thanks
frederic

you can add a key listener to anything you've attached the mouselistener to. As far as I am aware, as long as the component with the listener has foucs when the event is triggered, it should be caught.
