23 * Instances of this class are sent as a result of
24 * widget traversal actions.
25 * <p>
26 * The traversal event allows fine control over keyboard traversal
27 * in a control both to implement traversal and override the default
28 * traversal behavior defined by the system. This is achieved using
29 * two fields, <code>detail</code> and <code>doit</code>.
30 * </p><p>
31 * When a control is traversed, a traverse event is sent. The detail
32 * describes the type of traversal and the doit field indicates the default
33 * behavior of the system. For example, when a right arrow key is pressed
34 * in a text control, the detail field is <code>TRAVERSE_ARROW_NEXT</code>
35 * and the doit field is <code>false</code>, indicating that the system
36 * will not traverse to the next tab item and the arrow key will be
37 * delivered to the text control. If the same key is pressed in a radio
38 * button, the doit field will be <code>true</code>, indicating that
39 * traversal is to proceed to the next tab item, possibly another radio
40 * button in the group and that the arrow key is not to be delivered
41 * to the radio button.
42 * </p><p>
43 * How can the traversal event be used to implement traversal?
44 * When a tab key is pressed in a canvas, the detail field will be
45 * <code>TRAVERSE_TAB_NEXT</code> and the doit field will be
46 * <code>false</code>. The default behavior of the system is to
47 * provide no traversal for canvas controls. This means that by
48 * default in a canvas, a key listener will see every key that the
49 * user types, including traversal keys. To understand why this
50 * is so, it is important to understand that only the widget implementor
51 * can decide which traversal is appropriate for the widget. Returning
52 * to the <code>TRAVERSE_TAB_NEXT</code> example, a text widget implemented
53 * by a canvas would typically want to use the tab key to insert a
54 * tab character into the widget. A list widget implementation, on the
55 * other hand, would like the system default traversal behavior. Using
56 * only the doit flag, both implementations are possible. The text widget
57 * implementor sets doit to <code>false</code>, ensuring that the system
58 * will not traverse and that the tab key will be delivered to key listeners.
59 * The list widget implementor sets doit to <code>true</code>, indicating
60 * that the system should perform tab traversal and that the key should not
61 * be delivered to the list widget.
62 * </p><p>
63 * How can the traversal event be used to override system traversal?
64 * When the return key is pressed in a single line text control, the
65 * detail field is <code>TRAVERSE_RETURN</code> and the doit field
66 * is <code>true</code>. This means that the return key will be processed
67 * by the default button, not the text widget. If the text widget has
68 * a default selection listener, it will not run because the return key
69 * will be processed by the default button. Imagine that the text control
70 * is being used as an in-place editor and return is used to dispose the
71 * widget. Setting doit to <code>false</code> will stop the system from
72 * activating the default button but the key will be delivered to the text
73 * control, running the key and selection listeners for the text. How
74 * can <code>TRAVERSE_RETURN</code> be implemented so that the default button
75 * will not be activated and the text widget will not see the return key?
76 * This is achieved by setting doit to <code>true</code>, and the detail
77 * to <code>TRAVERSE_NONE</code>.
78 * </p><p>
79 * Note: A widget implementor will typically implement traversal using
80 * only the doit flag to either enable or disable system traversal.

108 * When used in conjunction with the <code>doit</code> field, the
