Hi Shashi,

I am also reviewing your fix since last week. I built "jdk10/client" with your fix and was able to see, how the 1st and the 2nd versions of your fix work. I have the following remarks and questions to you:

1. The fix causes a rather significant regression, which is a loss of the drag functionality using the touch screen. To reproduce it you can use "SwingSet2" demo application, where try to move any of the internal frames on the first tab of the demo application using the touch screen. Also you can try to select text in JTextField in that demo application using the touch screen. I think that this regression is serious and should be addressed in this fix.

2. Why is it necessary for your fix to handle "WM_POINTERENTER", "WM_POINTERLEAVE" messages?

3. According to MSDN the used by you Win32 API function "GetPointerInfo" and "WM_POINTER*" messages are available on Windows 8 or later OS versions, what means that they are not available on older OS versions, for example on Windows 7, and what means that your fix will not resolve the bug for Windows 7.

Windows 7 is supported by JDK 9 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk9certconfig-3761018.html), and obviously JDK 10 also supports Windows 7, therefore the bug should be fixed also for Windows 7, if it is reproducible on that OS.

Thank you,
Anton

Hi Alexey, Thank you for pointing that out. I misread the info that EnableMouseInPointer() is a must call and would enable the WM_POINTER messages being sent to the component. But actually it is not required to be enabled and as you rightly pointed out that it would convert the WM_MOUSE to the WM_POINTER messages.

Below is the Webrev that does this change. Now since mouse in pointer is disabled, the mouse behavior should /_not_/ have any effect at all by this software updates.

Hi Shashi,

You use EnableMouseInPointer which converts classical WM_MOUSE events to WM_POINTER events. This could have substantial effect on AWT components behaviour. I am worried about High DPI support, drag-and-drop functionality etc.

*/[Shashi] This is not required and hence removed./*

Is there a simpler way to handle double-tap?
Windows converts taps to clicks, i.e. the app receives WM_LBUTTONDOWN and WM_LBUTTONUP. Have you tried to find out why double-tap is not converted to double-click?

*/[Shashi] Since the mouse in pointer is disabled and a windows icon behavior is different from a windows button behavior(Because the a touch on the icon does not translate to a left button down event whereas it does for a windows button(file name!!)), it is required to bring in the WM_POINTER message type into the component message handling routine./*

Do right and middle mouse buttons continue to work as expected? Mouse wheel? Any additional mouse buttons?

*/[Shashi] It should not have any effect after mouse in pointer is disabled./*

The documentation for EnableMouseInPointer [1] says: “This function can be called only once in the context of a process lifetime.” You call it for every component created. It would have been enough to call it once during Toolkit initialization.

Alexey

    Hi Sergey, When I checked it was not working on the Java applications. None 
of the controls could take touch click events but it used to highlight because 
when we touch on the touch screen interface the system moves the cursor over to 
the touch point thereby enabling mouse focus events being sent.

    Thanks and regards,

    Hi, Shashi.

    Why the bug is JFileChooser specific?

    Does it means that it works for other elements(buttons/lists/menu/etc)?

        Hi All, Please review this software changes for the /_enhancement_/

        JDK-8178361.

        Issue: Request was filed to enable the touch event processing for Java

        client applications.

        Fix: Windows platform offers 'pointer' implementation thro' which one

        can tap for the touch inputs as well. A typical 'pointer' function may

        contain touch, pen, touch pad or mouse inputs. This allows for a

        uniform input processing though the event source may defer. This fix

        enables the 'touch' events(via TOUCH pointer) to be passed to the

        components using the other type of pointer 'mouse'. Essentially there

        is a conversion put in place to convert a touch event input into a

        left click mouse event. I think this is the right thing to do

        considering desktop scenarios to which the typical Java applications

        that gets exposed to. This is also the same behavior on my touch

        enabled windows 10 laptop as well. Please let me know if a different 
behavior is expected. Below is the output:

        Now touch event works as a typical mouse left click as in general. But

        there is an issue because the icon size of the Java UI is typically

        small, touching that icon exactly is sometimes difficult. This is

        handled by an Windows application by having larger icon size or icon

        view as a standard. Hence I believe this is outside the scope this

        software update. Any changes to it would be done later as a new bug or

        an enhancement.
