SWT version of: getOppositeComponent on focus change

Question

In Swing you can get "the other Component involved in this focus change" from this: getOppositeComponent. There does not seem to be a similar call in SWT, does anyone have a workaround or fix for this?

TIA

Answer 1

There is no equivalent for that in SWT, but you can try to use the following lists on both components:

public class OppositeAwareFocusListener implements FocusListener {
  Widget opposite;
  public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
    ..
  }
  public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
    this.opposite = e.widget;
  }
}
