Hello colleagues, my question is this: I need that after pressing a menu option an enter is done by default, that is, not that I press the key, but that it is automatically done. Is there any way to do it in java? Thanks.

You can use the class Robot
of Java
First, you import the necessary libraries:
import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
Then:
In this example
try
catch
is to demonstrate the way to capture the exceptions of this class so its use is not mandatory
try {
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER); // Simula presionar la tecla
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER); // Simula soltar la tecla
} catch (AWTException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("Error");
}
Actaulización: I do not know how your menu is programmed, but you can create a method that is called from the same.
Example:
public class TuClase
{
private java.awt.Robot robot = null;
public void PresionarEnter()
{
robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
//O este, aun mas simple
new java.awt.Robot().keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
}
}
So, you just have to call the PresionarEnter()
method when you click on the item in your menu
