/**
 * An event which indicates that a keystroke occurred in a component.
 * <p>
 * This low-level event is generated by a component object (such as a text
 * field) when a key is pressed, released, or typed.
 * The event is passed to every <code>KeyListener</code>
 * or <code>KeyAdapter</code> object which registered to receive such
 * events using the component's <code>addKeyListener</code> method.
 * (<code>KeyAdapter</code> objects implement the
 * <code>KeyListener</code> interface.)  Each such listener object
 * gets this <code>KeyEvent</code> when the event occurs.
 * <p>
 * <em>"Key typed" events</em> are higher-level and generally do not depend on
 * the platform or keyboard layout.  They are generated when a Unicode character
 * is entered, and are the preferred way to find out about character input.
 * In the simplest case, a key typed event is produced by a single key press
 * (e.g., 'a').  Often, however, characters are produced by series of key
 * presses (e.g., 'shift' + 'a'), and the mapping from key pressed events to
 * key typed events may be many-to-one or many-to-many.  Key releases are not
 * usually necessary to generate a key typed event, but there are some cases
 * where the key typed event is not generated until a key is released (e.g.,
 * entering ASCII sequences via the Alt-Numpad method in Windows).
 * No key typed events are generated for keys that don't generate Unicode
 * characters (e.g., action keys, modifier keys, etc.).
 * <p>
 * The getKeyChar method always returns a valid Unicode character or
 * CHAR_UNDEFINED.  Character input is reported by KEY_TYPED events:
 * KEY_PRESSED and KEY_RELEASED events are not necessarily associated
 * with character input.  Therefore, the result of the getKeyChar method
 * is guaranteed to be meaningful only for KEY_TYPED events.
 * <p>
 * For key pressed and key released events, the getKeyCode method returns
 * the event's keyCode.  For key typed events, the getKeyCode method
 * always returns {@code VK_UNDEFINED}. The {@code getExtendedKeyCode} method
 * may also be used with many international keyboard layouts.
 *
 * <p>
 * <em>"Key pressed" and "key released" events</em> are lower-level and depend
 * on the platform and keyboard layout. They are generated whenever a key is
 * pressed or released, and are the only way to find out about keys that don't
 * generate character input (e.g., action keys, modifier keys, etc.). The key
 * being pressed or released is indicated by the {@code getKeyCode} and {@code getExtendedKeyCode}
 * methods, which return a virtual key code.
 *
 * <p>
 * <em>Virtual key codes</em> are used to report which keyboard key has
 * been pressed, rather than a character generated by the combination
 * of one or more keystrokes (such as "A", which comes from shift and "a").
 *
 * <p>
 * For example, pressing the Shift key will cause a KEY_PRESSED event
 * with a VK_SHIFT keyCode, while pressing the 'a' key will result in
 * a VK_A keyCode.  After the 'a' key is released, a KEY_RELEASED event
 * will be fired with VK_A. Separately, a KEY_TYPED event with a keyChar
 * value of 'A' is generated.
 *
 * <p>
 * Pressing and releasing a key on the keyboard results in the generating
 * the following key events (in order):
 * <PRE>
 *    {@code KEY_PRESSED}
 *    {@code KEY_TYPED} (is only generated if a valid Unicode character could be generated.)
 *    {@code KEY_RELEASED}
 * </PRE>
 *
 * But in some cases (e.g. auto-repeat or input method is activated) the order
 * could be different (and platform dependent).
 *
 * <p>
 * Notes:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Key combinations which do not result in Unicode characters, such as action
 * keys like F1 and the HELP key, do not generate KEY_TYPED events.
 * <li>Not all keyboards or systems are capable of generating all
 * virtual key codes.  No attempt is made in Java to generate these keys
 * artificially.
 * <li>Virtual key codes do not identify a physical key: they depend on the
 * platform and keyboard layout. For example, the key that generates VK_Q
 * when using a U.S. keyboard layout will generate VK_A when using a French
 * keyboard layout.
 * <li>The key that generates {@code VK_Q} when using a U.S. keyboard layout also
 * generates a unique code for Russian or Hebrew layout. There is no a
 * {@code VK_} constant for these and many other codes in various layouts. These codes
 * may be obtained by using {@code getExtendedKeyCode} and are used whenever
 * a {@code VK_} constant is used.
 * <li>Not all characters have a keycode associated with them.  For example,
 * there is no keycode for the question mark because there is no keyboard
 * for which it appears on the primary layer.
 * <li>In order to support the platform-independent handling of action keys,
 * the Java platform uses a few additional virtual key constants for functions
 * that would otherwise have to be recognized by interpreting virtual key codes
 * and modifiers. For example, for Japanese Windows keyboards, VK_ALL_CANDIDATES
 * is returned instead of VK_CONVERT with the ALT modifier.
 * <li>As specified in <a href="../doc-files/FocusSpec.html">Focus Specification</a>
 * key events are dispatched to the focus owner by default.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * WARNING: Aside from those keys that are defined by the Java language
 * (VK_ENTER, VK_BACK_SPACE, and VK_TAB), do not rely on the values of the VK_
 * constants.  The platform steward reserves the right to change these values as needed
 * to accommodate a wider range of keyboards in the future.
 * <p>
 * An unspecified behavior will be caused if the {@code id} parameter
 * of any particular {@code KeyEvent} instance is not
 * in the range from {@code KEY_FIRST} to {@code KEY_LAST}.
