How do you simulate a click on a JTextField? Equivalent of JButton doClick()?

Question

I am working on a Java project and need to have a keypress simulate a click on a JTextField. What I\'m looking for is the equivalent of the JButton doClick() method.

Answer 1

public void simulateKey(KeyEvent e, Component c) {
   Field f = KeyEvent.class.getField("focusManagerIsDispatching");
   f.setAccessible(true);
   f.set(e, Boolean.TRUE);
   c.dispatchEvent(e);
}

Send "Enter" to your JTextField. This was stolen from here.
