I put this in my actionPerformed method. Don't know if it's the best
way, but it works for all of my components that have the key stroke
mapped.
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
JComponent focusComponent =
(JComponent)SwingUtilities.findFocusOwner(MyClass.this);
if (focusComponent == null)
return;
Object key = focusComponent.getInputMap().get(
KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_V, ActionEvent.CTRL_MASK));
if (key != null)
focusComponent.getActionMap().get(key).actionPerformed(evt);
}
