Hello Shashi, Alexey and Sergey,
Shashi, I know that "WM_GESTURE" is mutually exclusive with "WM_TOUCH"
which is used by my fix for JDK-8166772, according to the next quotation
from the MSDN page
(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd371581(v=vs.85).aspx).
"Note By default, you receive WM_GESTURE messages instead of WM_TOUCH
messages. If you call RegisterTouchWindow, you will stop receiving
WM_GESTURE messages."
Sergey, Alexey and Shashi,
I debugged this issue (JDK-8178361), identified the root cause of this
bug and created my own 2 line length alternative version of the fix for
this bug. This bug is a bug in JDK and is not caused by lack of support
of the touch input by JDK on Windows OS. My fix does not involve any
touch input API. Please review my fix and find the explanation of the
root cause of the bug.
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~alitvinov/8178361/jdk10/webrev.00
THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE BUG:
The event "java.awt.event.MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED" is not sent from the
native method "AwtComponent::WmMouseUp" to the event queue for
"WM_LBUTTONUP" message related to the second touch (tap) of the double
touch user action. Tracing shows that in reality:
1. During a double click and a double touch "AwtComponent" window
always receives 2 pairs of "WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP" messages, thus
JDK already has support of the double touch action via
"WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP" messages.
2.1. For each "WM_LBUTTONDOWN" in "AwtComponent::WmMouseDown" JDK sends
1 "java.awt.event.MouseEvent" (MOUSE_PRESSED).
2.2. For each "WM_LBUTTONUP" in "AwtComponent::WmMouseUp" JDK sends 2
"java.awt.event.MouseEvent" (MOUSE_RELEASED, MOUSE_CLICKED).
However, when the double touch is done "MOUSE_CLICKED" event is not sent
for "WM_LBUTTONUP" from the 2nd pair of "WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP"
messages, because "m_mouseButtonClickAllowed" equals "0" and the next
condition in "AwtComponent::WmMouseUp" is not satisfied:
if ((m_mouseButtonClickAllowed & GetButtonMK(button)) != 0) {
//CLICK allowed
SendMouseEvent(java_awt_event_MouseEvent_MOUSE_CLICKED,
::JVM_CurrentTimeMillis(NULL, 0), x, y,
GetJavaModifiers(),
clickCount, JNI_FALSE, GetButton(button));
}
It occurs, because between the 2nd pair of the messages
"WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP" the messages "WM_MOUSEMOVE" arrive, so
"x", "y" coordinates of "WM_LBUTTONDOWN", "WM_LBUTTONUP" are different.
JDK handles "WM_MOUSEMOVE", and in "AwtComponent::WmMouseMove" this
event is treated as "dragging" and the next expression is executed.
"m_mouseButtonClickAllowed = 0;"
Therefore in "AwtComponent::WmMouseUp" it is decided not to send
"java.awt.event.MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED" for the end of dragging.
THE FIX:
The fix allows to send "java.awt.event.MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED" event
from "AwtComponent::WmMouseUp" for the case, when "clickCount" exceeds
"1". If JDK already associates 2 "WM_LBUTTONDOWN" messages in
"AwtComponent::WmMouseDown" as a double or triple click, then it is
possible to consider that no dragging happened between these messages.
Thank you,
Anton

Hi Shashi,
I am also reviewing your fix since last week. I built "jdk10/client"
with your fix and was able to see, how the 1st and the 2nd versions of
your fix work. I have the following remarks and questions to you:
1. The fix causes a rather significant regression, which is a loss of
the drag functionality using the touch screen. To reproduce it you can
use "SwingSet2" demo application, where try to move any of the
internal frames on the first tab of the demo application using the
touch screen. Also you can try to select text in JTextField in that
demo application using the touch screen. I think that this regression
is serious and should be addressed in this fix.
*/[Shashi] I found the problem that was causing this issue. It is to
do with the drag capture/release implemented in the WmMouseDown() and
WmMouseUp() functions. This does not handles the touch drag as such
and we need to implement a new touch gesture to enable the same
functionality./*
2. Why is it necessary for your fix to handle "WM_POINTERENTER",
"WM_POINTERLEAVE" messages?
*/[Shashi] Currently we are mapping the touch input to mouse input and
the mouse input follows a protocol of sending a mouse enter to and
exit from a window event before processing further events. This same
is implemented thro’ Pointer enter and pointer leave messages./*
3. According to MSDN the used by you Win32 API function
"GetPointerInfo" and "WM_POINTER*" messages are available on Windows 8
or later OS versions, what means that they are not available on older
OS versions, for example on Windows 7, and what means that your fix
will not resolve the bug for Windows 7.
Windows 7 is supported by JDK 9
(http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk9certconfig-3761018.html),
and obviously JDK 10 also supports Windows 7, therefore the bug should
be fixed also for Windows 7, if it is reproducible on that OS.
*/[Shashi] Thanks for pointing this out. Windows 7 offers a different
touch input method via the WM_GESTURE and here is the link for it:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd940543(v=vs.85).aspx
<https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd940543%28v=vs.85%29.aspx>.
I am exploring a way to implement the same in the coming update./*
*/As one can see, there are a lot of major updates that needs to be
done for this feature to be complete. It will take some more days to
do this, hence please wait for some time till I produce a new update./*
Thank you,
Anton

Hi Alexey, Thank you for pointing that out. I misread the info
that EnableMouseInPointer() is a must call and would enable the
WM_POINTER messages being sent to the component. But actually it
is not required to be enabled and as you rightly pointed out that
it would convert the WM_MOUSE to the WM_POINTER messages.
Below is the Webrev that does this change. Now since mouse in
pointer is disabled, the mouse behavior should /_not_/ have any
effect at all by this software updates.

Hi Shashi,
You use EnableMouseInPointer which converts classical WM_MOUSE
events to WM_POINTER events. This could have substantial effect on
AWT components behaviour. I am worried about High DPI support,
drag-and-drop functionality etc.
*/[Shashi] This is not required and hence removed./*
Is there a simpler way to handle double-tap?
Windows converts taps to clicks, i.e. the app receives
WM_LBUTTONDOWN and WM_LBUTTONUP.
Have you tried to find out why double-tap is not converted to
double-click?
*/[Shashi] Since the mouse in pointer is disabled and a windows
icon behavior is different from a windows button behavior(Because
the a touch on the icon does not translate to a left button down
event whereas it does for a windows button(file name!!)), it is
required to bring in the WM_POINTER message type into the
component message handling routine./*
Do right and middle mouse buttons continue to work as expected?
Mouse wheel? Any additional mouse buttons?
*/[Shashi] It should not have any effect after mouse in pointer is
disabled./*
The documentation for EnableMouseInPointer [1] says: “This
function can be called only once in the context of a process
lifetime.” You call it for every component created. It would have
been enough to call it once during Toolkit initialization.

Alexey

Hi Sergey, When I checked it was not working on the Java applications.
None of the controls could take touch click events but it used to highlight
because when we touch on the touch screen interface the system moves the cursor
over to the touch point thereby enabling mouse focus events being sent.
Thanks and regards,
Shashi

Hi, Shashi.
Why the bug is JFileChooser specific?
Does it means that it works for other elements(buttons/lists/menu/etc)?

Hi All, Please review this software changes for the /_enhancement_/
JDK-8178361.
Issue: Request was filed to enable the touch event processing for
Java
client applications.
Fix: Windows platform offers 'pointer' implementation thro' which
one
can tap for the touch inputs as well. A typical 'pointer' function
may
contain touch, pen, touch pad or mouse inputs. This allows for a
uniform input processing though the event source may defer. This fix
enables the 'touch' events(via TOUCH pointer) to be passed to the
components using the other type of pointer 'mouse'. Essentially
there
is a conversion put in place to convert a touch event input into a
left click mouse event. I think this is the right thing to do
considering desktop scenarios to which the typical Java applications
that gets exposed to. This is also the same behavior on my touch
enabled windows 10 laptop as well. Please let me know if a
different behavior is expected. Below is the output:
Now touch event works as a typical mouse left click as in general.
But
there is an issue because the icon size of the Java UI is typically
small, touching that icon exactly is sometimes difficult. This is
handled by an Windows application by having larger icon size or icon
view as a standard. Hence I believe this is outside the scope this
software update. Any changes to it would be done later as a new bug
or
an enhancement.
