Summary: in a CellList I want to sink the ONCLICK and ONCONTEXTMENU events to be handled by my Cell's onBrowserEvent method, but I don't want any mouse over/out/move events, but cannot seem to unsink them.
In 2.1 M1 we have CellList. If you look at the constructor of CellList you'll see on line 139 sinkEvents(Event.ONCLICK | Event.ONCHANGE | Event.MOUSEEVENTS); So the CellList is presuming that these are the events that we're interested in. Now I have created my own concrete implementation of an AbstractCell. Other implementations are TextCell, ButtonCell, CheckboxCell, etc. So I have followed those as examples, but have created my own Cell implementation. One of the methods that can be implemented is: public abstract Object onBrowserEvent(Element parent, C value, Object viewData, NativeEvent event, ValueUpdater<C> valueUpdater); ... and in that method I am interested in a Click event and a Context menu event. I notice that my CPU usage peaks at 50ish% when I move my mouse around. Sure enough GWT is picking up all the mouse over, mouse out, mouse move events as well. AND I'm not getting my Context menu event (because I haven't explicitly sunk it yet). So in my UI class that keeps an instance of this CellList, in the constructor I have: myCellList.sinkEvents(Event.ONCONTEXTMENU); myCellList.unsinkEvents(Event.MOUSEEVENTS); ... so now I am getting my Context menu event, but I am still getting a flood of mouse events as I wiggle my mouse over the Cells in the CellList. I have tried explicitly unsinking Event.ONMOUSEOVER et al. but that has no effect either. Either this is a bug, or more likely I am unsinking the event on the wrong element or unsinking in the wrong order, or I am missing something altogether.
