See
javap java.awt.event.MouseEvent
javap java.awt.event.InputEvent
Use getModifiers() in conjunction with the info the above commands provide.
Read the online docs for more.
Be aware that isPopupTrigger() is active on mousepress on Unix,
mouserelease on WIN* and OS/2. This is consistent with the host
environment, but a great way to trick programmers into writing
non-portable code.
