Hi Jing,
I can't agree with you about the problem. According to
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/menu.html
"Menus are unique in that, by convention, they aren't placed with the
other components in the UI". Instead, a menu usually appears either in a
menu bar or as a popup menu", so your test-case is invalid.

Hello,
I've found an accessibility issue. Here is the simple testcase:
public static void main() {
JFrame jf=new JFrame("Hello");
JMenuBar menubar = new JMenuBar();
menubar.add(new JMenu("sample menu").add(new
JMenuItem("hello")));
jf.setSize(300,300);
String[] comboEditableArray = { "Editable JCombobox 1",
"Editable JCombobox 2", "Editable JCombobox 3", "Editable JCombobox
4", "Editable JCombobox 5" };
JComboBox jc=new JComboBox(comboEditableArray);
jc.setEditable(true);
JButton jb1=new JButton("ok");
JButton jb2=new JButton("ok");
JTree jTree;
jTree = new JTree();
jTree.setName("JTree");
jTree.setFocusable(true);
jTree.setSelectionInterval(0, 0);
JPanel jp=new JPanel();
jp.add(jb1);
jp.add(jc);
jp.add(jTree);
jp.add(menubar);
jp.add(jb2);
jf.getContentPane().add(jp);
jf.show();
KeyboardFocusManager kFocusMan =
KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager();
kFocusMan.setDefaultFocusTraversalPolicy(new
ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy());
jf.setFocusTraversalPolicy(KeyboardFocusManager
.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager()
.getDefaultFocusTraversalPolicy());
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Schedule a job for the event-dispatching thread:
//creating and showing this application's GUI
javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(
new Runnable() {
public void run() { JEditableComboFocusTest.main(); }
}
);
}
Running this testcase on JDK6/7 will find if we set focus on
"JTree" item and then press TAB key, the focus lost (which we except
it should focus on the last "OK" button).
It seems the problem is that, the focus stays in the menubar and
does not move to the other component. The reason is the focus
traversal keys are disabled in the JMenuBar. But since the JMenuBar is
focusable, the focus is moving to JMenuBar and since the focus
traversal keys are disabled, the focus is staying back there and not
coming to other components. When the focus traversal keys are disabled.
A simple fix would be that disable focus for JMenuBar. The patch
may be:
diff --git a/src/share/classes/javax/swing/JMenuBar.java

Any comments? Thanks.
