Hi,
You are deprecating shouldYieldFocus(JComponent) and yet this class
directly uses it.
Is this deprecation really the right thing to do ?
Why is this not correct? There are plenty examples in JDK:
Component#setVisible() & Component#show(), Component#transferFocus() &
Component#nextFocus(), etc...
This is necessary for backward compatibility.
My question is why deprecate it ?
So far as I can see unless some one wants to over-ride verifyTarget()
they are
fine to continue over-riding this method and ignore the new one.
Leaving aside the merits of those previous changes, and at least one of
those I think was dubious,
all you have done is at an @Deprecated annotation. There is no
@deprecated javadoc tag, and you
have left doc which says when this method is called. In fact that doc is
now very misleading.
It is not called. You call the new one.
BTW I see you mis-spell over-ridden as overriden in verifyTarget(..)
The new over-loaded shouldYieldFocus() is perhaps not much more than
a utility.
And the doc says "calls verify(input)" which seems odd since you do not
directly call it. And you are just describing what the default
implementation
does aren't you ?
This is also necessary for compatibility. There may be implementations
of the InputVerify where the shouldYieldFocus() is overloaded since it
is public (that was initial design mistake, I suppose). At the same
time the shouldYieldFocus() is the entry point that plugs InputVerify
into the JComponent.
But you are correct "calls verify(input)" is not precisely describes
what happens in this method. Maybe just make it more indirect, like
"validate the source and the target components..."?
Now I am rather confused. You make it sound like verify() not
shouldYieldFocus() is all the public
API should have contained, but you are adding a public over-load of it.
So why does this new method need to be public ? All you need is
verifyTarget(), dont you ?

Hello,
Please review fix for JDK9:
bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8154431
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssadetsky/8154431/webrev.00/
The thing is the Swing validation doesn't allow to validate state of
the target component of input focus transfer operation.
To support that the fix adds two new methods verifyTarget(JComponent
target) and shouldYieldFocus(JComponent source, JComponent target)
to the javax.swing.InputVerifier class, and its old
shouldYieldFocus(JComponent input) is marked as deprecated.
The solution guaranties full compatibility with previous JDK versions.
