Hi,

In my Swing-app I'm using a GlassPane (JComponent) to draw on top of a frame
with various JPanels, JButtons etc. I would like to redispatch MouseEvents
(or maybe something else if it's more appropriate) to the components. I
can't get it done. I've tried (amongst others) this: (where e is de original
MouseEvent.

1). Component component =
SwingUtilities.getDeepestComponentAt(this.getContentPane(), point.x,
point.y);
MouseEvent me = new MouseEvent(component, e.getID(),
System.currentTimeMillis(), e.getModifiers(),
            point.x, point.y, e.getClickCount(), e.isPopupTrigger());
   e.consume();
   component.dispatchEvent(me);
 }

and this...

2). Component component =
SwingUtilities.getDeepestComponentAt(this.getContentPane(), point.x,
point.y);
     component.dispatchEvent(e);

and, ofcourse, this...

3). Component component =
SwingUtilities.getDeepestComponentAt(this.getContentPane(), point.x,
point.y);
      if(component.equals(someComponent)) {
          doSomething();
    }

Now, this last one (3) works fine, except for the fact that I have to catch
and analyse all posible actions on the components. The second one (2)
doesn't work at all; I got casting exceptions (source in e == the
glasspane). The first one (..<your guess>) keeps on delivering te event to
the target component (like an infinite loop), so that's also not quite what
I want.

Can anyone please help me on this? Thanks in advance,
