Firing native events in GWT can be a real pain. If you need to fire a click event when the user press ENTER (or any other key that you want to work like CLICK) on any custom-made element, theoretically you should use:<\/p>\n
*DomEvent.fireNativeEvent(com.google.gwt.dom.client.NativeEvent, com.google.gwt.event.shared.HasHandlers) * Minimal code (without required parameters) linked with this approach: This approach is very useful for custom made buttons that for some reason can not extend basic Button class. In any other case try not to simulate “user actions” in your handlers. Launch designated business methods instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Firing native events in GWT can be a real pain.
