Are there known issues with Keyman and SWT based applications like Eclipse? One of our engineers did some testing with the current Eclipse 3.4 and these are the results:

Some CTRL characters do not work at all, such as CTRL+c and CTR+s.

Ctrl+Shift characters only work if Shift is held down first, then Ctrl, then the key is typed.
Alt+Shift characters only work if Shift is held down first, then Alt, then the key is typed.
Ctrl+Alt+Shift characters only work in the order Ctrl then Alt then Shift then key, or Alt then Ctrl then Shift then key.

As of now, there have been no known issues with such applications. We will do some testing with Eclipse and if it comes up as an issue, we will work to correct it for the next release.

My concern is that this is an issue similar to Firefox/XUL where the underlying win32 code prevents the proper key events - but I will keep my fingers crossed :-) Thanks

FYI: We tested custom keyboards created with Microsoft keyboard creator and they all work.
