[Advanced-java] Mouse listener question

[dovle@xxxxxxxxxx (dovle)]

Hi all,

This does not affect my work but I found a 'strange' way of acting in java 
awt. This seems pretty strange to me, wondering if someone can tell me if 
this is the right behaviour or I have mixed something up into my class.

When the mouse is pressed the mousePressed method is called. But before of 
this the mouseEntered method is called. Is this correct ? Why the 
mouseEntered method is called even if the mouse was for long time over the 
panel ? 

Otherwise the mouseEntered and mouseExited are called corectly (when entering 
or exiting of the panel) . 

The code is simple, a System.out.println("<action name>" ) for each 
mouseAction. And a simple panel.

Thanks
