[SOLVED] String to KeyEvent

843807Jun 1 2010 — edited Jun 1 2010
My application is listening to KeyEvent.VK_F11.

Now I want to put F11 in a properties file, but is it possible to get the KeyEvent from a String for example: "F11"?

Is there a method for this or should iterate through the possible KeyEvents?

Edit: I solved it by using KeyStroke instead of KeyEvent
