A fake mouse click

[Nik Belyaev]

Hi, All!

I've come across a problem which I've never met before. My program has to
emulate a mouse movement and a mouse click. I.e. I need something like
"mouseMoveTo(int x, y)" and "mouseClick()" that moves the cursor at (x,y)
of the screen and emulates a left click, respectively.

I tried searching for this kind of method in the RTFM but I didn't get any
results...

I'd really appreciate if someone could show me the right way of implementing
this.

PS If it makes it different, the system is Linux with KDE 3.4

Have you tried the java.awt.Robot class ? It seems to have the method you
need.

Take a look at java.awt.Robot, available since Java 1.3.
Methods available include mouseMove, mousePress, and mouseRelease.

OK, Thanks everybody! This is exactly the kind of class I've been looking
for but somehow couldn't find ;). Thanks again...
