Hi Klara.

I can't think of any reason why your own events would not work with the
java::bind command. Could you check to make sure that your class
is exposing events using the java::info command? Here is an example
of events exposed by a java.awt.Button from the java::bind man page:

http://tcl.activestate.com/man/java1.2.6/TclJava/JavaBindCmd.html

% java::info events $b
java.beans.PropertyChangeListener java.awt.event.ComponentListener
java.awt.event.MouseMotionListener java.awt.event.MouseListener
java.awt.event.HierarchyListener java.awt.event.KeyListener
java.awt.event.ActionListener java.awt.event.FocusListener
java.awt.event.HierarchyBoundsListener java.awt.event.InputMethodListener

If you can see the listener but you can't bind events to it, then could you
trim your example down to one .java file and a few Tcl commands and
post it to the list?
