Long Press or Long Pointer Press Event

[mobo]

What is the best way to handle or detect a long Press or Long Pointer Press Event triggered by a button component. Some examples will be nice. I tried to bind an Action Listener to a button and check the event if its a long event but it does not work. 

Thanks :)

Derive the button and override the long press method. You won't get an action event for long press outside of list.

Great, but some inconvenient.

Anyway, here is complete code.

class TemplateButton extends Button {

        public TemplateButton(String title){

            super(title);

        }

        @Override

        public void pointerReleased(int x, int y) {

            super.pointerReleased(x, y); //To change body of generated methods, choose Tools | Templates.

        }

        @Override

        public void pointerPressed(int x, int y) {

            super.pointerPressed(x, y); //To change body of generated methods, choose Tools | Templates.

        }

        @Override

        public void removeActionListener(ActionListener l) {

            super.removeActionListener(l); //To change body of generated methods, choose Tools | Templates.

        }

        @Override

        public void longPointerPress(int x, int y) {

            super.longPointerPress(x, y); //To change body of generated methods, choose Tools | Templates.
