Stop OSX diacritics disabling KeyBindings in Java for all users?

问题

(Note: I am aware of this question in which the user would have to enter a Terminal command to fix this issue, but I would prefer a solution in which the solution can be put into the application.)

To explain, I am using KeyBindings in a Java application; however, if one holds a key like a, e, i, o, u, n, s, etc., the diacritic menu OSX uses somehow completely disables key input.

It does not, however, affect mouse input if that is relevant.

Here is some sample code in which the problem can be demonstrated. If you press and hold any of the aforementioned keys on OSX for approximately one second or more, the KeyBindings stop working entirely. (I recommend holding the key down for more just to be sure, though.

回答1:

To answer the question I was having, the issue was the Java version.

I had JDK 1.8.0_151, but apparently this issue was fixed in some iteration up to JDK 1.8.0_172.

So, to make sure this issue does not happen to the users of my application, I will require JDK 1.9 or above using org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils and use the isJavaVersionAtLeast(JavaVersion requiredVersion) method from this answer.

Update:

I actually plan to use the method I got from my question here since it allows me not to have to require JRE 1.9 but instead allows me to make the minimum 1.8.0_172.
