Hi,

I am trying to override the default function of Keypad.ESCAPE, and i use the following code:

protected boolean keyCharUnhandled(char c, int status, int time) {
	switch (c) {
	case Keypad.KEY_ESCAPE:
		System.out.println("Escape button pressed");
                // do something here, and then exit.
		System.exit(0);
		return true;
	default:
		return false;
	}
}

This method is in a class that extends MainSreen. I had to overide keyCharUnhandled because there is a edit field in the main screen, and if I override keyChar in the class, then the keyChar on the editfield won't be called (or at least thats what i thought what happened)

The problem is, when I use this approach (overriden keyCharUnhandled) it seems it cannot detect the BlackBerry menu button. How do I fix this?

you can override keychar safely if you call super instead of returning false

You know what, as soon as I hit the "Post" button, the same thought occured in my mind.

My bad, thanks for your reply.
