[SOLVED] String to KeyEvent

843807

My application is listening to KeyEvent.VK_F11.

Now I want to put F11 in a properties file, but is it possible to get the KeyEvent from a String for example: "F11"?

Is there a method for this or should iterate through the possible KeyEvents?

Edit: I solved it by using KeyStroke instead of KeyEvent

if(myString.equals("F11")){
  //do what ever
}
