I've got windows with language set to English - US and French Keyboard.
When i launch a java application, the keyboard is set to English keyboard.
How to make the JVM to set the keyboard with the type of keyboard set on
windows (or french keyboard) or how to force the JVM to load French keyboard
?
thank you for your answer.

This sounds like an OS-specific feature, so I don't know if it can be
done cleanly (i.e. in pure Java).

In fact, it even sounds like a computer-specific feature (what if the
user's computer doesn't have the French keyboard layout installed?)
