The component would need some strategy to decide what should get focus when the component's setFocus gets called. It could be the first child, or some other logic, maybe a property set some where. DataGrid, for example, puts focus on one of its renderers if it is editable. IIRC, Alert puts focus on the default button. > >The dialog class has only a reference to the entire composite component, >and the component in the dialog has no knowledge of whether it appears >in a popup dialog or anywhere else. IMHO, it shouldn't need to know that. It is up to the consumer of the composite component to decide whether to call that component's setFocus() or not.
