JMenuItem accelerator on JTable

Question

Hi,
I have a popup menu on a JTable. I have this code (executed at JTable show time):
m_oPopupMenu = new JPopupMenu();
JMenuItem oMenuItem = new JMenuItem("upd row");
oMenuItem.addActionListener(new RowMouseAdapter.UpdateRowEvent());
oMenuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_M,
ActionEvent.CTRL_MASK));
oMenuItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_M);
m_oPopupMenu.add(oMenuItem);
I also have a MouseAdapter which correcly show the pop-up menu and items. But accelerator-key doesn't works.
Any idea?
TIA

here is the code (it works correctly right mouse click, but it doesn't works
with CTRL+O when cursor is over jTable1).
import javax.swing.table.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class JFrame extends javax.swing.JFrame {
  boolean m_bMove = false;
  /** Creates new form JFrame */
  public JFrame () {
    initComponents ();
  /** This method is called from within the constructor to
   * initialize the form.
   * WARNING: Do NOT modify this code. The content of this method is
   * always regenerated by the Form Editor.
  private void initComponents() {
    jTable1 = new javax.swing.JTable();
    myInitJTable1();
    getContentPane().setLayout(null);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
    addWindowListener(new java.awt.event.WindowAdapter() {
      public void windowClosing(java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt) {
        exitForm(evt);
    jTable1.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(
      new Object [][] {
        {null, null, null, null},
        {null, null, null, null},
        {null, null, null, null},
        {null, null, null, null}
      new String [] {
        "Title 1", "Title 2", "Title 3", "Title 4"
    getContentPane().add(jTable1);
    jTable1.setBounds(30, 90, 300, 64);
    pack();
  void myInitJTable1() {
      oPopupMenu = new JPopupMenu();
      JMenuItem oMenuItem = new JMenuItem("item");      
      oMenuItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent actionEvent) {
          System.out.println("--------XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-------");
      oMenuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_O,
        InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
      oMenuItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_O);
      oPopupMenu.add(oMenuItem);
      jTable1.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
          if(e.getButton () != e.BUTTON3) // right mouse button
            return;
          oPopupMenu.show(e.getComponent(), e.getX(), e.getY());
  /** Exit the Application */
  private void exitForm (java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt) {
    System.exit (0);
   * @param args the command line arguments
  public static void main (String args[]) {
    new JFrame ().show ();
  // Variables declaration - do not modify
  private javax.swing.JTable jTable1;
  // End of variables declaration
  private JPopupMenu oPopupMenu;
