JTabbedPane - Catching tab selection change

Question

I want to catch each tab selection change in my JTabbedPane.
When I used ChangeListener, my program was unable to correctly
indicate selected tab in some cases, i.e.:
JTabbedPane contains two tabs: 0,1.
Tab 0 was selected.
Tab 0 was deleted.
In this case JTabbedPane selects tab 1, but selected index remains
unchanged and stateChanged is not called. How can I catch this?

Answer 1

This trick is working, but you see, the problem is more
complicated. The problem is that stateChanged() doesn't work
when index remains unchanged. This is also true for insertTab().
Both insertTab() and removeTabAt() (and maybe smth. else) causes this problem.
Maybe, possible solution will be to override some method of
JTabbedPane, responsible for activating a tab like this...?
tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane {
    activateTab(...) {
        super.activateTab(...);
        firePropertyChange(...);
}But what is the methods prototype and can it be overriden
at all??
In the deep sources of swing :) I've found such tricks:
In JTabbedPane.insertTab():accessibleContext.firePropertyChange(
    AccessibleContext.ACCESSIBLE_VISIBLE_DATA_PROPERTY,
    null, component);In JTabbedPane.removeTabAt():accessibleContext.firePropertyChange(
    AccessibleContext.ACCESSIBLE_VISIBLE_DATA_PROPERTY,
    component, null);I'm almost convinced that this is the point. But!
I've never worked with Accesibility :(
And I couldn't find out what to do having only swing sources.
Need help.
