shortcut key to javax.swing.ProgressMonitor

How can I add a shortcut key to javax.swing.ProgressMonitor
It directly extends java.lang.Object. As it donot extend java.awt.Component I cannot add a java.awt.event.KeyListener.
Pls advice if by any way I can add a shortcut key.

It's been a while since I fooled with the ProgressMonitor (or Swing for that matter), but doesn't it have a cancel button? I think it should likewise support the the keyboard default for cancel, so pressing the Esc key should have the effect of clicking the button, unless Swing flaunts that particular standard. Outside of that, if you need special handling of a particular key, you might just create your own little progress display frame, then you could add whatever special handling you need.
