    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStroke(char keyChar)` Returns a shared instance of an `AWTKeyStroke` that represents a `KEY_TYPED` event for the specified character.
    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStroke(Character keyChar, int modifiers)` Returns a shared instance of an `AWTKeyStroke` that represents a `KEY_TYPED` event for the specified Character object and a set of modifiers.
    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStroke(int keyCode, int modifiers)` Returns a shared instance of an `AWTKeyStroke`, given a numeric key code and a set of modifiers.
    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStroke(int keyCode, int modifiers, boolean onKeyRelease)` Returns a shared instance of an `AWTKeyStroke`, given a numeric key code and a set of modifiers, specifying whether the key is activated when it is pressed or released.
    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStroke(String s)` Parses a string and returns an `AWTKeyStroke`.
    `static AWTKeyStroke` | AWTKeyStroke.`getAWTKeyStrokeForEvent(KeyEvent anEvent)` Returns an `AWTKeyStroke` which represents the stroke which generated a given `KeyEvent`.
