How can I capture all keyboard and mouse event on the system ?

How can I catch events(for eg: mouse clicks) on the Desktop? I do not want to use any AWT or Swing components in my application.

Also, i want to get events on other java/non-java application windows are visible on desktop, as long as my application is running.

In short, the requirement is to capture all keyboard and mouse event on the system as long as my application is running.
