You can override EditText to return your own InputConnection. But... if you want KeyEvents, you won't get KeyEvents. Period. There are no KeyEvent objects involved in this ANYWHERE. At all. The user is touching on the screen (that is a touch event). The IME turns that into an edit operation on the TextView (that is a call to InputConnection). No KeyEvent.
What you are claiming to want to do simply doesn't make sense. Let's back up here and see what you are actually trying to accomplish? Not timing between two key events. What is the goal you are trying to achieve? On Sat, Sep 4, 2010 at 6:55 AM, Tez <[email protected]> wrote: > How do I intercept the InputConnection Calls?
