Hi all, I have seen this issue come up a lot, but there isn't much information on how to receive unicode input in a NSView.
(I know we are supposed to just type in a NSTextField but that is impossible in our situation where the app must run stand-alone and as a browser plugin). we used to call interpretKeyEvents in the keyDown handler and the InsertText handler would get the unicode string, I guess this stopped working with a system update a while back. Now i think there are 2 ways to do this: 1) subclass nsview and make it conform to the NSTextInputClient protocol i have been picking away at this, i added the NSTextInputClient handlers but they aren't being called. a working example or a pointer would help if anyone has done this. 2) use a fake NSTextField and try to use that for gathering the unicode as it arrives. I have seen someone recommend NSWindow fieldEditor:forObject: to do this. This sounds pretty bad and i have a lot of uncertainty as to how to make this work right. So do you guys have a recommendation here? thanks in advance _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
