*----------------ORIGINAL REQUEST FOR POST--------------------*
I'm writing a Qt Plugin for QML that gets handset device key data and
presents it to any QML component via a QInputMethodEvent.
I can't get the QML event portion to work. More specifically, I am
unable to get sendEvent() to work from my class HandsetInputContext
which inherits QInputContext.
I originally expected to be able to package up a QInputMethodEvent with
a key character like 'a' or 'b' or even 'Return-Key' integer and have
any component expecting input to be able to handle the event providing
that the component had focus. If that didn't work, I thought I would try
to send a regular event like QKeyEvent.
Here's a 'honed-down' example of what I've tried:
I first tried this code from within my inherited QInputContext class:
/QInputMethodEvent ime;
ime.setCommitString("SOME_STRING");
sendEvent(ime);/
but it didn't work, so then I tried this code: ("m_target" is a QML
QObject*, in this particular case it's a TextInput component)
/QString s = QString::number(coreKeyCode);
QKeyEvent keyPress(QEvent::KeyPress, coreKeyCode, Qt::NoModifier, s);
qApp->sendEvent(m_target, &keyPress); // this returned boolean fail/
this also didn't work, so I tried this code as a sanity-check. It worked
but it's just being sent to a local QLineEdit
/QString s = QString::number(coreKeyCode);
QLineEdit lineEdit;
qApp->sendEvent(&lineEdit, &keyPress);/ // this worked, returned
boolean true
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My QML code looks like this. "m_target" is a QObject* gets set from the
HandsetInputContext's "target:"
import QtQuick 1.0
import MyPlugin 1.0
Rectangle {
width: 400
height: 100
TextInput {
id: mytext
text: "Console Catching Keys!"
anchors.centerIn: parent
}
HandsetInputContext {
id:receiver
target: mytext
}
}
