Andrey Isakov 2012-10-03 08:30:25 PDT I've found out in the process of porting one OS project to Android/SDL2 that there is no support for TextInput events/APIs on Android. So I implemented some kind of initial support of that feature, and at the very least it seems to work fine with latin chars input with soft and hardware keyboards on my Moto Milestone2. I've also tried playing around with more complex IMEs, like japanese, logging the process and it seemed to work too. I'm not sure since the app itself I am working on does not have support for non-latin input. The main point of the patch is to place a fake input view in the region specified by SDL_SetTextInputRect and create a custom InputConnection for it. The reason to make it a separate view is to support Android's pan&scan on input feature properly. For details please refer to http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/updating-applications-for-on-screen.html Even though the manual states that SetTextInputRect is used to determine the IME variants position, I thought this would be a proper use for this too.
Simple DirectMedia Layer
(SDL)
Version 2.0
---
http://www.libsdl.org/
This is the Simple DirectMedia Layer, a general API that provides low
level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL,
and 2D framebuffer across multiple platforms.
The current version supports Windows, Windows CE, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD,
NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS, Solaris, iOS, and Android. The code contains
support for other operating systems but those are not officially supported.
SDL is written in C, but works with C++ natively, and has bindings to
several other languages, including Ada, C#, Eiffel, Erlang, Euphoria,
Go, Guile, Haskell, Java, Lisp, Lua, ML, Objective C, Pascal, Perl, PHP,
Pike, Pliant, Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk.
This library is distributed under the zlib license, which can be found
in the file "COPYING".
The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in
the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory.
The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date.
More documentation is available in HTML format in "docs/index.html", and
a documentation wiki is available online at:
http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi
The test programs in the "test" subdirectory are in the public domain.
Frequently asked questions are answered online:
