[MeeGo-dev] can't overrride virtual keyboard

[Yoon, Youngsik]

Hi,

Please run that command as root.
And to apply your change, you need to restart gconf daemon or reboot.

Thanks,
Yoon

Hi,

When i am changing the gconf properties its giving following  error.

#gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen "my plugin name"

None of the resolved addresses are writable;saving configuration settings will not be possible

Error setting value: Can't overwrite existing read-only value: value for /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen' set in a read  only source at the front of your configuration path


Thanks

Yuvaraj R

Hi,

I compiled default virtual keyboard and invoked with

gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen MeegoKeyboard

But same thing is happening.

My images are

File system - meego-handset-armv7l-n900-1.1.90.2.20110209.4-mmcblk0p.raw.bz2
Kernel      - meego-handset-armv7l-n900-devel-1.1.90.2.20110209.4-vmlinuz-2.6.37-6.2-adaptation-n900


Note: before doing modifications I seen default virtual keyboard. Problem is occurred after excuting "gconftool-2" command


How do I restart meego-im-uiserver?

Thanks

Yuvaraj R

Hi,

I don't know which version you are using...
But It seems that you need to check this bug.
https://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13893(VKB doesn't launch and HWKB doesn't work)

I recommend that you should build development environment that default virtual keyboard works fine first.
And then replace default keyboard with your custom keyboard for test.

Thanks,
Yoon

Hi Youngsik

I invoked my virtual keyboard plugin by

gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen mypluginname.

After that I tried to type something in input filed of sms. But I didn't get any virtual keyboard there (not able to type through hard keyboard also).

Then again invoked default virtual keyboard through
gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen MeegoKeyboard. Didn't get default virtual keyboard UI.

Please correct if I am going anywhere wrong.

Thanks

Hi

I followed your steps. But I am not getting my UI there. Just I over written the show () and hide () method in MKeyboardHost.cpp file.

Sample stubs

MWidget myUI(sceneWindow);
void MKeyboardHost::show()
{
 myUI.show();
}
Void MKeyboardHost::hide()
{
myUI.hide();
}

Thanks

Did you implement plugin class something like MKeyboardPlugin?
Or you are just using MKeyboardPlugin class as is from meegotouch-inputmethodkeyboard package?

If the former, you need to set exactly the same value in gconf as what you set in MInputMethodPlugin::name().

If the latter, you can just replace /usr/lib/meego-in-plugin/libmeego-keyboard.so with your libxxx.so. And test it.
(it means that you just use the same plugin name as default named "MeegoKeyboard". don't need to set plugin name in gconf.)

Thanks,
Yoon

Hi Youngsik

To override default virtual keyboard, followed below steps

1) Created  my own plugin (as library)

Sample code:
class MKeyboardHost: public MAbstractInputMethod
{
    Q_OBJECT
private:
    QWidget wid;
public:
    MKeyboardHost(MAbstractInputMethodHost *imHost, QObject *parent = 0):MAbstractInputMethod(imHost, parent)
    {
       scene =new MSceneWindow;
         scene->setManagedManually(true);
         MPlainWindow::instance()->sceneManager()->appearSceneWindow(scene);
    }

    virtual ~MKeyboardHost()
    {
         //Destructor
    }
     void show()
     {
         wid.show();

     }

     void hide()
     {
         wid.hide();
     }

};

Step2:

Copied plugin to /usr/lib/meego-in-plugins

Step3:

Restarted meego-im-uiserver


Please correct, if I am doing anything wrong here


Thanks

I think it should not be library name like xxx.so.
It should be your plugin name setting in MInputMethodPlugin::name().

Thanks,
Yoon

Hi
I executed gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen libmylibrary.so.

But no changes happened. How can I verify whether meego-im-uiserver is running or not?


Thanks

Current VKB plugin is determined through GConf. Youngsik Yoon found out
how to change those "read-only" values:

# gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /meegotouch/inputmethods/plugins/onscreen "xxxxx"

where xxxxx is the name of your plugin. If the meego-im-uiserver is
running while changing this value, it should switch the plugin
immediately.

regards,
Michael
