Android Keyboard Layout and Mapping－Mr. Cooooooooooooode

首先，我要說android的keyboard layout的設計實在太神了

讓我想到鬆散結構與緊密結構的比較(各有優缺點)

Anyway，這偏要來談談android的keyboard layout and mapping

我們要找的檔案首先在

(1) android/development/emulator/keymaps/qwerty.kl (keyboard layout file)

(2) android/development/emulator/keymaps/qwerty.kcm (keyboard mapping file)

先來介紹qwerty.kl

這是一個keyboard layout 的檔案

你可以看到Linux kernel送上來的每一個scan code可以對應到android system中的keycode

而這個key code的定義在 android/framework/base/libs/ui/keylayoutmap.cpp中被系統load進來

這邊有一些qwerty.kl 的example，如下： (假設要implement hardware keypad請先設定這些key layout)
