iOS Question Custom Keyboard

[Yvon Steinthal]

Hi,

I am currently trying to add a custom keyboard in B4i for an iOS app.
So far i've figured that the keyboard is called upon the KeyboardStateChanged Event.

My question is simple, how can i forbid the keyboard to pop up, and instead show my custom
keyboard. (a custom panel with custom buttons basically...)

Any clues or advice would be appreciated.

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", myPanel)

Thanks, but what is mytxt? I tried to set it to TextView but then nothing happens when textview is focused.

did you try textfield ?

 

[tufanv]

I tried textfield but couldn't make the code work.

 

[narek adonts]

Please post your code.

 

[tufanv]

Please post your code.

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", Array(myPanel))

I tries it under mytxt_click , mytxt_beginedit, resize but could not make it work.

Put this code after initializing mytxt. Do not put in the mytxt events

I initialize mytxt with a designer. So where should i put it exactly ?

 

[narek adonts]

Try after loading the layout

Try after loading the layout

It still gives the error:

-[B4IArray nextResponder]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1469b300

this is wrong

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", Array(myPanel))

It should be

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", myPanel)

 

[tufanv]

this is wrong

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", Array(myPanel))

It should be

Dim no as NativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", myPanel)

I corrected the code, now getting

child view controller:<UICompatibilityInputViewController: 0x1553f090> should have parent view controller:Page (vc): Döviz Çevirici but requested parent is:<UIInputWindowController: 0x15baf000>

can it be a designer problem ? Maybe the panel should be parent of something ?

Please upload your project or send me by pm

I did use

Dim no asNativeObject=mytxt

No.setField("inputView", myPanel)

myPanel being my custom keyboard as a Panel.

However i must warn that there may be a different way to do this, or im making a mistake somewhere in my code, as the debug works fine, but the release is just crashing when i press certain keys on my custom keyboard...

 

[narek adonts]

I dont think that the crash is related to the InputView.
Try to use iReleaseLogger to find the bug

 

[Yvon Steinthal]

I have succesfully used the iReleaseLogger and found it was because i had an infinite loop due to an object comparison.... in any case its solved by using the tag of each objects instead of their reference....

Can you please share how this problem was resolved. I am facing the same issue.
