long keypress When program is run background??

[A.A.M.]

when the program is running in emulator there is no output is this only work in phone

See this - Running Console Applications in Carbide.c++

But better to test the application on the device.

sir,
i have written application using "SDK S60 3rd edition FP1" does it work on Nokia 6670

6670 is based on S60 2nd Edition, Feature Pack 1. And there is a binary break between S60 2nd and S60 3rd platform. So in brief and precise, you cannot run it on 6670.

sir,
i have written an application for long keypress in SDK S60 3rd edition FP1

i want to run it in N72 what should i do?

As far as I know, there isn't any change in the APIs for achieving this. So you just need to build it for S60 2nd edition, FP3 SDK(because N72 is a S60 2nd edition, FP3 device).

If you haven't installed that SDK, download it from S60 Platform SDKs ( from drop-down list, select 2nd Edition, FP3 version) and install it.

If you have Carbide.c++ v2.0, then it does not support S60 2nd edition SDKs, officially. You can hack it as explained in this blog: http://blogs.forum.nokia.com/blog/lu...carbide.c-v1.3

Or

Download Carbide.c++ v1.2.2 from this link: http://www.forum.nokia.com/Resources.../Archive.xhtml

After setting up environment, simply create a new project under S60 2nd edition, FP3 SDK and copy-paste your logic in that new project, which you have created for S60 3rd FP1 version.

I hope this helps.

sir,
The long keypress not working in my N72 when this code use

TTime iStartTime;
TTime iEndTime;
TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds iInterval;
TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds minIntervalRequiered = TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds(2 * 1000 * 1000); //two seconds

// connect to window server
RWsSession ws;
TKeyCode keyCode = EKeyApplication0;
User::LeaveIfError(ws.Connect());
CleanupClosePushL(ws);


TRequestStatus status;

// create a window group for the thread
RWindowGroup wg(ws);
wg.Construct((TUint32)&wg, EFalse);
CleanupClosePushL(wg);


// capture a key up and down events
User::LeaveIfError(wg.CaptureKeyUpAndDowns(EStdKeyApplication19, 0, 0)); // scan code of camera button is EStdKeyApplication19

// listen for the key presses
ws.EventReady(&status);


// hide this window group from the app switcher
wg.SetOrdinalPosition(-1);
wg.EnableReceiptOfFocus(EFalse);
CApaWindowGroupName* wn=CApaWindowGroupName::NewLC(ws);
wn->SetHidden(ETrue);
wn->SetWindowGroupName(wg);


// handle key events
for(;;) {
User::WaitForAnyRequest(); //wait for events
if (status.Int()==KErrNone) { //if not error
TWsEvent e;
ws.GetEvent(e);

TInt eventType;
eventType = e.Type();

if(eventType == EEventKeyDown){
iStartTime.UniversalTime(); //key down time
}
else if (eventType == EEventKeyUp){
iEndTime.UniversalTime(); //key up time
iInterval = iEndTime.MicroSecondsFrom(iStartTime); //difference = duration of the press
if (iInterval> minIntervalRequiered)
{
console = Console::NewL(KTextConsoleTitle, TSize(KConsFullScreen,KConsFullScreen));
console->Write(_L("Long key press, press 5 to end daemon\n"));
keyCode = console->Getch();
delete console;
}
}

// if not ours, then send to top window group
// note that this breaks key repeat :-(
TInt wgid=ws.GetFocusWindowGroup();
ws.SendEventToWindowGroup(wgid, e);
}
ws.EventReady(&status);

// stop condition
if (keyCode == EStdKeyF11){ break; }
}

// clean up
ws.EventReadyCancel();
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(3); //ws, wg, wn

You are capturing Camera key in your application. It might not be the same in N72. What you should do is to create one test application which captures all keys and trace the value of camera key. Once you determine the correct key code for camera key, use that in your main application.

sir,

what changes should be made ,so as to retrieve the keypress 2

TTime iStartTime;
TTime iEndTime;
TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds iInterval;
TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds minIntervalRequiered = TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds(2 * 1000 * 1000); //two seconds

// connect to window server
RWsSession ws;
TKeyCode keyCode = EKeyApplication0;
User::LeaveIfError(ws.Connect());
CleanupClosePushL(ws);


TRequestStatus status;

// create a window group for the thread
RWindowGroup wg(ws);
wg.Construct((TUint32)&wg, EFalse);
CleanupClosePushL(wg);


// capture a key up and down events
User::LeaveIfError(wg.CaptureKeyUpAndDowns(EStdKeyApplication19, 0, 0)); // scan code of camera button is EStdKeyApplication19

// listen for the key presses
ws.EventReady(&status);


// hide this window group from the app switcher
wg.SetOrdinalPosition(-1);
wg.EnableReceiptOfFocus(EFalse);
CApaWindowGroupName* wn=CApaWindowGroupName::NewLC(ws);
wn->SetHidden(ETrue);
wn->SetWindowGroupName(wg);


// handle key events
for(;;) {
User::WaitForAnyRequest(); //wait for events
if (status.Int()==KErrNone) { //if not error
TWsEvent e;
ws.GetEvent(e);

TInt eventType;
eventType = e.Type();

if(eventType == EEventKeyDown){
iStartTime.UniversalTime(); //key down time
}
else if (eventType == EEventKeyUp){
iEndTime.UniversalTime(); //key up time
iInterval = iEndTime.MicroSecondsFrom(iStartTime); //difference = duration of the press
if (iInterval> minIntervalRequiered)
{
console = Console::NewL(KTextConsoleTitle, TSize(KConsFullScreen,KConsFullScreen));
console->Write(_L("Long key press, press 5 to end daemon\n"));
keyCode = console->Getch();
delete console;
}
}

// if not ours, then send to top window group
// note that this breaks key repeat :-(
TInt wgid=ws.GetFocusWindowGroup();
ws.SendEventToWindowGroup(wgid, e);
}
ws.EventReady(&status);

// stop condition
if (keyCode == EStdKeyF11){ break; }
}

// clean up
ws.EventReadyCancel();
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(3); //ws, wg, wn

[neel.soft]

what is ur exact problem ..Can u explain clearly?

Capturing long key press is too easy ...what ur problem ..which keys r u trying to capture..?

search for GlobalLongKeyPress.zip on wiki. It is a perfect example on how to capture long key press..

it will help u out..

Re-read my previous post thoroughly. I asked you to perform some steps; step by step. http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...5&postcount=35

[amitkankani]

but this is not a good idea as this scenario is used by the phone for Speed Dialing also if enable, so you should be using some other mechanism !!!

Yes. We have known issue for this case also: KIS000708 - Applications should not capture events from numeric keys

great confirmation! so trying to send SMS on long press of 3 is not a good idea !
