Predictive Text using a CEikEdwin

[juliand77]

Has anyone ever managed to get predictive text working using a CEikEdwin derived class on S60?

Im having problems getting my CEikEdwin class in anything other than numeric input mode and it doesnt seem to have predictive text support enabled by default.

Ive searched a number of forums and found a number of people having the same problem but couldnt find any solutions.

Ive done a bit of digging in the SDK header files and found that CEikEdwin doesnt actually derive from MCoeFepAwareTextEditor - although it does have an CAknEdwinState member that itself derives from MCoeFepAwareTextEditor.

However when you try and call CEikEdwin::EditorState() on S60 3.0 you get an undefined symbol error, and the CEikEdwin header seems to suggest that the EditorState() function is deprecated....

Do I have to use TCoeInputCapabilities to tell the framework that my editor window should use FEP.

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Thanks

Have a look into Editor examples (either in the Wiki or in the SDK) and figure out what you are doing differently. T9 should work pretty nicely by default, unless you have disabled it with flags.

Thanks for your reply.

Ive tried using both a CEikRichTextControl from the SDK example, and a CEikEdwin using the example on the FN wiki but unfortunately neither seem to work.

Has anyone got this working on S60 3rd and if so could they post any code to help point me in the right direction?

Im using the S60 3rd Maintenance Release.

Thanks

use the following to get access to the EditorState

MCoeFepAwareTextEditor* lFepEditor = iInputCapabilities.FepAwareTextEditor();
CAknEdwinState* lEdwinState = STATIC_CAST(CAknEdwinState*, lFepEditor->Extension1()->State(KNullUid));
