Overview
Capturing the End (red) key during a call
Description
An application can capture the the End key even during an active call using the following kind of code.
Please note that SwEvent capability is needed to make successful calls to the mentioned Window Server functions.
#include <W32STD.H> // link against ws32.lib
#include <e32keys.h>
...
RWindowGroup& groupWin = CCoeEnv::Static()->RootWin();
TInt endKey1 = groupWin.CaptureKeyUpAndDowns( EStdKeyNo, 0, 0 );
TInt endKey2 = groupWin.CaptureKey( EKeyNo, 0, 0 );
// -> End key can now be processed before the phone application of the device...
...
// Cancel the capture
groupWin.CancelCaptureKeyUpAndDowns( endKey1 );
groupWin.CancelCaptureKey( endKey2 );
This solution has been tested using Nokia N73 (SW: 2.0620.0.05).
