Hi Garrett, Thanks for review.
Basically, the event from virtual-keyboard is sent as ibus-signal (== dbus-signal) to client through ibus-daemon. All of InputMethod aware client will link ibus-client library and
the library calls InputMethod commit callback function for the signal. Naoyuki (2010年07月24日 01:24), Garrett D'Amore wrote:
Looks good to me, +1. Question: are these events recorded as "synthetic" events to X, or are they indistinguishable to X and apps from real keypresses? -- Garrett On Thu, 2010-07-22 at 23:30 -0700, Fuyuki Hasegawa wrote:I'm sponsoring this fast-track case for Noayuki.

Project/Component Working Name: IBus Virtual Keyboard Input Method 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Naoyuki Ishimura 1.3 Date of This Document: 22 July, 2010 4. Technical Description OVERVIEW This project is to add virtual keyboard GUI to IBus Input Method framework[1]. This virtual keyboard enables user to input all of xkeyboard-config[2] supported layout symbols with GUI. This is an extension for keyboard layout emulation engine for IBus[3]. DETAILES The IBus virtual keyboard uses layout and geometry data which keyboard layout emulation engine uses. (478 layouts/variants) User can switch layout(France, Russia, Greece etc) and geometry (simple, pc101, pc102 etc) from menu, and input characters to Input Method aware text field/area of X11 applications. This IBus virtual keyboard corresponds to IIIM virtual keyboard[4]. Solaris default Input Method framework will move to IBus from IIIM, so virtual keyboard users need to use the IBus virtula keyboard when Input Method framework switched to IBus for their desktop. USER OPERATION To invoke IBus virtual keyboard, user executes /usr/bin/ibus-keyboard or selects "Virtual Keyboard' menu item from IBus main menu in gnome-panel system tray. When user select favorite layout (ex Russia, Greece, France etc...) from context menu, the key top label is chagned to corresponding leyout. Then user can input character on key top with clicking it. The character event will go to the current focused input field. (virtual keyboard itself does not get input focus) INTERFACE STABILITIES All of components for this engine are Projectt Private.
