Custom keyboard driver in Qt 5

[sibislaw45]

There was something called QWSKeyboardHandler and QKbdDriver in Qt4 embedded what was allowing user to create own custom keyboard driver.

What is the similar mechanism in Qt 5?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

What kind of keyboard do you have in mind ? A virtual keyboard or a custom hardware keyboard ?

I want to make something like virtual keyboard, but i will read input from i2c device in my application rather than from screen buttons.

I found something called QPlatformInputContextPlugin but there is very little documentation about it.

There's a pretty good and interesting article about it here from KDAB
