[maemo-developers] Developing virtual keyboard plugin for Maemo 5

Fri Feb 12 17:48:18 EET 2010

Hello,

Thanks for the link.

I referred

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Maemo:/Mer:/Devel:/MaemoCommon/MerDevel_Ubuntu_9.04/

And I could find few sample virtual keyboard plug-in installers and tried
replacing the default keyboard plugin. It worked.

But I could not find any API documentation or samples on how to use new
framework APIs.

Can you please provide me the link if any.

Thanks
