Support for external keyboard caps lock


Posted on Jun 22, 2011 by Grumpy Dog

Handle the external keyboard caps-lock state with a possible modified behaviour compared to android double shift: - Accented letters on keyboards should be capped (i.e. capslock+é should produce É instead of 1 on azerty keyboards)

No way to detect if editing starts in caps-lock mode. This means the little light on the keyboard can be the contrary of the current caps mode.

Limitation : if multiple keyboards are connected we do not want to handle their respective capslock states. One variable for all.

Note that there's no support for keycode_caps_lock in froyo it appears in API level 11 as keycode_caps_lock = 115
