hi everyone,
I am trying to run a simple qt app on arm embedded board having linux2.6 as os.
The matrix keypad connected to board is 4X4(16 switches). In my qt programme i have just added a simple "line edit" in ui form and what i want is that, whichever switch i press on the keypad should be displayed in line edit. Well that is not happening. So, can any one please help me to do this thing. I would be really greatfull if any one could provide me a solution for this.
with regards,:confused:
With out code, or more details on HOW you implemented things, its hard to tell.Quote:

Does you line edit have keyboard focus?
You need to map the matrix keypad keys to Qt keys. I am assuming that your driver uses the Linux 'input' facilities. It should use keys defined in 'linux/input.h'. Is the keymap in the 4x4 Linux driver corresponding to something printable? If it maps to functions keys, you won't see anything even if your widget has focus.Quote:

If you don't specify a driver, then Qt will try to read some device on a serial port (using default configurations). You probably want 'QWS_KEYBOARD="LinuxInput:/dev/input/event1"' or something like that. You might have to recompile Qt to enable this driver.
