What's new? =========== This release introduces a new library: libmaliit. It contains additional API for application developers to interact with input methods, such as querying the input method area, orientation handling or dynamic key overrides.
Before, any interaction with Maliit (that went beyond Qt's input context API) either required linkage against libmeegotouch or breakage of QInputContext's pluggability. To reflect those changes, the input context name was changed from "MInputContext" to "Maliit". Where can I get it? =================== * framework: http://gitorious.org/maliit/maliit-framework/archive-tarball/0.80.2 * plugins: http://gitorious.org/maliit/maliit-plugins/archive-tarball/0.80.1 What is it? =========== Maliit provides a flexible and cross-platform input method framework, including a virtual keyboard. It works on all MeeGo user experiences, and in other GNU/Linux distributions. Visit http://maliit.org for more information about the project. Who contributed to this release? ================================ * Jan Arne Petersen * Jon Nordby * Michael Hasselmann What changed in detail? ======================= CHANGES IN FRAMEWORK SINCE 0.80.1 * New libmaliit contains additional API for application developers to interact with input methods (besides Qt's input context API): - Maliit::InputMethod: Query input method area and control input method orientation, - Maliit::AttributeExtension: Allows to control input method toolbar and customization of certain virtual keyboard keys, - Maliit::PreeditInjectionEvent: Used by text entries to inject a new preedit into the input context, - Maliit namespace for all input method related enums, superseds MInputMethod namespace. * New input context name: - Use QT_IM_MODULE=Maliit for regular builds and QT_IM_MODULE=MInputContext for legacy builds. * Script for making Maliit Plugin SDK tarball. * Enabled all unit tests again. BUG FIXES * Fixes: Settings applet does not compile with enable-meegotouch * Fixes: NB#268826 _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
