newRepeat The new repeat count of the event.

Public Methods

public int describeContents()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable's marshalled representation.

public final boolean dispatch(KeyEvent.Callback receiver)

Deliver this key event to a KeyEvent.Callback interface. If this is an ACTION_MULTIPLE event and it is not handled, then an attempt will be made to deliver a single normal event.

Parameters

receiver The Callback that will be given the event.

Returns

  • The return value from the Callback method that was called.

public final int getAction()

Retrieve the action of this key event. May be either ACTION_DOWN, ACTION_UP, or ACTION_MULTIPLE.

Returns

  • The event action: ACTION_DOWN, ACTION_UP, or ACTION_MULTIPLE.

public static int getDeadChar(int accent, int c)

Get the character that is produced by putting accent on the character c. For example, getDeadChar('`', 'e') returns è.

public final int getDeviceId()

Return the id for the keyboard that this event came from. A device id of 0 indicates the event didn't come from a physical device and maps to the default keymap. The other numbers are arbitrary and you shouldn't depend on the values.

See Also

public char getDisplayLabel()

Get the primary character for this key. In other words, the label that is physically printed on it.

public final long getDownTime()

Retrieve the time of the most recent key down event, in the uptimeMillis() time base. If this is a down event, this will be the same as getEventTime(). Note that when chording keys, this value is the down time of the most recently pressed key, which may not be the same physical key of this event.

Returns

  • Returns the most recent key down time, in the uptimeMillis() time base

public final long getEventTime()

Retrieve the time this event occurred, in the uptimeMillis() time base.

Returns

  • Returns the time this event occurred, in the uptimeMillis() time base.

public final int getFlags()

Returns the flags for this key event.

See Also

public final int getKeyCode()

Retrieve the key code of the key event. This is the physical key that was pressed -- not the Unicode character.

Returns

  • The key code of the event.

public boolean getKeyData(KeyCharacterMap.KeyData results)

Get the characters conversion data for the key event..

Parameters

results a KeyCharacterMap.KeyData that will be filled with the results.

Returns

  • whether the key was mapped or not. If the key was not mapped, results is not modified.

public final int getKeyboardDevice()

Renamed to getDeviceId().

public char getMatch(char[] chars, int modifiers)

If one of the chars in the array can be generated by the keyCode of this key event, return the char; otherwise return '\0'.

Parameters

chars the characters to try to find
modifiers the modifier bits to prefer. If any of these bits are set, if there are multiple choices, that could work, the one for this modifier will be set.

public char getMatch(char[] chars)

The same as getMatch(chars, 0).

public final int getMetaState()

Returns the state of the meta keys.

Returns

  • an integer in which each bit set to 1 represents a pressed meta key

public char getNumber()

Gets the number or symbol associated with the key. The character value is returned, not the numeric value. If the key is not a number, but is a symbol, the symbol is retuned.

public final int getRepeatCount()

Retrieve the repeat count of the event. For both key up and key down events, this is the number of times the key has repeated with the first down starting at 0 and counting up from there. For multiple key events, this is the number of down/up pairs that have occurred.

Returns

  • The number of times the key has repeated.

public final int getScanCode()

Retrieve the hardware key id of this key event. These values are not reliable and vary from device to device.

Mostly this is here for debugging purposes.

public int getUnicodeChar(int meta)

Returns the Unicode character that the key would produce.

Returns 0 if the key is not one that is used to type Unicode characters.

If the return value has bit COMBINING_ACCENT set, the key is a "dead key" that should be combined with another to actually produce a character -- see getDeadChar(int, int) -- after masking with COMBINING_ACCENT_MASK.

public int getUnicodeChar()

Returns the Unicode character that the key would produce.

Returns 0 if the key is not one that is used to type Unicode characters.

If the return value has bit COMBINING_ACCENT set, the key is a "dead key" that should be combined with another to actually produce a character -- see getDeadChar(int, int) -- after masking with COMBINING_ACCENT_MASK.

public final boolean isAltPressed()

Returns the pressed state of the ALT meta key.

Returns

  • true if the ALT key is pressed, false otherwise

public final boolean isDown()

Don't use in new code, instead explicitly check getAction().

Returns

  • If the action is ACTION_DOWN, returns true; else false.

public static boolean isModifierKey(int keyCode)

Returns true if this key code is a modifier key.

Returns

public boolean isPrintingKey()

Does the key code of this key produce a glyph?

public final boolean isShiftPressed()

Returns the pressed state of the SHIFT meta key.

Returns

  • true if the SHIFT key is pressed, false otherwise

public final boolean isSymPressed()

Returns the pressed state of the SYM meta key.

Returns

  • true if the SYM key is pressed, false otherwise

public final boolean isSystem()

Is this a system key? System keys can not be used for menu shortcuts. TODO: this information should come from a table somewhere. TODO: should the dpad keys be here? arguably, because they also shouldn't be menu shortcuts

public String toString()

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the receiver.

Returns

  • String a printable representation for the receiver.

public void writeToParcel(Parcel out, int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.
