Public Constructors

public KeyEvent.DispatcherState ()

Since: API Level 5

Public Methods

public void handleUpEvent (KeyEvent event)

Since: API Level 5

Handle key up event to stop tracking. This resets the dispatcher state, and updates the key event state based on it.

This is only needed if you are directly dispatching events, rather than handling them in onKeyUp(int, KeyEvent).

public boolean isTracking (KeyEvent event)

Since: API Level 5

Return true if the key event is for a key code that is currently being tracked by the dispatcher.

public void performedLongPress (KeyEvent event)

Since: API Level 5

Keep track of the given event's key code as having performed an action with a long press, so no action should occur on the up.

This is only needed if you are directly dispatching events, rather than handling them in onKeyLongPress(int, KeyEvent).

public void reset (Object target)

Since: API Level 5

Stop any tracking associated with this target.

public void reset ()

Since: API Level 5

Reset back to initial state.

public void startTracking (KeyEvent event, Object target)

Since: API Level 5

Start tracking the key code associated with the given event. This can only be called on a key down. It will allow you to see any long press associated with the key, and will result in isTracking() return true on the long press and up events.

This is only needed if you are directly dispatching events, rather than handling them in onKeyDown(int, KeyEvent).
