Can we use the virtual keyboard through the libretro core? #181

Closed DrUm78 closed 1 year ago

DrUm78 commented 3 years ago

I did not manage to get the virtual keyboard activated and appearing with the libretro core, anyone managed to do it? I included it in "/base/main.cpp":

ConfMan.set("vkeybdpath", "/opk/extra", Common::ConfigManager::kApplicationDomain);
ConfMan.set("vkeybd_pack_name", "vkeybd_small", Common::ConfigManager::kApplicationDomain);

I tried to bind some keys (SDL or Linux keycodes) to some various virtual keyboard activation events through the whole code but in vain. This documentation seems to be only for the native port: https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Virtual_Keyboard and this method does not work (binding a key to "Common::KEYCODE_F7" event) as I use this sdlretro frontent to load the core and send the keycode inputs: https://github.com/FunKey-Project/sdlretro

I tend to think that's it's not possible at the moment through a libretro frontend, am I wrong?

Thanks!

Virtual keyboard is available in ScummVM mainline libretro core, included in current Lakka master.
