[android-developers] FLAG_VIRTUAL_HARD_KEY

Hi All,

Has anyone got experience in creating virtual hard key area? How does on dedicate a hardware button to a virtual key area.

I have a mobile phone from Runbo which has the following physical buttons - Vol up/down, camera, PTT (push-to-talk) button, SOS and ET. Plus it has the usual back, menu, search and home button.

Using the function onKeyUp(...) and onKeyDown(...), I am able to detect all buttons expect for PTT. None of these functions get called when I press/release the PTT button. This leads me to believe that it could be a virtual hard key. 

However I am not sure how to create a sample application to test this.

Any ideas will be good.

Thanks

public static final int FLAG_VIRTUAL_HARD_KEY

Added in API level 5

This key event was generated by a virtual (on-screen) hard key area. Typically this is an area of the touchscreen, outside of the regular display, dedicated to "hardware" buttons.

Constant Value: 64 (0x00000040)
