[g-a-devel] key event simulation (was Re: gok: inquiry)

[David Bolter <david bolter utoronto ca>]

Raphael,

I think SPI_generateKeyboardEvent will do what you ask and it is 
documented here: 
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/at-spi/at-spi-cspi-Registry-queries.html

You might want to look at integrating the simpler keysynth demo program 
http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/at-spi/test/keysynth-demo.c?view=markup

If you build the at-spi you can run the program at-spi/test/keysynth-demo

(In GOK we do our key event stuff in gok/gok/gok-output.c. If you still 
want to embed GOK, let us know and we can point you to the relevant 
source code areas that will need attention. )

cheers,
David
