IKeymanKeyboardFile2::Install2 Method

Introduction

The IKeymanKeyboardFile2::Install2 method installs the keyboard file (.kmx) into Keyman Engine for Windows. This includes copying the file into the Keyman Engine keyboard store, adding registry settings, and optionally installing the Windows input method. As installing Windows input methods is an asynchronous process, this method may not be complete when it returns.

This method adds the keyboard to the default language as specified in the IKeymanKeyboard::DefaultBCP47Languages property. This method is the same as calling IKeymanKeyboardsInstalled::Install and passing the IKeymanKeyboard::Filename property from this instance.

This method requires elevated privileges.

Specification

void Install(bool Force, bool InstallDefaultLanguage)

Parameters

Force

If True, overwrites an existing keyboard entry.
