Trying to fix bug 2400 - delete and comma

[agaro agaro]

Hi all,

I'm trying to fix bug 2400 - removes one char and puts comma simultaneously.

My guess: this old bug is in dlls/x11drv/keyboard.c or
dlls/user/message.c, something about dead keys implementation.

Can somebody help me with a little explanation or documentation? I
don't know what scancode, keycode and vkey mean.

Thanks,
agaro

I know now what scancode, keycode and vkey are! :)

Some references:
* ScanCode and KeyCode
http://lct.sourceforge.net/lct/x60.html
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Keyboard-and-Console-HOWTO-2.html
http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-1.html
* Virtual-Key Codes (vkey)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/winui...

I thought the problem was in TranslateMessage (dlls/user/message.c)
and X11DRV_ToUnicodeEx (dlls/x11drv/keyboard.c) functions but I found
others suspects: EVENT_event_to_vkey and X11DRV_InitKeyBoard (boths in
dlls/x11drv/keyboard.c).

What is happening? (in brazilian abnt2 keyboard with wine-0.9.9)

The EVENT_event_to_vkey function return the wrong value 0x2E to
X11DRV_KeyEvent which emits an event through X11DRV_send_keyboard_input.

On MSDN and dlls/user/spy.c VK_SEPARATOR virtual key code apears as
0x6C, however in trace below apears as 0x2E while in both cases
keycodes are equals. The 0x2E virtual key code value corresponds to
VK_DELETE.

My guess for now: X11DRV_InitKeyboard function initialize keyc2vkey
array with wrong value for this case.
