Hi all.
I have a list of new keyboards that we ship with our product due to using a
different Character set.
the keyboard setup goes to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard
Layouts
the new key needs a Unique name, I'm currently (for UK) using d1000809, and
this is hard coded into my WIX installer. I'm sure this is the wrong way of
doing it, and I should be able to "look" at the keys there and pick
something that isn't used. (the last 3 or 4 chars must be 804 or 0809 for a
UK Keyboard as I understand it.)
Also, to automatically load install the keyboard to the users profile, I
need to look in HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Preload
in here is some Stings named with a number (1, 2, 3, etc...) and with the
value of the keyboard (in this case d1000809) but it appears if I hard code
then firstly i'm concerned that I'll overwrite a keyboard someone already
has defined, and secondly if there is a gap, EG(1, 2, 4) then number 4 won't
be seen. so I need a way of looking at what the latest is, and then add this
to the registry as appropriate.
This also gets more fun because in theory people will want 1 or maybe 2
keyboards, but in practice (if they don't really know what they're doing)
they could install up to around 25 additional keyboards.
is there a way I can do this?
