Pointer handling in Qt/Embedded works for any mouse or mouse-like
device such as touchpanels and trackballs.
<p> Usually only one pointer device is supported in an embedded device,
but for demonstration purposes, Qt/Embedded includes a large number of
supported devices.
<p> <h2> Mouse Protocols
</h2>
<a name="1"></a><p> Qt/Embedded normally auto-detects the mouse type and device if it is one of
the supported types on <tt>/dev/psaux</tt> or one of the <tt>/dev/ttyS?</tt>
serial lines. If multiple mice are detected, all may be used simultaneously.
<p> Alternatively, you may set the environment variable <tt>QWS_MOUSE_PROTO</tt> to
determine which mouse to use. This environment variable may be set to:
<blockquote>
<em><protocol></em><tt>:</tt><em><device></em>
</blockquote>
where <em><protocol></em> is one of:
<ul>
<li> MouseMan
<li> IntelliMouse
<li> Microsoft
</ul>
and <em><device></em> is the mouse device, often <tt>/dev/mouse</tt>.
If no such variable is specified, the built-in default
is <tt>Auto</tt>, which enables auto-detection of the mouse protocol
and device.
<p> To add another protocol, new subclasses of QAutoMouseSubHandler or
QMouseHandler can be written in <tt>kernel/qwsmouse_qws.cpp</tt>.
<p> <h2> Touch Panels
</h2>
<a name="2"></a><p> Qt/Embedded ships with support for the NEC Vr41XX touchpanel
and the iPAQ touchpanel.
These are subclasses of QCalibratedMouseHandler which is in turn
a subclass of QMouseHandler in <tt>kernel/qwsmouse_qws.cpp</tt>.
