1104694 - Unable to connect to Firefox OS keyboard app

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1093661

(DevTools Graveyard :: WebIDE, defect)

Description

[Zac C (:zac)]

I'm not sure when this regressed but I recall debugging the keyboard app using the old "Remote debugger".

STR:
1. Connect WebIDE to Flame
2. Manually open an app and open the keyboard

In the dropdown menu in WebIDE there is no Keyboard app option.

There is a "Built in keyboard" app but this launches the Settings app (perhaps it is following the wrong launch path).

I'll have to think about a way to handle this better...  The issue is that WebIDE is "too helpful" here, because it wants to start an app when you select it, instead of assuming it may already be open.

In any case, you can reach the keyboard via the System app and iframe selector (see bug 1100736 comment 1).
