GridLayout for implementing a keyboard

I need to implement a (soft)keyboard for an Android application.
Is GridLayout the correct View widget to contain all the keys?
Or is there other widget more suited for this specific requirement?

Solution

  • I think you just need a KeyboardView, it's very easy, you don't need to make all the keys or use specific layouts.

    And here you will see a implementation that I made: Soft keyboard's POPUP layout
