Hmm, i'm not really sure how the BPrivate namespace should be used
throughout the project. I mean, even for a public API? I'm asking
since Keymap preflet and 3rd party tools are the target audience. Or
i miss something?
Haiku R1 should be binary backwards compatible with BeOS R5, that
means you still have to provide implementations for the old API.
If new public API is introduced in Haiku R1 there is no guarantee that
it will stay stable until R2. As a consequence if it is not really
necessary, I would avoid to introduce public API and would keep it
private between the preflet and the input server. I think that's what
BPrivate namespace is for.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
