Receiving key input from iOS on-screen keyboard without using any visible control
My programming background comes from C and some C++ programming with strong emphasis on C# at the last years.
  
I am very new to Cocoa and ObjectiveC programming (not to mention Mac stuff) and I am developing an iPad application.

I would like to get keyboard codes from the standard on-screen keyboard but without using any (at least visible) control like Text Field. Also, I would like to get the key codes as soon you press it, detecting both the key down and up events.

Any hints on how that is doable?

Thank you in advance
