.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XOpenIM
|
|
function opens an input method,
|
|
matching the current locale and modifiers specification.
|
|
Current locale and modifiers are bound to the input method at opening time.
|
|
The locale associated with an input method cannot be changed dynamically.
|
|
This implies that the strings returned by
|
|
.ZN XmbLookupString
|
|
or
|
|
.ZN XwcLookupString ,
|
|
for any input context affiliated with a given input method
|
|
will be encoded in the locale current at the time the input method is opened.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The specific input method to which this call will be routed
|
|
is identified on the basis of the current locale.
|
|
.ZN XOpenIM
|
|
will identify a default input method corresponding to the
|
|
current locale.
|
|
That default can be modified using
|
|
.ZN XSetLocaleModifiers
|
|
for the input method modifier.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The db argument is the resource database to be used by the input method
|
|
for looking up resources that are private to the input method.
|
|
It is not intended that this database be used to look
|
|
up values that can be set as IC values in an input context.
|
|
If db is NULL,
|
|
no database is passed to the input method.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The res_name and res_class arguments specify the resource name
|
|
and class of the application.
|
|
They are intended to be used as prefixes by the input method
|
|
when looking up resources that are common to all input contexts
|
|
that may be created for this input method.
|
|
The characters used for resource names and classes must be in the
|
|
X Portable Character Set.
|
|
The resources looked up are not fully specified
|
|
if res_name or res_class is NULL.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The res_name and res_class arguments are not assumed to exist beyond
|
|
the call to
|
|
.ZN XOpenIM .
|
|
The specified resource database is assumed to exist for the lifetime
|
|
of the input method.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XOpenIM
|
|
returns NULL if no input method could be opened.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XCloseIM
|
|
function closes the specified input method.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XSetIMValues
|
|
function presents a variable argument list programming interface
|
|
for setting attributes of the specified input method.
|
|
It returns NULL if it succeeds;
|
|
otherwise,
|
|
it returns the name of the first argument that could not be set.
|
|
Xlib does not attempt to set arguments from the supplied list that
|
|
follow the failed argument;
|
|
all arguments in the list preceding the failed argument have been set
|
|
correctly.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XGetIMValues
|
|
function presents a variable argument list programming interface
|
|
for querying properties or features of the specified input method.
|
|
This function returns NULL if it succeeds;
|
|
otherwise,
|
|
it returns the name of the first argument that could not be obtained.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Each XIM value argument (following a name) must point to
|
|
a location where the XIM value is to be stored.
|
|
That is, if the XIM value is of type T,
|
|
the argument must be of type T*.
|
|
If T itself is a pointer type,
|
|
then
|
|
.ZN XGetIMValues
|
|
allocates memory to store the actual data,
|
|
and the client is responsible for freeing this data by calling
|
|
.ZN XFree
|
|
with the returned pointer.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XDisplayOfIM
|
|
function returns the display associated with the specified input method.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XLocaleOfIM
|
|
function returns the locale associated with the specified input method.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback
|
|
function registers a callback to be invoked whenever a new input method
|
|
becomes available for the specified display that matches the current
|
|
locale and modifiers.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The function returns
|
|
.ZN True
|
|
if it succeeds; otherwise, it returns
|
|
.ZN False .
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XUnregisterIMInstantiateCallback
|
|
function removes an input method instantiation callback previously
|
|
registered.
|
|
The function returns
|
|
.ZN True
|
|
if it succeeds; otherwise, it returns
|
|
.ZN False .
