XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC,
Xutf8ResetIC - reset the state of an input context
- char *XmbResetIC(XIC
ic);
- wchar_t *XwcResetIC(XIC ic);
- char *Xutf8ResetIC(XIC ic);
- ic
- Specifies
the input context.
When XNResetState is set to XIMInitialState,
XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC and Xutf8ResetIC reset an input context
to its initial state; when XNResetState is set to XIMPreserveState,
the current input context state is preserved. In both cases, any input
pending on that context is deleted. The input method is required to clear
the preedit area, if any, and update the status accordingly. Calling XmbResetIC,
XwcResetIC or Xutf8ResetIC does not change the focus.
The return value
of XmbResetIC is its current preedit string as a multibyte string. The
return value of XwcResetIC is its current preedit string as a wide character
string. The return value of Xutf8ResetIC is its current preedit string
as an UTF-8 string. If there is any preedit text drawn or visible to the
user, then these procedures must return a non-NULL string. If there is no
visible preedit text, then it is input method implementation-dependent
whether these procedures return a non-NULL string or NULL.
The client should
free the returned string by calling XFree.
The function Xutf8ResetIC
is an extension introduced by The XFree86 Project, Inc. in their 4.0.2 release.
Its presence is indicated by the macro X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING.
