XmbResetIC(3X11) X Version 11 (Release 6.6) XmbResetIC(3X11)
NAME
XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC - reset the state of an input context
SYNTAX
char * XmbResetIC(ic)
XIC ic;
wchar_t * XwcResetIC(ic)
XIC ic;
ARGUMENTS
ic Specifies the input context.
DESCRIPTION
When XNResetState is set to XIMInitialState, XmbResetIC and
XwcResetIC 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 or XwcResetIC does
not change the focus.
The return value of XmbResetIC is its current preedit string
as a multibyte 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.
