NAME
XCreateIC, XDestroyIC, XIMOfIC - create, destroy, and obtain the input method of an input context
SYNTAX
XIC XCreateIC(XIM _i_m, ...);
void XDestroyIC(XIC _i_c);
XIM XIMOfIC(XIC _i_c);
ARGUMENTS
-
_i_c
Specifies the input context.
-
-
_i_m
Specifies the input method.
-
-
...
Specifies the variable length argument list to set XIC values.
-
DESCRIPTION
The
_X_C_r_e_a_t_e_I_C
function creates a context within the specified input method.
Some of the arguments are mandatory at creation time, and
the input context will not be created if those arguments are not provided.
The mandatory arguments are the input style and the set of text callbacks
(if the input style selected requires callbacks).
All other input context values can be set later.
_X_C_r_e_a_t_e_I_C
returns a NULL value if no input context could be created.
A NULL value could be returned for any of the following reasons:
-
·
A required argument was not set.
-
-
·
A read-only argument was set (for example,
-
_X_N_F_i_l_t_e_r_E_v_e_n_t_s).
-
·
The argument name is not recognized.
-
-
·
The input method encountered an input method implementation-dependent error.
-
The
_X_C_r_e_a_t_e_I_C
can generate
_B_a_d_A_t_o_m,
_B_a_d_C_o_l_o_r,
_B_a_d_P_i_x_m_a_p,
and
_B_a_d_W_i_n_d_o_w
errors.
_X_D_e_s_t_r_o_y_I_C
destroys the specified input context.
The
_X_I_M_O_f_I_C
function returns the input method associated with the specified input context.
DIAGNOSTICS
-
_B_a_d_A_t_o_m
-
A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.
-
_B_a_d_C_o_l_o_r
-
A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
-
_B_a_d_P_i_x_m_a_p
-
A value for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
-
_B_a_d_W_i_n_d_o_w
-
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
