Expand description
IMContext
defines the interface for GTK+ input methods. An input method
is used by GTK+ text input widgets like Entry
to map from key events to
Unicode character strings.
The default input method can be set programmatically via the
property::Settings::gtk-im-module
GtkSettings property. Alternatively, you may set
the GTK_IM_MODULE environment variable as documented in
[Running GTK+ Applications][gtk-running].
The Entry
property::Entry::im-module
and TextView
property::TextView::im-module
properties may also be used to set input methods for specific widget
instances. For instance, a certain entry widget might be expected to contain
certain characters which would be easier to input with a certain input
method.
An input method may consume multiple key events in sequence and finally output the composed result. This is called preediting, and an input method may provide feedback about this process by displaying the intermediate composition states as preedit text. For instance, the default GTK+ input method implements the input of arbitrary Unicode code points by holding down the Control and Shift keys and then typing “U” followed by the hexadecimal digits of the code point. When releasing the Control and Shift keys, preediting ends and the character is inserted as text. Ctrl+Shift+u20AC for example results in the € sign.
Additional input methods can be made available for use by GTK+ widgets as
loadable modules. An input method module is a small shared library which
implements a subclass of IMContext
or IMContextSimple
and exports
these four functions:
⚠️ The following code is in C ⚠️
void im_module_init(GTypeModule *module);
This function should register the GType
of the IMContext
subclass which
implements the input method by means of g_type_module_register_type()
. Note
that g_type_register_static()
cannot be used as the type needs to be
registered dynamically.
⚠️ The following code is in C ⚠️
void im_module_exit(void);
Here goes any cleanup code your input method might require on module unload.
⚠️ The following code is in C ⚠️
void im_module_list(const GtkIMContextInfo ***contexts, int *n_contexts)
{
*contexts = info_list;
*n_contexts = G_N_ELEMENTS (info_list);
}
This function returns the list of input methods provided by the module. The
example implementation above shows a common solution and simply returns a
pointer to statically defined array of GtkIMContextInfo
items for each
provided input method.
⚠️ The following code is in C ⚠️
GtkIMContext * im_module_create(const gchar *context_id);
This function should return a pointer to a newly created instance of the
IMContext
subclass identified by context_id
. The context ID is the same
as specified in the GtkIMContextInfo
array returned by im_module_list()
.
After a new loadable input method module has been installed on the system,
the configuration file gtk.immodules
needs to be
regenerated by [gtk-query-immodules-3.0][gtk-query-immodules-3.0],
in order for the new input method to become available to GTK+ applications.
This is an Abstract Base Class, you cannot instantiate it.
