<div class="refsect1">
<a name="GtkIMContext.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>
<a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext"><span class="type">GtkIMContext</span></a> defines the interface for GTK+ input methods. An input method
is used by GTK+ text input widgets like <a class="link" href="GtkEntry.html" title="GtkEntry"><span class="type">GtkEntry</span></a> to map from key events to
Unicode character strings.
</p>
<p>
The user may change the current input method via a context menu, unless the   
<a class="link" href="GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings--gtk-show-input-method-menu" title='The "gtk-show-input-method-menu" property'><span class="type">"gtk-show-input-method-menu"</span></a> GtkSettings property is set to FALSE. 
The default input method can be set programmatically via the 
<a class="link" href="GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings--gtk-im-module" title='The "gtk-im-module" property'><span class="type">"gtk-im-module"</span></a> GtkSettings property. Alternatively, you may set 
the GTK_IM_MODULE environment variable as documented in <a class="link" href="gtk-running.html" title="Running GTK+ Applications"><span class="type">gtk-running</span></a>.
</p>
<p>
The <a class="link" href="GtkEntry.html" title="GtkEntry"><span class="type">GtkEntry</span></a> <a class="link" href="GtkEntry.html#GtkEntry--im-module" title='The "im-module" property'><span class="type">"im-module"</span></a> and <a class="link" href="GtkTextView.html" title="GtkTextView"><span class="type">GtkTextView</span></a> <a class="link" href="GtkTextView.html#GtkTextView--im-module" title='The "im-module" property'><span class="type">"im-module"</span></a> 
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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
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 <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext"><span class="type">GtkIMContext</span></a> or <a class="link" href="GtkIMContextSimple.html" title="GtkIMContextSimple"><span class="type">GtkIMContextSimple</span></a> and exports
these four functions:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">
void im_module_init(<a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/GTypeModule.html">GTypeModule</a> *module);
</pre></div>
<p>
This function should register the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/gobject-Type-Information.html#GType"><span class="type">GType</span></a> of the <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext"><span class="type">GtkIMContext</span></a> subclass which
implements the input method by means of <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/GTypeModule.html#g-type-module-register-type"><code class="function">g_type_module_register_type()</code></a>. Note
that <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/gobject-Type-Information.html#g-type-register-static"><code class="function">g_type_register_static()</code></a> cannot be used as the type needs to be
registered dynamically.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">
void im_module_exit(void);
</pre></div>
<p>
Here goes any cleanup code your input method might require on module unload.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">
void im_module_list(const <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html#GtkIMContextInfo" title="struct GtkIMContextInfo">GtkIMContextInfo</a> ***contexts, int *n_contexts)
{
  *contexts = info_list;
  *n_contexts = G_N_ELEMENTS (info_list);
}
</pre></div>
<p>
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 <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html#GtkIMContextInfo" title="struct GtkIMContextInfo"><span class="type">GtkIMContextInfo</span></a> items for each
provided input method.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">
<a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext">GtkIMContext</a> * im_module_create(const <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Basic-Types.html#gchar">gchar</a> *context_id);
</pre></div>
<p>
This function should return a pointer to a newly created instance of the
<a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext"><span class="type">GtkIMContext</span></a> subclass identified by <em class="parameter"><code>context_id</code></em>. The context ID is the same
as specified in the <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html#GtkIMContextInfo" title="struct GtkIMContextInfo"><span class="type">GtkIMContextInfo</span></a> array returned by <code class="function">im_module_list()</code>.
</p>
<p>
After a new loadable input method module has been installed on the system,
the configuration file <code class="filename">gtk.immodules</code> needs to be
regenerated by <a class="link" href="gtk-query-immodules-3.0.html" title="gtk-query-immodules-3.0">gtk-query-immodules-3.0</a>,
in order for the new input method to become available to GTK+ applications.

Retrieves context around the insertion point. Input methods
typically want context in order to constrain input text based on
existing text; this is important for languages such as Thai where
only some sequences of characters are allowed.
</p>
<p>
This function is implemented by emitting the
GtkIMContext::retrieve_surrounding signal on the input method; in
response to this signal, a widget should provide as much context as
is available, up to an entire paragraph, by calling
<a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html#gtk-im-context-set-surrounding" title="gtk_im_context_set_surrounding ()"><code class="function">gtk_im_context_set_surrounding()</code></a>. Note that there is no obligation
for a widget to respond to the ::retrieve_surrounding signal, so input
methods must be prepared to function without context.

<p>
Asks the widget that the input context is attached to to delete
characters around the cursor position by emitting the
GtkIMContext::delete_surrounding signal. Note that <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>n_chars</code></em>
are in characters not in bytes which differs from the usage other
places in <a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html" title="GtkIMContext"><span class="type">GtkIMContext</span></a>.
</p>
<p>
In order to use this function, you should first call
<a class="link" href="GtkIMContext.html#gtk-im-context-get-surrounding" title="gtk_im_context_get_surrounding ()"><code class="function">gtk_im_context_get_surrounding()</code></a> to get the current context, and
call this function immediately afterwards to make sure that you
know what you are deleting. You should also account for the fact
that even if the signal was handled, the input context might not
have deleted all the characters that were requested to be deleted.
</p>
<p>
This function is used by an input method that wants to make
subsitutions in the existing text in response to new input. It is
not useful for applications.
