 * @stability: Stable
 *
 * An IBusComponent is an executable program.
 * It provides services such as user interface, configuration,
 * and input method engine (IME).
 *
 * It is recommended that IME developers provide
 * a component XML file and
 * load the XML file by ibus_component_new_from_file().
 *
 * The format of a component XML file is described  at
 * <ulink url="http://code.google.com/p/ibus/wiki/DevXML">http://code.google.com/p/ibus/wiki/DevXML</ulink>
