XmbResetIC
NAME
XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC - reset the state of an input con-
text
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.
