Specifies the input method.
...Specifies the variable length argument list to set XIC values.
The
XCreateIC 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.
XCreateIC
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, XNFilterEvents).
- The argument name is not recognized.
- The input method encountered an input
method implementation-dependent error.
The XCreateIC can generate BadAtom,
BadColor, BadPixmap, and BadWindow errors.
XDestroyIC destroys
the specified input context.
The XIMOfIC function returns the input method
associated with the specified input context.
- BadAtom
- A value
for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.
- BadColor
- A value for
a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
- BadPixmap
- A value
for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
- BadWindow
- A value
for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
