XmImMbLookupString(library call)										  XmImMbLookupString(library call)

NAME

       XmImMbLookupString -- An input manager function that retrieves a composed string from an input method

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/XmIm.h>
       int XmImMbLookupString(
       Widget widget,
       XKeyPressedEvent *event,
       char *buffer_return,
       int bytes_buffer,
       KeySym *keysym_return,
       int *status_return);

DESCRIPTION

       XmImMbLookupString  returns a string composed in the locale associated with the widget's input method and a KeySym that is currently mapped
       to the keycode in a KeyPress event. The KeySym is obtained by using the standard interpretation of  Shift,  Lock  and  Group  modifiers	as
       defined in the X Protocol specification.

       An  XIM	will  be created, but an XIC will not be created. One of the functions, XmImSetValues, XmImVaSetValues, or XmImGetXIC, needs to be
       called to create an XIC.

       widget	 Specifies the ID of the widget registered with the input manager

       event	 Specifies the key press event

       buffer_return
		 Specifies the buffer in which the string is returned

       bytes_buffer
		 Specifies the size of the buffer in bytes

       keysym_return
		 Specifies a pointer to the KeySym returned if one exists

       status_return
		 Specifies the status values returned by the function. These status values are the same as those for the XmbLookupString function.
		 The possible status values are:

		 XBufferOverflow
			   The	size of the buffer was insufficient to handle the returned string. The contents of buffer_return and keysym_return
			   are not modified. The required buffer size is returned as a value of the function. The client should  repeat  the  call
			   with a larger buffer size to receive the string.

		 XLookupNone
			   No  consistent  input  was  composed. The contents of buffer_return and keysym_return are not modified and the function
			   returns a value of 0.

		 XLookupChars
			   Some input characters were composed and returned in buffer_return. The content of keysym_return is  not  modified.  The
			   function returns the length of the string in bytes.

		 XLookupKeysym
			   A  keysym value was returned instead of a string. The content of buffer_return is not modified and the function returns
			   a value of 0.

		 XLookupBoth
			   A keysym value and a string were returned. The keysym value may not necessarily correspond to the string returned.  The
			   function returns the length of the string in bytes.

RETURN

       Return values depend on the status returned by the function. Refer to the description of status values above.
