NAME
XHPInputJapanese - map keysyms into Japanese characters.
SYNOPSIS
int XHPInputJapanese(display, keysym, modifiers, buffer_return, bytes_buffer, status_in_out)
Display *display;
KeySym *keysym;
unsigned int modifiers;
char *buffer_return;
int bytes_buffer;
XComposeStatus *status_in_out;
DESCRIPTION
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
keysym Specifies the keysym that is to be converted into a Kanji character.
modifiers Specifies the modifiers to be applied to the keysym.
buffer_return Returns the translated characters.
bytes_buffer Specifies the length of the buffer. No more than bytes_buffer of translation are returned.
status_in_out Specifies the XComposeStatus structure.
XHPInputJapanese will convert keysym into a Kanji8 character, if appropriate. It will also handle 16-bit input using NLIO. If the value
pointed to by keysym is used by the NLIO server, that value will be changed to NoSymbol. It will use status_in_out to keep the state
information necessary to control NLIO. This structure must contain null values before this routine is first invoked, and must remain
unchanged between uses.
This routine will also process the control modifier.
XHPInputJapanese will use /usr/llib/X11/xj0input as the NLIO server. The left extend char key will cause the state of NLIO input to be
toggled between invoked and terminated. If the appropriate server is not running it will be started when it is first invoked.
Users of this routine may want to exec the NLIO server previous to it being started up when the invoke key is first struck. This can also
be accomplished using XHPNlioctl.
The keys used to invoke and terminate the NLIO server can also be changed using XHPNlioctl.
This routine is intended to be used in conjunction with XHPConvertLookup
XHPConvertLookup and XHPInputJapanese are provided for backwards compatibility only; these routines will be discontinued in a future
release of HP-UX. Users desiring the same capabilities as those provided by these routines should use XOpenIM, XCreateIC, and
XmbLookupString.
RETURN VALUE
The return value is the length of the string returned in buffer_return.
