I can feel your frustration, but here's a question I'm sure you can
answer:
The usual way of changing the input context is using "XSetICValues".
For example, if you have create ic in lib/flresource.c as
[I]****************
XPoint location;
location.x = 0;
location.y = 0;
XVaNestedList preedit_list;
preedit_list = XVaCreateNestedList( 0,
XNSpotLocation, &location,
XNFontSet, fontset,
NULL);
fl_context->xic = XCreateIC(fl_context->xim,
XNInputStyle, xim_style,
XNPreeditAttributes, preedit_list,
XNStatusAttributes,status_list,
0);
XFree(preedit_list);
********************
then, the preedit-composition starts at (x=0,y=0). Now, Changing the
above in flresource.c into
[II]*********************
XPoint location;
location.x = 0;
location.y = 0;
XVaNestedList preedit_list;
preedit_list = XVaCreateNestedList( 0,
XNSpotLocation, &location,
XNFontSet, fontset,
NULL);
fl_context->xic = XCreateIC(fl_context->xim,
XNInputStyle, xim_style,
XNPreeditAttributes, preedit_list,
XNStatusAttributes,status_list,
0);
XFree(preedit_list);
location.x = 20;
location.y = 0;
preedit_list = XVaCreateNestedList( 0,
XNSpotLocation, &location,
NULL);
XSetICValues(fl_context->xic,XNPreeditAttributes,preedit_list,0);
XFree(preedit_list);
********************
makes the preedit-composition starts at (x=20,y=0) instead of (x=0,y=0).
Now if I maintain code [I] in flresource.c and put
*************************
location.x = 20;
location.y = 0;
preedit_list = XVaCreateNestedList( 0,
XNSpotLocation, &location,
NULL);
XSetICValues(fl_context->xic,XNPreeditAttributes,preedit_list,0);
XFree(preedit_list);
**************************
into turn_on_local_input in input.c such as
*******************************
static void turn_on_local_input(FL_OBJECT * ob)
{
SPEC *sp = ob->spec;
printf("Turning on CJK local input\n");
sp->CJK_local_input = 1;
if (fl_context->xic)
XDestroyIC(fl_context->xic);
XPoint location;
location.x = 20;
location.y = 0;
XVaNestedList preedit_list;
XVaNestedList status_list;
preedit_list = XVaCreateNestedList( 0,
XNSpotLocation, &location,
// XNFontSet, fontset,
NULL);
XSetICValues(0,XNPreeditAttributes,preedit_list,0);
XFree(preedit_list);
}
*********************************
I should expect the same effect, right? Wrong! No change of xic. That is,
with this input.c, the composition starts at (x=0,y=0) instead of
(x=20,y=0). What goes wrong here? I'm sure you get me right this time.
