immodule for Qt
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* What is this?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
immodule for Qt is a modular, extensible input method subsystem for
|
||
|
|
Qt.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This project brings functionality similar to the immodule for GTK+
|
||
|
|
to the Qt library. The main goal of the project is to extend and
|
||
|
|
enhance the input method support in the Qt library, in order to
|
||
|
|
provide a modern and powerful multi-language input system. Our short
|
||
|
|
term goal is to make Qt (especially Qt/X11) "up-to-date" with other
|
||
|
|
X11-based toolkits such as GTK+. We are also focusing on what the
|
||
|
|
input method API should be for future Qt versions.
|
||

* About this release
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
qt-x11-immodule-unified-qt3.3.3-20040910 is a stable release. Since
|
||
|
|
it breaks backward compatibility (source and binary) about immodule
|
||
|
|
with our previous releases qt-x11-immodule-unified-qt3.3.3-20040819
|
||
|
|
and qt-x11-immodule-bc-qt3.3.2-20040623, optional immodule plugins
|
||
|
|
must be updated to proper version. See 'Optional immodule plugins'
|
||
|
|
section of our download page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http://immodule-qt.freedesktop.org/Software/ImmoduleQtDownload
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, backward compatibility (source and binary) with normal Qt
|
||
|
|
3.3.3 is kept in 'Binary Compatible' mode.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* How to install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After extract the Qt archive, perform following instructions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd qt-x11-free-3.3.3
|
||
|
|
patch -p0 < qt-x11-immodule-unified-qt3.3.3-20040910.diff
|
||
|
|
./make-symlinks.sh
|
||
|
|
./configure
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Our patch provides following two configure options. Choose 'Binary
|
||
|
|
Compatible' for normal use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Build Qt with 'Binary Compatible' immodule support (default)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
configure -inputmethod
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Build Qt without binary compatibility, but supports more advanced
|
||
|
|
immodule extensions. It cannot be used with ordinary application
|
||
|
|
binaries (i.e. the option is for developers)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
configure -inputmethod -inputmethod-ext
|
||
|

||
|
|
See following examples to use the variables.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- set "xim" input method as default
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- set "simple" composing input method as default
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_MODULE=simple
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- set "xim" input method as default, and disable input method
|
||
|
|
selection menu in the context menu
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_SWITCHER=imsw-none
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- set "xim" input method as default, and enable input method
|
||

export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- set "iiimqcf" that has its own input method switching framework as
|
||
|
|
default, and disable input method selection menu in the context
|
||
|
|
menu. Such configuration is required by some system integrators to
|
||
|
|
provide unified user interface for global input method switching
|
||
|
|
over the desktop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_SWITCHER=imsw-none
|
||
