IIMCallback2::SendAlternatives2 (Compact 2013)

  • Article

3/28/2014

This method enables an input method (IM) to send information to an input method editor (IME).

Syntax

HRESULT SendAlternatives2(
  LMDATA* plmd
);

Parameters

  • plmd
    A pointer to a LMDATA structure that contains information that is to be sent from the IM to the IME.

Return Value

An appropriate HRESULT value is returned.

Remarks

An alternatives list is a list of choices provided to the IME for integration into the candidate list. This candidate list then can be presented to the end user to enable the end user to make the best choice.

When the alternatives are sent to the software-based input panel (SIP), they are packaged up and the SIP sends the structure in a WM_SYSCOPYDATA message to the active control with the wParam set to WMSCD_CHAR_RANKED_ALTS. If the active control does not handle the message, the message is forwarded to the IME for processing.

If an application or input method editor (IME) returns TRUE in response to a WM_SYSCOPYDATA message, this method resends the first candidate character.
