IME Escapes
These escapes are used with the ImmEscape function.
| Escape | Description |
|---|---|
| IME_ESC_GET_EUDC_DICTIONARY | Retrieve the path of the EUDC dictionary file. On input, the lpData parameter must be the pointer to the buffer to receive the path. This buffer must be equal to or greater than 80 * sizeof(TCHAR). On return, the buffer contains the null-terminated string specifying the full path of the dictionary. For use by the Chinese EUDC editor only; do not use in other applications. |
| IME_ESC_HANJA_MODE | Convert from Hangul to Hanja. On input, lpData must point to the buffer that contains the Hangul character to convert; on output, it receives the converted Hanja as a null-terminated string. For use by the Korean editor; do not use in other applications. |
| IME_ESC_IME_NAME | Retrieve the name of the IME. On input, the lpData parameter must be the pointer to the buffer to receive the name. On return, the buffer contains the null-terminated string specifying the IME name. For use by the Chinese EUDC editor only; do not use in other applications.Windows Me/98/95: The buffer must be no less than 16*sizeof(TCHAR). Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP: The buffer must be no less than 64 characters. |
| IME_ESC_MAX_KEY | Return value of the function is the maximum number of key stokes for an EUDC character. For use by the Chinese EUDC editor only; do not use in other applications. |
| IME_ESC_QUERY_SUPPORT | Check for implementation. On input, lpData points to the buffer that contains the IME Escape value. The function returns 0 if the escape is not implemented. |
| IME_ESC_SEQUENCE_TO_INTERNAL | Return the character code that matches the specified sequence code. On input, the lpData parameter is the pointer to a 32-bit variable that contains the sequence code. For use by the Chinese EUDC editor only; do not use in other applications. Normally, the Chinese IME will encode its reading character codes into sequence 1 to n. |
| IME_ESC_SET_EUDC_DICTIONARY | Set the EUDC dictionary file. On input, the lpData parameter is the pointer to a null-terminated string specifying the full path. The path should be less than 80 * sizeof(TCHAR). For use by the Chinese EUDC editor only; do not use in other applications. |
| IME_ESC_GETHELPFILENAME | Windows Me/98, Windows 2000, Windows XP: Return the name of the IME's help file. On return the lpData parameter is the full path of the IME's help file. The path should be less than 80 * sizeof(TCHAR). |
The operating system reserves the escapes in the range IME_ESC_RESERVED_FIRST to IME_ESC_RESERVED_LAST for its own use.
The operating system reserves the escapes in the range IME_ESC_PRIVATE_FIRST to IME_ESC_PRIVATE_LAST for private use by IMEs.
