• filterKeypress

  public boolean filterKeypress(EventKey event)

  Find out whether the input method has handled a keystroke, or whether it needs to be further handled or propegated.

  This is for use in Widget.KeyPressEvent and Widget.KeyReleaseEvent handlers when hooking up an input method to a Widget, where the code will look something like:

   drawing.connect(new Widget.KeyPressEvent() {
       public boolean onKeyPressEvent(Widget source, EventKey event) {
           if (input.filterKeypress(event)) {
               return true;
           }
   
           // or carry on with your logic,
           if (doSomething()) {
               return true;
           }
   
           // otherwise progegate the keystroke up to the default handler
           return false;
       }
   });
   

  You need to do call this for both key presses and releases (at least, for the default input method to work right, anyway).

• setUsePreedit

  public void setUsePreedit(boolean setting)

  How hould the InputMethod provide feedback to the user? The default is true, which is to ask the Widget to display in-line, communicating the preedit string via the signal handlers. Otherwise, the InputMethod can attempt to use some alternative (internal) means.
