Shell.setImeInputMode Question [message #437157]

Hello!

I know that I can specify some IME parameters in the
shell.setImeInputMode(SWT.DBCS);

What I need is in an English Windows environment which has installed
several IME languages (for example Japanese input) to control exactly
which language is active for a SWT text input widget.

I want to change from English language input in one text widget to
Japanese Kanji input in another text widget without the need for the
user to manually change the input language / script.

Is something like this possible with SWT?

Thanks for your efforts!

Tommy

Yes, change the mode when the control gets focus using
Shell.setImeInputMode().

I am using the new forms API and the setimeinput seems not to work.

Here´s what I am doing:

FormToolkit toolkit = new FormToolkit(topComp().getDisplay());
japaneseInput = toolkit.createText(form.getBody(), "");
japaneseInput.addFocusListener(this);

Then in the focus listener:

public void focusGained(FocusEvent evt) {
japaneseInput.getShell().setImeInputMode(SWT.DBCS);
}

This does not seem to work, even when I change to other SWT values like
SWT.ALPHA, etc.

Thanks for any ideas.

Regards,

Thomas

I tried it with Windows XP, English version and Japanese IME installed.

Should I enter a report in bugzilla?

Regards,

Thomas
