The text input protocol has been made internal thus far, so mutter ships an internal copy.

<interface name="gtk_text_input" version="1">

<description summary="text input">
|
|
The gtk_text_input interface represents text input and input methods
|
|
associated with a seat. It provides enter/leave events to follow the
|
|
text input focus for a seat.
|
|
|
|
Requests are used to enable/disable the text-input object and set
|
|
state information like surrounding and selected text or the content type.
|
|
The information about the entered text is sent to the text-input object
|
|
via the pre-edit and commit_string events. Using this interface removes
|
|
the need for applications to directly process hardware key events and
|
|
compose text out of them.
|
|
|
|
Text is valid UTF-8 encoded, indices and lengths are in bytes. Indices
|
|
have to always point to the first byte of an UTF-8 encoded code point.
|
|
Lengths are not allowed to contain just a part of an UTF-8 encoded code
|
|
point.
|
|
|
|
Focus moving throughout surfaces will result in the emission of
|
|
gtk_text_input.enter and gtk_text_input.leave events. The focused
|
|
surface must perform gtk_text_input.enable and
|
|
gtk_text_input.disable requests as the keyboard focus moves across
|
|
editable and non-editable elements of the UI. Those two requests are not
|
|
expected to be paired with each other, the compositor must be able to
|
|
handle consecutive series of the same request.
|
|
|
|
State is sent by the state requests (set_surrounding_text,
|
|
set_content_type and set_cursor_rectangle) and a commit request.
|
|
After an enter event or disable request all state information is
|
|
invalidated and needs to be resent by the client.
|
|
|
|
This protocol defines requests and events necessary for regular clients
|
|
to communicate with an input method. The gtk_input_method protocol
|
|
defines the interfaces necessary to implement standalone input methods.
|
|
If a compositor implements both interfaces, it will be the arbiter of the
|
|
communication between both.
|
|
|
|
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
|
|
backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
|
|
may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
|
|
Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
|
|
the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
|
|
Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
|
|
version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
|
|
interface version number is reset.
