Input Method Framework

Introduction

The input method framework is responsible for establishing a communication channel between the application in which the edit box is located and the input method application, to ensure that the two can jointly provide text input, and also enables system applications to manage the input method application.

The input method framework has four modules:

  1. Application

Path: /base/inputmethod/imf/frameworks/native/inputmethod_controller

Function: enables an application to request the use of and interaction with the input method application.

  1. Input method application

Path: /base/inputmethod/imf/frameworks/native/inputmethod_ability

Function: provides an input method application implementation framework. Based on the framework, the input method application can be correctly started, and collaborates with the edit box application to complete text input.

  1. Input method engine

Path: /base/inputmethod/imf/services

Function: responsible for establishing secure and reliable connections with the input method and providing features such as input method switching and query.

  1. Input method JS API implementation

Path: /base/inputmethod/imf/frameworks/js

  • JS API implementation provided for input method applications: /base/inputmethod/imf/frameworks/js/napi/inputmethodability

  • JS API implementation provided for the self-drawing components: /base/inputmethod/imf/frameworks/js/napi/inputmethodclient.

Function: provides specific implementation for TS-related APIs.
