InputMethodService.InputMethodImpl

InputMethodService.InputMethodImpl Concrete implementation of AbstractInputMethodService.AbstractInputMethodImpl that provides all of the standard behavior for an input method.

Base class for derived classes to implement their InputMethod interface. This takes care of basic maintenance of the input method, but most behavior must be implemented in a derived class.

Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod

`String`	`SERVICE_INTERFACE` This is the interface name that a service implementing an input method should say that it supports -- that is, this is the action it uses for its intent filter.
`String`	`SERVICE_META_DATA` Name under which an InputMethod service component publishes information about itself.
`int`	`SHOW_EXPLICIT` Flag for `showSoftInput(int, ResultReceiver)`: this show has been explicitly requested by the user.
`int`	`SHOW_FORCED` Flag for `showSoftInput(int, ResultReceiver)`: this show has been forced to happen by the user.

Public methods
`void`	`createSession(InputMethod.SessionCallback callback)` Instantiate a new client session for the input method, by calling back to `AbstractInputMethodService#onCreateInputMethodSessionInterface()`.
`void`	`revokeSession(InputMethodSession session)` Take care of killing an existing session by calling its `AbstractInputMethodSessionImpl#revokeSelf()` method.
`void`	`setSessionEnabled(InputMethodSession session, boolean enabled)` Take care of enabling or disabling an existing session by calling its `AbstractInputMethodSessionImpl#revokeSelf()` method.

Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

From interface


        
          android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod

`abstract void`	`attachToken(IBinder token)` Called first thing after an input method is created, this supplies a unique token for the session it has with the system service.
`abstract void`	`bindInput(InputBinding binding)` Bind a new application environment in to the input method, so that it can later start and stop input processing.
`abstract void`	`changeInputMethodSubtype(InputMethodSubtype subtype)` Notify that the input method subtype is being changed in the same input method.
`abstract void`	`createSession(InputMethod.SessionCallback callback)` Create a new `InputMethodSession` that can be handed to client applications for interacting with the input method.
`abstract void`	`hideSoftInput(int flags, ResultReceiver resultReceiver)` Request that any soft input part of the input method be hidden from the user.
`abstract void`	`restartInput(InputConnection inputConnection, EditorInfo attribute)` This method is called when the state of this input method needs to be reset.
`abstract void`	`revokeSession(InputMethodSession session)` Disable and destroy a session that was previously created with `createSession(android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod.SessionCallback)`.
`abstract void`	`setSessionEnabled(InputMethodSession session, boolean enabled)` Control whether a particular input method session is active.
`abstract void`	`showSoftInput(int flags, ResultReceiver resultReceiver)` Request that any soft input part of the input method be shown to the user.
`abstract void`	`startInput(InputConnection inputConnection, EditorInfo info)` This method is called when the application starts to receive text and it is ready for this input method to process received events and send result text back to the application.
`abstract void`	`unbindInput()` Unbind an application environment, called when the information previously set by `bindInput(InputBinding)` is no longer valid for this input method.

Public methods

createSession

Added in API level 3

public void createSession (InputMethod.SessionCallback callback)

Instantiate a new client session for the input method, by calling back to AbstractInputMethodService#onCreateInputMethodSessionInterface().
This method must be called from the Looper#getMainLooper() of your app.

Parameters
`callback`	`InputMethod.SessionCallback`: Interface that is called with the newly created session.

revokeSession

Added in API level 3

public void revokeSession (InputMethodSession session)

Take care of killing an existing session by calling its AbstractInputMethodSessionImpl#revokeSelf() method.
This method must be called from the Looper#getMainLooper() of your app.

Parameters
`session`	`InputMethodSession`: The `InputMethodSession` previously provided through SessionCallback.sessionCreated() that is to be revoked.

setSessionEnabled

Added in API level 3

public void setSessionEnabled (InputMethodSession session, 
                boolean enabled)

Take care of enabling or disabling an existing session by calling its AbstractInputMethodSessionImpl#revokeSelf() method.
This method must be called from the Looper#getMainLooper() of your app.

Parameters
`session`	`InputMethodSession`: The `InputMethodSession` previously provided through SessionCallback.sessionCreated() that is to be changed.
`enabled`	`boolean`
