IInputMethod::ReceiveSipInfo (Compact 2013)

3/28/2014

This method is implemented for the IM to receive information about the size, placement, and docked status of the software-based input panel (SIP).

Syntax

HRESULT ReceiveSipInfo( 
  SIPINFO* psi
);

Parameters

• psi
  Pointer to a SIPINFO structure. Because this method only provides information regarding the size, placement and docked status of the SIP, only the rcSipRect member and the SIPF_DOCKED flag, if set, of the fdwFlags member are valid in this SIPINFO structure.

Return Value

Return S_OK to indicate success. Return the appropriate HRESULT value to indicate failure.

Remarks

The SIP calls this method to provide the IM with the current size, placement, and docked status of the SIP. This method is called whenever the user, an application, or the IM changes the SIP state. The IM should respond to these new values by changing its own state. However, it could also ignore these values. For example, a developer can implement an IM that is larger or smaller than the standard size for an IM. These values have either been selected by the user, or have been recommended as expected SIP values for that platform.

The SIP also calls this method during the initialization of the IM, along with Select,, GetInfo, and RegisterCallback.
