To include a search panel IM in an OS design, you need to include the corresponding Catalog item. The search panels do not include or depend on the functionality of an Input Method Editor (IME). To incorporate an IME that works in conjunction with an IM, you need to include the IME Catalog item in addition to the IM Catalog item.
The following table lists the search panel IMs supported in Windows Embedded CE and their required libraries.
| Input method | Description | DLL | Static library |
|---|---|---|---|
Radical List IM |
Enables character input based on radical search. |
MsRadlist.dll |
MsRadlist.lib Ptv.lib Plv.lib Ptt.lib Ptlv.lib Ddbtn.lib Stub_ce.lib |
Stroke List IM |
Enables character input based on character stroke search. |
MsStrklist.dll |
MsStrklist.lib Ptv.lib Plv.lib Ptt.lib Ptlv.lib Ddbtn.lib Stub_ce.lib |
All Char List IM |
Enables character input based on all-character list (Shift-JIS and Unicode). |
MsAllchar.dll |
MsAllchar.lib Ptv.lib Plv.lib Ptt.lib Ptlv.lib Ddbtn.lib Stub_ce.lib |
To implement a search panel IM in your OS design, you also need to include the Imeskdic module to provide support for the back-end dictionary engine that is attached to the IM.
The following table lists the files that are required to implement a back-end dictionary.
| Executable | Static library | Description |
|---|---|---|
Imeskdic.dll Imeskdic.dic |
Imeskdic.lib |
Supports the back-end user dictionary that is attached to the IM. |
Japanese IM support in the OS includes an HTML Help file that explains to end-users how to use the Japanese IMs. You can include this file or a modified version in the shell of your run-time image.
