IME

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

SUMMARY

This folder includes IME sample source code for Simplified Chinese IMEs, Traditional Chinese IMEs, and a Japanese IME. You can use the IME source code as a reference to develop your own IME for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT®/Windows® 2000.

BUILDING THE SAMPLE

You can use any language version of Windows 2000 to build these samples. If you are using Windows 98 or Windows NT 4.0 as your build environment, please install corresponding language OS to the IME language. For example, please build Japanese IME sample under Japanese Windows 98 or Windows NT 4.0.

Note: In Windows 95 platform DDK, the DDK IME header file is named as IMM.H, which has the same file name as the platform SDK IME header file, but different content. The platform DDK IMM.H includes APIs and data structures, which are not used for application development and so are not included in SDK version IMM.H. With this release, the DDK version IMM.H is changed to IMMDEV.H. If you have old IMEs that need to build under the new DDK, please change your source code to use the new header file name.
