Re: [Texmacs-dev] patch: make input methods work in Qt-TeXmacs

[Gubinelli Massimiliano]

Dear Zou,

sorry I forgot: you can use French input method (or Italian) to reproduce the misbehaviour. Actually it is really a known bug of Qt/Mac (both Carbon and Cocoa) which has been fixed in the upcoming 4.7.0. 

As an aside I suggest to use Qt/Carbon 4.7.0 rc1 on the Mac. The Cocoa version has still a bug with Ctrl+Tab not recognized and versions before that have the bug with input methods. I hope they will address the Cocoa version bug soon (I have filed it some times ago).

PS: I committed also a fix for the locate bug.

It works well in my computer. But I don't know how to type `+a+b with input methods. CJK input methods typically send characters other than a-z directly to the editor. Which input method did you use?

Thanks for the details.

I think that a better implementation of inputMethodEvent would be the following:

void

QTMWidget::inputMethodEvent (QInputMethodEvent* event) {

  QString const & commit_string = event->commitString();

  if (!commit_string.isEmpty()) {

    int key = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < commit_string.size(); ++i) {

      QKeyEvent ev(QEvent::KeyPress, key, Qt::NoModifier, commit_string[i]);

      keyPressEvent(&ev);

    }

  }

  event->accept();

}  

Could you be so nice to test if it is OK for you?

Actually I have some problems on my system with inputMethod. If I type `+a+b then I obtain àab and not àb as I expect. In this case the inputMethod handler is activated by the first dead key but apparently spourious keypresses are generated AFTER the inputMethodEvent has been handled and it seems to me a bug with QT (which I cannot reproduce on Linux). If you have a Mac, could you tell me what is the output of the above sequence after you apply your patch to the current TeXmacs?

Best
