In order to be able to type in accented character, some of them with dead keys, I use XmbLookupString function and a unique Input Context. Since my app has several X windows, each time one of them gets input focus, I must set "XNFocusWindow" attribute to it through XSetICValues function, but it doesn't seem to work: If "w" is the X window I want to set as "XNFocusWindow" attribute of the IC, when I reread this attribute through XGetICValues function, I don't obtain the same value: XSetICValues(ic,XNFocusWindow,w,NULL); Window winicfocus; XGetICValues(ic,XNFocusWindow,&winicfocus,NULL); printf ("Window w id : %ld - IC focus window : %ld\n",w,winicfocus); I get: Window w id : 77594625 - IC focus window : 0 To illustrate that, I have joined a little programme you should compile through this command: gcc -g -Wall prog-1.cc -o prog-1 -lX11 <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- Lucien GENTIS UNIVERSITE DE LORRAINE - ESPE Centre de Ressources Informatiques 5, Rue Paul Richard C.O. 3 - MAXEVILLE 54528 LAXOU-CEDEX Tél. 03 72 74 13 28 Email : <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:lucien.gentis@univ-lorraine.fr">lucien.gentis@univ-lorraine.fr</a></pre> </body> </html>
