AbstractInputMethodService.AbstractInputMethodImpl

Base class for derived classes to implement their InputMethod interface. This takes care of basic maintenance of the input method, but most behavior must be implemented in a derived class.

Inherited Methods

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals( Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.

From interface android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod

abstract void	attachToken( IBinder token) Called first thing after an input method is created, this supplies a unique token for the session it has with the system service.
abstract void	bindInput( InputBinding binding) Bind a new application environment in to the input method, so that it can later start and stop input processing.
abstract void	changeInputMethodSubtype( InputMethodSubtype subtype) Notify that the input method subtype is being changed in the same input method.
abstract void	createSession( InputMethod.SessionCallback callback) Create a new `InputMethodSession` that can be handed to client applications for interacting with the input method.
abstract void	hideSoftInput(int flags, ResultReceiver resultReceiver) Request that any soft input part of the input method be hidden from the user.
abstract void	restartInput( InputConnection inputConnection, EditorInfo attribute) This method is called when the state of this input method needs to be reset.
abstract void	revokeSession( InputMethodSession session) Disable and destroy a session that was previously created with `createSession(android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod.SessionCallback)`.
abstract void	setSessionEnabled( InputMethodSession session, boolean enabled) Control whether a particular input method session is active.
abstract void	showSoftInput(int flags, ResultReceiver resultReceiver) Request that any soft input part of the input method be shown to the user.
abstract void	startInput( InputConnection inputConnection, EditorInfo info) This method is called when the application starts to receive text and it is ready for this input method to process received events and send result text back to the application.
abstract void	unbindInput() Unbind an application environment, called when the information previously set by `bindInput(InputBinding)` is no longer valid for this input method.
