Korean Input Methods (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

Microsoft® Windows® CE provides the following input methods (IM) for Korean.

IM Description
MSIMK A sample soft keyboard IM that allows input and is closely tied to the Korean IME. The source code is located in %_WINCEROOT%\Public\Wceshellfe\Oak\InputMethods\Korean.
HWXKOR A handwriting recognition engine for supporting user-drawn ideographs and characters. It recognizes both Hangul and Hanja. If used, the OEM must develop a UI.
Mboxkor A sample IM for Korean handwriting input that works with the Korean IME and HWXKOR. It requires Softkb.dll and Hwxkor.dll. The source code is located in %_WINCEROOT%\Public\Common\Sdk\Samples\Mboxkor.

The following code example shows how the IM calls the ImmEscape function to provide the IME with a handle to the IM window.

ImmEscape((HKL)NULL,(HIMC)NULL, IME_ESC_PRIVATE_FIRST+1,
          (LPVOID)&g_hwndMain);

The IM calls the preceding code example after Windows CE initializes the IM. When the IME mode changes, the IME sends a WM_USER+21 message to the IM. The IM uses the WM_USER+21 message to track the mode of the Input Method Manager (IMM) in order to display the appropriate keyboard layout based on the mode.
