This message is sent immediately before the IME generates a composition string because of a keystroke. The message is a notification to an IME window to open its composition window. An application should process this message if it displays composition characters itself.
Syntax
WM_IME_STARTCOMPOSITION wParam = 0; lParam = 0; |
Parameters
- wParam
-
Not used.
- lParam
-
Not used.
Return Value
None.
Remarks
If an application has created an IME window, it should pass the WM_IME_STARTCOMPOSITIONmessage to that window. The DefWindowProcfunction processes this message by passing it to the default IME window.
Windows Embedded CE applications cannot create IME windows.
