Clicking elsewhere, changing focus, or any client reset dropped the
composition in the GTK module and IBus (only XIM ResetIC handed it
back), so typing 안녕 and clicking Send lost 녕. The engine now returns
the pending text — a moved-to candidate first, as Enter would — on
Keyreset and Keyrelease; the GTK module asks for it before closing on
focus-out and commits it, IBus commits it on FocusOut, Reset and a
switch to a password field, and XIM commits it on focus loss and hands
it back on ResetIC without a separate capability probe.
kinit() sets up the XKB extension, after which the server stops sending
core MappingNotify to this client, so the refresh branch never fired and
strans kept its startup keymap; setxkbmap after launch left every XIM
key resolved against the old layout. Select XKB NewKeyboardNotify and
MapNotify (with the map parts, or MapNotify is never delivered) and
rebuild the keymap on those events instead.
XIM text always went out through imdkit's COMPOUND_TEXT converter,
which already wraps every UTF-8 string in ESC%G; the UTF8_STRING
negotiation, the per-client encoding list, ximtext.c's fallback and its
wrapper never changed a byte on the wire. The spot location is honoured
for every style now (GTK's XIM module sends it with PreeditCallbacks)
and an unset focus window means the client window, as the spec says,
so those clients get the popup at the caret. readattrs/place kept four
transient fields to pass values between them; ximclose tore down state
right before die(); the OOM passthrough context was a third policy for
one small calloc where emalloc dies like everything else. Both frontends
now poll for engine-owner loss only while a preedit shows instead of
XIM waking on a pipe the engine had to know about; ibus stops waking
five times a second when idle. keymeaningful() is the engine's own
predicate. The standalone xim_test moved into the unit suite, so
xim/Makefile is gone.
ipc.c: an AF_UNIX nonblocking connect completes at once or fails with
EAGAIN, so the EINPROGRESS/poll/SO_ERROR path and the fcntl juggling
were dead; the deadline plumbing checked a clock that cannot fail and
re-tested the deadline before every transfer although only waitfd
blocks; readfield's truncation and discard loop served the unit test,
since every caller owns char[Ipcfieldmax+1]; NULL-argument checks on
in-tree encoders are gone (peer validation stays). The primary key frame
is Ipckey, not 'legacy'; ipckeysym names the keysym mapping.
srv.c: the per-connection capability and caret already lived in the
persistent Keyreq; the mirror locals and 'negotiated' flag guarded a
protocol rule no client relied on. proccreate never fails in libthread.
gtk: focus-out no longer round-trips a reset before closing the socket
that releases the engine; the caret dedup compares the packed frame;
srvconnect's preedit no-ops and the insimple flag are gone.
The keysym-to-engine-key rule lived in ibus.c, xim/xim.c and gtk/main.c,
and the copies disagreed: GTK sent keypad digits as special keys while
IBus and XIM sent '1'..'9'. Modifiers were rebuilt bit by bit in two
places although Mmask already is the X core layout; only the virtual
Super bit (26) that GDK and IBus set needs folding. ipckey/ipcmod in
ipc.c serve the daemon, the module and the tests.
