Summary: IM fails when edit box is a child window in a separate process Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-misc AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: ncliang@gmail.com
I have a program which requires for a edit box to be a child window running in a separate process. I also need to be able to input CJK characters. If I have the process running as a popup window (WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE), all is fine. But if I have it as a child window (WS_CHILD), the input from XIM is not shown in the text area. The log file shows that ImmGetCompositionString is always returning 0 even if I have some input in XIM. I am attaching a test program to demonstrate the bug.
