XML attributes

android:isDefault

Set to true in all of the configurations for which this input method should be considered an option as the default.

Must be a boolean value, either "true" or "false".

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol isDefault.

android:settingsActivity

Component name of an activity that allows the user to modify the settings for this service.

Must be a string value, using '\\;' to escape characters such as '\\n' or '\\uxxxx' for a unicode character.

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol settingsActivity.

android:supportsSwitchingToNextInputMethod

Set to true if this input method supports ways to switch to a next input method (e.g. a globe key.). When this is true and InputMethodManager#shouldOfferSwitchingToNextInputMethod() returns true, the IME has to offer ways to invoke InputMethodManager#switchToNextInputMethod() accordingly.

Note that the system determines the most appropriate next input method and subtype in order to provide the consistent user experience in switching between IMEs and subtypes.

Must be a boolean value, either "true" or "false".

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol supportsSwitchingToNextInputMethod.

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 3

int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
`int`	a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance.

dump

`pw`	`Printer`
`prefix`	`String`

equals

Added in API level 3

boolean equals (Object o)

Used to test whether the given parameter object is an InputMethodInfo and its Id is the same to this one.

Parameters
`o`	`Object`: the reference object with which to compare.

Returns
`boolean`	true if the given parameter object is an `InputMethodInfo` and its Id is the same to this one.

Added in API level 3

ComponentName getComponent ()

Return the component of the service that implements this input method.

Returns
`ComponentName`

getId

Added in API level 3

String getId ()

Return a unique ID for this input method. The ID is generated from the package and class name implementing the method.

Returns
`String`

getIsDefaultResourceId

Added in API level 3

int getIsDefaultResourceId ()

Return the resource identifier of a resource inside of this input method's .apk that determines whether it should be considered a default input method for the system.

Returns
`int`

getPackageName

Added in API level 3

String getPackageName ()

Return the .apk package that implements this input method.

Returns
`String`

getServiceInfo

String getServiceName ()

Return the class name of the service component that implements this input method.

Returns
`String`

getSettingsActivity

Added in API level 3

String getSettingsActivity ()

Return the class name of an activity that provides a settings UI for the input method. You can launch this activity be starting it with an Intent whose action is MAIN and with an explicit ComponentName composed of getPackageName() and the class name returned here.

A null will be returned if there is no settings activity associated with the input method.

Returns
`String`

getSubtypeAt

Added in API level 11

InputMethodSubtype getSubtypeAt (int index)

Return the Input Method's subtype at the specified index.

Parameters
`index`	`int`: the index of the subtype to return.

Returns
`InputMethodSubtype`

getSubtypeCount

Added in API level 11

int getSubtypeCount ()

Return the count of the subtypes of Input Method.

Returns
`int`

hashCode

Added in API level 3

int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
If two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the Java^TM programming language.)

Returns
`int`	a hash code value for this object.

loadIcon

Added in API level 3

Drawable loadIcon (PackageManager pm)

Load the user-displayed icon for this input method.

Parameters
`pm`	`PackageManager`: Supply a PackageManager used to load the input method's resources.

Returns
`Drawable`

loadLabel

Added in API level 3

CharSequence loadLabel (PackageManager pm)

Load the user-displayed label for this input method.

Parameters
`pm`	`PackageManager`: Supply a PackageManager used to load the input method's resources.

Returns
`CharSequence`

toString

Added in API level 3

String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the toString method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.

The toString method for class Object returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@', and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the value of:

 getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())

Returns
`String`	a string representation of the object.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 3

void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, 
                int flags)

Used to package this object into a Parcel.

Parameters
`dest`	`Parcel`: The `Parcel` to be written.
`flags`	`int`: The flags used for parceling.
