 Name

    XmbResetIC - reset the state of an input context

    ic   Specifies the input context.

 Description

    The XmbResetIC and XwcResetIC functions reset input context to initial
    state.  Any input pending on that context is deleted.  Input method is
    required to clear preedit area, if any, and update status accordingly.
    Calling XmbResetIC or XwcResetIC does not change the focus.

    The return value of XmbResetIC is its current preedit string as a multi-
    byte string.  The return value of XwcResetIC is its current preedit
    string as a wide character string.  It is input method implementation
    dependent whether these routines return a non-NULL string or NULL.

    The client should free the returned string by calling XFree.
