NAME

       XmImGetXIM  — An input manager function that retrieves the input method
       associated with a specified widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/XmIm.h>
       XIM XmImGetXIM(
       Widget widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmImGetXIM retrieves the XIM  data  structure  representing  the  input
       method  that  the input manager has opened for the specified widget. If
       an input method has not been opened by a previous call to XmImRegister,
       the  first  time  this routine is called it opens an input method using
       the XmNinputMethod resource for the VendorShell. If the  XmNinputMethod
       is  NULL,  an  input  method is opened using the current locale.  If it
       cannot open an input method, the function returns NULL.

       widget    Specifies the ID  of  a  widget  registered  with  the  input
                 manager

RETURN

       Returns  the  input  method  for the current locale associated with the
       specified  widget’s  input  manager;  otherwise,  returns  NULL.    The
       application  is  responsible  for  freeing  the returned XIM by calling
       XmImCloseXIM.
