<AWT Dev> [14] RFR JDK-8214578: [macos] Problem with backslashes on macOS/JIS keyboard: Java ignores system settings

[Prasanta Sadhukhan]

I could find 
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/TextFonts/Reference/TextInputSourcesReference/#//apple_ref/c/func/TISGetInputSourceProperty 
which suggested this was a public API

but for some reason the documentation was moved.
