<i18n dev> <AWT Dev> Fw: [PATCH] JDK-8213183: InputMethod cannot be used after its restarting

[Toshio 5 Nakamura]

Hello,

Can anyone support this proposal? I appreciate any suggestion or comment.

issue:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8213183
webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tnakamura/8213183/webrev.01/

Fix descriptions:
- XSelectInput() in XMSelection.java may erase existing
  XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback entry. It should keep the current masks.
- All input method data in the linked list should be cleared when
  DestroyXIMCallback() was called.

Best regards,
Toshio Nakamura
