Method Details- 
dispatchInputMethodEventvoid dispatchInputMethodEvent(int id, AttributedCharacterIterator text, int committedCharacterCount, TextHitInfo caret, TextHitInfo visiblePosition) Creates an input method event from the arguments given and dispatches it to the client component. For arguments, seeInputMethodEvent(java.awt.Component, int, java.awt.font.TextHitInfo, java.awt.font.TextHitInfo).- Parameters:
- id- the event type
- text- the combined committed and composed text
- committedCharacterCount- the number of committed characters in the text
- caret- the caret (a.k.a. insertion point); null if there's no caret within current composed text
- visiblePosition- the position that's most important to be visible; null if there's no recommendation for a visible position within current composed text

createInputMethodWindowCreates a top-level window for use by the input method. The intended behavior of this window is:- it floats above all document windows and dialogs
- it and all components that it contains do not receive the focus
- it has lightweight decorations, such as a reduced drag region without title
 The title may or may not be displayed, depending on the actual type of window created. If attachToInputContext is true, the new window will share the input context that corresponds to this input method context, so that events for components in the window are automatically dispatched to the input method. Also, when the window is opened using setVisible(true), the input context will prevent deactivate and activate calls to the input method that might otherwise be caused. Input methods must call Window.disposeon the returned input method window when it is no longer needed.- Parameters:
- title- the title to be displayed in the window's title bar, if there is such a title bar. A- nullvalue is treated as an empty string, "".
- attachToInputContext- whether this window should share the input context that corresponds to this input method context
- Returns:
- a window with special characteristics for use by input methods
- Throws:
- HeadlessException- if- GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadlessreturns- true

enableClientWindowNotificationEnables or disables notification of the current client window's location and state for the specified input method. When notification is enabled, the input method'snotifyClientWindowChangemethod is called as described in that method's specification. Notification is automatically disabled when the input method is disposed.- Parameters:
- inputMethod- the input method for which notifications are enabled or disabled
- enable- true to enable, false to disable
