Better XIM interaction by filtering modifiers #2000

I have tried this pull and #1999 meson setup --reconfigure -Dimdkit=true --prefix=~/.local/ build
ninja -C buildbut since #1999, these two commands can't build a rofi that support fcitx5 showing |

Do you have any errors it reports? 'it does not build' gives me very little to go on. For me latest git (that includes these patches) builds fine. |
|
aah, I thought it did not build with imdkit enabled. I know to little about this to help, @amosbird do you know? |
|
@xsy420 What key binding do you use to toggle the input method? |
|
when I downgrade xcb-imdkit to 1.0.2 |
|
so it is key-binding conflict? |
|
Modifier-alone key bindings won't work after this PR. However, there should be a way to improve this by allowing such events to pass through. I will look into this further. |
|
maybe try to read [HotKey/TriggerKeys] value in $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/fcitx5/config? |
After diagnosing both the server and client sides of xcb-imdkit, specifically rofi and fcitx5, it has been determined that modifiers are causing the slowdown. This is a follow-up to PR #1999.
A new dependency,
xcb-keysyms, has been added to properly recognize modifier keys.I only performed some basic tests based on my daily workflow, and it worked smoothly. Let's see if this fix can stand the test of time.
