* macOS: IME text committed after the marked text is cleared isn't lost (winit#4650)
winit 0.30.13 reports insertText as Ime::Commit only while marked text is
left, and after any commit it swallows the next key. Real paths where that
loses text:
- input methods that end a composition with unmarkText, then insertText
(rust-windowing/winit#3925): the committed text was dropped;
- Apple Korean 2-Set, for the key typed after a syllable: on 한 then 5 it
calls setMarkedText("한"), insertText("한"), setMarkedText(""),
insertText("5"), so the 5 (or ;, or any key that ends the syllable) was
dropped;
- a commit made outside a key press (a candidate clicked with the mouse,
dictation): no key follows to reset the state, so the next key (for
example Backspace) was swallowed.
vendor/winit now commits when a composition was started (pending_commit,
set in setMarkedText, cleared by the commit and when IME is disallowed);
other insertText calls still reach the app as KeyboardInput. A commit
outside keyDown clears the marked text and returns to the ground state.
validAttributesForMarkedText lists the underline and marked-clause
attributes, which some input methods need before they compose.
This is rust-windowing/winit#4650, the 0.30 backport of #4651 (merged on
winit master), plus the part of #4748 that fixes #4651's out-of-key-press
case (#4748's other parts are not included). One correction: upstream
spells the underline attribute "NSUnderlineStyle", but AppKit's
NSUnderlineStyleAttributeName is "NSUnderline" (printed on macOS 14), so
the AppKit value is used.
Checked with the real input methods on macOS 14.7.1 (a scratch winit app fed
key events through AppKit): with the patch 한+5 and 한+; commit the 5 and ;,
unmarkText-then-insertText commits, and Backspace after a commit outside a
key press is delivered; ABC typing, held keys, Japanese (日本, あ), Cangjie
(日) and Korean composition give the same events as before. A test fails if
a re-vendored winit loses the patch.

* macOS: Space in Apple Korean with no syllable in progress types one space (winit#4478)
With Apple Korean 2-Set on macOS 14, Space with no syllable in progress
(a second space, or a space after a digit or punctuation) makes AppKit
call setMarkedText(" "), insertText(" "), then setMarkedText(""). winit
reports the insertText as Ime::Commit(" "), but the trailing empty
setMarkedText returns its state to the ground state, so keyDown also sends
the key as KeyboardInput with text " ". egui inserts both, and PdfCraft's
text fields got two spaces (the double space of alacritty/alacritty#8079).
vendor/winit now records that the key being handled committed IME text and
then doesn't also send it as KeyboardInput, unless AppKit forwards it as a
command through doCommandBySelector (Enter after a syllable still commits
the syllable and sends Enter). keyDown consumes the record on every key,
so keys typed after IME is disallowed are unaffected.
rust-windowing/winit#4478 aims at the same double space, but its changes
(clearing the marked text on commit, forwarding a later insertText, and
dropping doCommandBySelector's guard) don't reach this call order, and the
key loss it also fixes is already fixed by the previous change
(pending_commit). This is the narrow form for the call order observed
here; it should go upstream with #4478.
Checked with the real input methods on macOS 14.7.1 (scratch winit app, on top
of the previous change): the duplicate KeyboardInput Space is gone and
nothing else changes (Korean syllables, 한+Enter, 한+5, Japanese, Cangjie,
ABC, held keys, keys after IME is disallowed). A test fails if a
re-vendored winit loses the patch.

winit - Cross-platform window creation and management in Rust
[dependencies]
winit = "0.30.13"
Documentation
For features within the scope of winit, see FEATURES.md.
For features outside the scope of winit, see Are we GUI Yet? and Are we game yet?, depending on what kind of project you're looking to do.
Contact Us
The maintainers have a meeting every friday at UTC 15. The meeting notes can be found here.
Usage
Winit is a window creation and management library. It can create windows and lets you handle events (for example: the window being resized, a key being pressed, a mouse movement, etc.) produced by the window.
Winit is designed to be a low-level brick in a hierarchy of libraries. Consequently, in order to show something on the window you need to use the platform-specific getters provided by winit, or another library.
CONTRIBUTING
For contributing guidelines see CONTRIBUTING.md.
MSRV Policy
This crate's Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) is 1.70. Changes to the MSRV will be accompanied by a minor version bump.
As a tentative policy, the upper bound of the MSRV is given by the following formula:
min(sid, stable - 3)
Where sid is the current version of rustc provided by Debian Sid, and
stable is the latest stable version of Rust. This bound may be broken in case of a major ecosystem shift or a security vulnerability.
The exception is for the Android platform, where a higher Rust version must be used for certain Android features. In this case, the MSRV will be capped at the latest stable version of Rust minus three. This inconsistency is not reflected in Cargo metadata, as it is not powerful enough to expose this restriction.
All crates in the rust-windowing organizations have the
same MSRV policy.
