Hi Alex,

Yes, please assume this line on all utf8 composing patches I submitted to LKML:
But this line already exists in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/3/20/571 :)
Must have missed it.


Your patch will not apply 100% cleanly to 2.6.17-rc3, and in fact it seems like it is not needed anymore (composing works without it again).
Can you confirm that?



Jan Engelhardt
No, I can't.

What they did is to inline the equivalent of the put_8bit() function, minus the call to conv_8bit_to_uni(). So, the result is that the result of the composing operation is still taken from the accent_table, and thus cannot be more than "unsigned char" allows (but is correctly converted to UTF-8). See the definition of struct kbdiacr in include/linux/kd.h. So, the result of such operation can be only in the Latin-1 range of Unicode. This is not acceptable for languages that use dead keys and characters from Latin-2 set.

In short: in UTF-8 mode, it is possible to generate characters from Latin-1 set by composing, and they are generated correctly. It is impossible to generate characters outside of Latin-1 (unlike the situation with my patch).

Both the current situation and my patch share the defect that an accent cannot be put on top of a multibyte character, such as Greek letter alpha.

The updated patch is pasted below. It works and contains the needed functionality (plus Unicode copy-and-paste functionality), but is ideologically wrong (it would be more correct to introduce a new version of struct kbdiacr and new version of kbd). However, it is currently the only known way to generate characters outside of Latin-1 by composing in UTF-8 mode.
