  59:  * Provides a context for controlling input methods and keyboard layouts.
  60:  * This class provides the communication layer between the client component,
  61:  * and the various locale-dependent text entry input methods that can be used
  62:  * for the client. By default, there is one instance per Window, shared among
  63:  * all components, but this limits text entry to one component at a time.
  64:  * Thus, text components can create their own instance to allow text entry
  65:  * in multiple components at a time.
  66:  *
  67:  * <p>By using the interfaces of {@link java.awt.im.spi}, you can install
  68:  * extensions which allow additional input methods. Some of these may use
  69:  * platform native input methods, or keyboard layouts provided by the platform.
  70:  * Input methods are unavailable if none have been installed and the platform
  71:  * has no underlying native input methods. Extensions are installed as jar
  72:  * files, usually accessed in the default extension location or specified by
  73:  * the -extdir VM flag. The jar must contain a file named
  74:  * "META_INF/services/java.awt.im.spi.InputMethodDescriptor" which lists,
  75:  * one entry per line in UTF-8 encoding, each class in the jar that implements
  76:  * java.awt.im.spi.InputMethodDescriptor.
