HwxALCPriority (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

  • Artigo

1/6/2010

This function is called by an application to specify which alphabet code (ALC) values the handwriting recognition engine returns first.

Syntax

BOOL HwxALCPriority( 
  HRC hrc, 
  ALC alc 
);

Parameters

  • hrc
    [in] Handle to the handwriting recognition context (HRC) object.

  • alc
    [in] Alphabet code (ALC) value that describes the character groupings used by the recognizer to prioritize the results of the recognition analysis. The following table shows the values this parameter takes.

    Value Description

    ALC_WHITE

    Used for a blank or white space.

    ALC_LCALPHA

    Used for the lowercase alphabet, a through z.

    ALC_UCALPHA

    Used for the uppercase alphabet, A through Z.

    ALC_NUMERIC

    Used for the digits 0 through 9.

    ALC_PUNC

    Used for the set of standard punctuation. It is language-dependent.

    ALC_NUMERIC_PUNC

    Used for all non-digit characters in numbers, such as the period and the comma.

    ALC_MATH

    Used for a set of math symbols, such as %, ^, *, (), –, +, {}, <, and /.

    ALC_MONETARY

    Used for punctuation that appears in local monetary expressions.

    ALC_COMMON_SYMBOLS

    Signifies commonly used symbols from ALC_PUNC, ALC_NUMERIC_PUNC, ALC_MATH, and ALC_MONETARY.

    ALC_OTHER

    Signifies other punctuation that is not typically used.

    ALC_ASCII

    Used for the 7-bit ASCII characters — 20 through 7F.

    ALC_HIRAGANA

    Used for Hiragana characters.

    ALC_KATAKANA

    Used for Katakana characters.

    ALC_KANJI_COMMON

    Used for the most commonly used Kanji characters.

    ALC_KANJI_RARE

    Used for the remaining Kanji characters.

    ALC_HANGUL_COMMON

    Signifies the commonly used Hangul characters used in Korea.

    ALC_HANGUL_RARE

    Signifies the remaining Hangul characters used in Korea.

    ALC_OEM

    Specific to recognizers created by OEMs.

    ALC groupings created by combining two or more related ALC basic values are described in the following table.

    ALC_ALPHA

    ALC_LCALPHA | ALC_UCALPHA

Return Value

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure. To get extended error information, call the GetLastError function.

Remarks

The handwriting recognition engine matches user-drawn characters, or ink, to characters contained in ALCs. The engine then returns these possible matches in a list ordered from most likely match to least likely match. When the HwxALCValid function specifies multiple ALCs, an application can use HwxALCPriority to indicate which ALC has priority in the list of possible matches. For example, specifying ALC_SYS_MINIMUM with a call to HwxALCValid means that the handwriting recognition engine uses three ALCs: ALC_ALPHANUMERIC, ALC_PUNC, and ALC_WHITE. If a user draws a lowercase "j" and a call to HwxALCPriority gives ALC_ALPHANUMERIC priority, "j" is likely to return as the best possible match. However, if ALC_PUNC — punctuation symbols — has priority, the semi-colon might be listed before "j" in the list of possible matches.
