<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QInputContextFactory class creates <a href="qinputcontext.html">QInputContext</a> objects.</p>
<p>The input context factory creates a <a href="qinputcontext.html">QInputContext</a> object for a given key with <a href="qinputcontextfactory.html#create">QInputContextFactory::create</a>().</p>
<p>The input contexts are either built-in or dynamically loaded from an input context plugin (see <a href="qinputcontextplugin.html">QInputContextPlugin</a>).</p>
<p><a href="qinputcontextfactory.html#keys">keys</a>() returns a list of valid keys. The keys are the names used, for example, to identify and specify input methods for the input method switching mechanism. The names have to be consistent with <a href="qinputcontext.html#identifierName">QInputContext::identifierName</a>(), and may only contain ASCII characters.</p>
<p>A key can be used to retrieve the associated input context's supported languages using <a href="qinputcontextfactory.html#languages">languages</a>(). You can retrieve the input context's description using <a href="qinputcontextfactory.html#description">description</a>() and finally you can get a user friendly internationalized name of the <a href="qinputcontext.html">QInputContext</a> object specified by the key using <a href="qinputcontextfactory.html#displayName">displayName</a>().</p>

<p>The languages are expressed as language code (e.g. "zh_CN", "zh_TW", "zh_HK", "ja", "ko", ...).
