Parameters
hWnd
[in] Handle to the window to be associated with the input context.

[in] Handle to the input method context.
dwFlags
[in] Specifies the type of association between the window and the input method context. This parameter can be the following values:
| Value | Description |
| IACE_CHILDREN | Associate the input method context to the child windows of hWnd only. |
| IACE_DEFAULT | Restore the window’s default input method context. |
| IACE_IGNORENOCONTEXT | Do not associate the input method context with windows that are not associated with any input method context. |
Return Values
TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure.
Remarks
If the application calls this function with IACE_CHILDREN, the system associates the specified input method context with child windows of hWnd. It associates the input method context only with child windows of the thread that created hWnd. Any child window that is created after this function has been called will not be affected. Instead, the default input method context will be associated with it.
If the application calls this function with IACE_DEFAULT, the system restores the window’s default input method context. In this case, the hIMC parameter is ignored.
