Function: realize the service delivery of application and input method framework, including the binding between application and input method service, application display and hiding request for input method, etc

2. Input method client

Path: /base/miscservices/inputmethod/frameworks/inputmethod_ability

Function: the intermediate bridge between input method framework service and input method delivery, including monitoring the current status of input method, etc

3. Input method service

Path: /base/miscservices/inputmethod/services

Function: as the core of the input method framework, the main processing logic of the input method is completed here
