RKINITIALIZE(3) 	    Library Functions Manual		 RKINITIALIZE(3)

NAME
     RkInitialize - initialize the kana-kanji conversion functions

SYNOPSIS
     #include <canna/RK.h>
     int RkInitialize(dhdpath)
     char *dhdpath;

DESCRIPTION
     RkInitialize  initiates the kana-kanji conversion functions.  dhdpath names
     the dictionary home directory.

     Because this library permits multiple  kana-kanji	conversions  to  proceed
     concurrently,  it	uses  the conversion context method of control to manage
     the kana-kanji conversions.  Each context contains internal data needed  to
     perform a kana-kanji conversion.

     Users  identify  the  conversion contexts from one another by their context
     number.  A context number is an integer of 0 or greater and is used as  the
     first parameter of the kana-kanji conversion function.

     Right  after  the kana-kanji conversion functions are initialized by RkIni-
     tialize, only the standard context with context number 0 exists.	Applica-
     tions using only one context can use the standard context.

RETURN VALUE
     This function returns 0 if successful; otherwise, it returns -1.
