Converts raw input stroke data into the input pattern data in the PRCInputPattern type that is used for recognition
First it normalizes and resamples the input stroke data according to the settings specified in param. Resampling will reduce the number of points in the stroke. Based on these points, this function pre-calculates the length, angles, bounding box, and other values used in recognition and store them as input pattern data.
buffer specifies the memory region used internally by inputPattern. Obtain the amount of memory required using PRC_GetInputPatternBufferSize, then allocate at least that amount. Do not free buffer while inputPattern is in use.
maxPointCount and maxStrokeCount determine the maximum numbers of points and strokes, respectively. Resampling will greatly reduce the number of targeted points. This will apply the restrictions specified by maxPointCount and maxStrokeCount to the results of that process and store the results in inputPattern.
For details on normalizing and resampling see PRCInputPatternParam.
PRC_InitInputPattern is equivalent to calling PRC_InitInputPatternEx with param set to NULL.
| pattern | Pointer to the input pattern structure to be created. |
| buffer | Pointer to the memory area that will be used inside pattern. |
| strokes | Raw input stroke data |
| maxPointCount | Maximum point count after processing |
| maxStrokeCount | Maximum stroke count after processing |
| param | Other parameter values that are dependent on the recognition algorithm (use NULL as the default) |
