/**
 * The <code>LineBreakMeasurer class allows styled text to be
 * broken into lines (or segments) that fit within a particular visual
 * advance.  This is useful for clients who wish to display a paragraph of
 * text that fits within a specific width, called the <b>wrapping
 * width</b>.
 * <p>
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer is constructed with an iterator over
 * styled text.  The iterator's range should be a single paragraph in the
 * text.
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer maintains a position in the text for the
 * start of the next text segment.  Initially, this position is the
 * start of text.  Paragraphs are assigned an overall direction (either
 * left-to-right or right-to-left) according to the bidirectional
 * formatting rules.  All segments obtained from a paragraph have the
 * same direction as the paragraph.
 * <p>
 * Segments of text are obtained by calling the method
 * <code>nextLayout, which returns a {@link TextLayout}
 * representing the text that fits within the wrapping width.
 * The <code>nextLayout method moves the current position
 * to the end of the layout returned from <code>nextLayout.
 * <p>
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer implements the most commonly used
 * line-breaking policy: Every word that fits within the wrapping
 * width is placed on the line. If the first word does not fit, then all
 * of the characters that fit within the wrapping width are placed on the
 * line.  At least one character is placed on each line.
 * <p>
 * The <code>TextLayout instances returned by
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer treat tabs like 0-width spaces.  Clients
 * who wish to obtain tab-delimited segments for positioning should use
 * the overload of <code>nextLayout which takes a limiting offset
 * in the text.
 * The limiting offset should be the first character after the tab.
 * The <code>TextLayout objects returned from this method end
 * at the limit provided (or before, if the text between the current
 * position and the limit won't fit entirely within the  wrapping
 * width).
 * <p>
 * Clients who are laying out tab-delimited text need a slightly
 * different line-breaking policy after the first segment has been
 * placed on a line.  Instead of fitting partial words in the
 * remaining space, they should place words which don't fit in the
 * remaining space entirely on the next line.  This change of policy
 * can be requested in the overload of <code>nextLayout which
 * takes a <code>boolean parameter.  If this parameter is
 * <code>true, nextLayout returns
 * <code>null if the first word won't fit in
 * the given space.  See the tab sample below.
 * <p>
 * In general, if the text used to construct the
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer changes, a new
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer must be constructed to reflect
 * the change.  (The old <code>LineBreakMeasurer continues to
 * function properly, but it won't be aware of the text change.)
 * Nevertheless, if the text change is the insertion or deletion of a
 * single character, an existing <code>LineBreakMeasurer can be
 * 'updated' by calling <code>insertChar or
 * <code>deleteChar. Updating an existing
 * <code>LineBreakMeasurer is much faster than creating a new one.
 * Clients who modify text based on user typing should take advantage
 * of these methods.
 * <p>
 * <strong>Examples:

* Rendering a paragraph in a component * <blockquote> * <pre>{@code * public void paint(Graphics graphics) { * * Point2D pen = new Point2D(10, 20); * Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)graphics; * FontRenderContext frc = g2d.getFontRenderContext(); * * // let styledText be an AttributedCharacterIterator containing at least * // one character * * LineBreakMeasurer measurer = new LineBreakMeasurer(styledText, frc); * float wrappingWidth = getSize().width - 15; * * while (measurer.getPosition() < fStyledText.length()) { * * TextLayout layout = measurer.nextLayout(wrappingWidth); * * pen.y += (layout.getAscent()); * float dx = layout.isLeftToRight() ? * 0 : (wrappingWidth - layout.getAdvance()); * * layout.draw(graphics, pen.x + dx, pen.y); * pen.y += layout.getDescent() + layout.getLeading(); * } * } * }</pre> * </blockquote> * <p> * Rendering text with tabs. For simplicity, the overall text * direction is assumed to be left-to-right * <blockquote> * <pre>{@code * public void paint(Graphics graphics) { * * float leftMargin = 10, rightMargin = 310; * float[] tabStops = { 100, 250 }; * * // assume styledText is an AttributedCharacterIterator, and the number * // of tabs in styledText is tabCount * * int[] tabLocations = new int[tabCount+1]; * * int i = 0; * for (char c = styledText.first(); c != styledText.DONE; c = styledText.next()) { * if (c == '\t') { * tabLocations[i++] = styledText.getIndex(); * } * } * tabLocations[tabCount] = styledText.getEndIndex() - 1; * * // Now tabLocations has an entry for every tab's offset in * // the text. For convenience, the last entry is tabLocations * // is the offset of the last character in the text. * * LineBreakMeasurer measurer = new LineBreakMeasurer(styledText); * int currentTab = 0; * float verticalPos = 20; * * while (measurer.getPosition() < styledText.getEndIndex()) { * * // Lay out and draw each line. All segments on a line * // must be computed before any drawing can occur, since * // we must know the largest ascent on the line. * // TextLayouts are computed and stored in a Vector; * // their horizontal positions are stored in a parallel * // Vector. * * // lineContainsText is true after first segment is drawn * boolean lineContainsText = false; * boolean lineComplete = false; * float maxAscent = 0, maxDescent = 0; * float horizontalPos = leftMargin; * Vector layouts = new Vector(1); * Vector penPositions = new Vector(1); * * while (!lineComplete) { * float wrappingWidth = rightMargin - horizontalPos; * TextLayout layout = * measurer.nextLayout(wrappingWidth, * tabLocations[currentTab]+1, * lineContainsText); * * // layout can be null if lineContainsText is true * if (layout != null) { * layouts.addElement(layout); * penPositions.addElement(new Float(horizontalPos)); * horizontalPos += layout.getAdvance(); * maxAscent = Math.max(maxAscent, layout.getAscent()); * maxDescent = Math.max(maxDescent, * layout.getDescent() + layout.getLeading()); * } else { * lineComplete = true; * } * * lineContainsText = true; * * if (measurer.getPosition() == tabLocations[currentTab]+1) { * currentTab++; * } * * if (measurer.getPosition() == styledText.getEndIndex()) * lineComplete = true; * else if (horizontalPos >= tabStops[tabStops.length-1]) * lineComplete = true; * * if (!lineComplete) { * // move to next tab stop * int j; * for (j=0; horizontalPos >= tabStops[j]; j++) {} * horizontalPos = tabStops[j]; * } * } * * verticalPos += maxAscent; * * Enumeration layoutEnum = layouts.elements(); * Enumeration positionEnum = penPositions.elements(); * * // now iterate through layouts and draw them * while (layoutEnum.hasMoreElements()) { * TextLayout nextLayout = (TextLayout) layoutEnum.nextElement(); * Float nextPosition = (Float) positionEnum.nextElement(); * nextLayout.draw(graphics, nextPosition.floatValue(), verticalPos); * } * * verticalPos += maxDescent; * } * } * }</pre> * </blockquote> * @see TextLayout */ public final class LineBreakMeasurer { private BreakIterator breakIter; private int start; private int pos; private int limit; private TextMeasurer measurer; private CharArrayIterator charIter; /** * Constructs a <code>LineBreakMeasurer for the specified text. * * @param text the text for which this <code>LineBreakMeasurer * produces <code>TextLayout objects; the text must contain * at least one character; if the text available through * <code>iter changes, further calls to this * <code>LineBreakMeasurer instance are undefined (except, * in some cases, when <code>insertChar or * <code>deleteChar are invoked afterward - see below) * @param frc contains information about a graphics device which is * needed to measure the text correctly; * text measurements can vary slightly depending on the * device resolution, and attributes such as antialiasing; this * parameter does not specify a translation between the * <code>LineBreakMeasurer and user space * @see LineBreakMeasurer#insertChar * @see LineBreakMeasurer#deleteChar */ public LineBreakMeasurer(AttributedCharacterIterator text, FontRenderContext frc) { this(text, BreakIterator.getLineInstance(), frc); } /** * Constructs a <code>LineBreakMeasurer for the specified text. * * @param text the text for which this <code>LineBreakMeasurer * produces <code>TextLayout objects; the text must contain * at least one character; if the text available through * <code>iter changes, further calls to this * <code>LineBreakMeasurer instance are undefined (except, * in some cases, when <code>insertChar or * <code>deleteChar are invoked afterward - see below) * @param breakIter the {@link BreakIterator} which defines line * breaks * @param frc contains information about a graphics device which is * needed to measure the text correctly; * text measurements can vary slightly depending on the * device resolution, and attributes such as antialiasing; this * parameter does not specify a translation between the * <code>LineBreakMeasurer and user space * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the text has less than one character * @see LineBreakMeasurer#insertChar * @see LineBreakMeasurer#deleteChar */ public LineBreakMeasurer(AttributedCharacterIterator text, BreakIterator breakIter, FontRenderContext frc) { if (text.getEndIndex() - text.getBeginIndex() < 1) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("Text must contain at least one character."); } this.breakIter = breakIter; this.measurer = new TextMeasurer(text, frc); this.limit = text.getEndIndex(); this.pos = this.start = text.getBeginIndex(); charIter = new CharArrayIterator(measurer.getChars(), this.start); this.breakIter.setText(charIter); } /** * Returns the position at the end of the next layout.
