/**
 * The <code>TextHitInfo class represents a character position in a
 * text model, and a <b>bias, or "side," of the character.  Biases are
 * either <EM>leading (the left edge, for a left-to-right character)
 * or <EM>trailing (the right edge, for a left-to-right character).
 * Instances of <code>TextHitInfo are used to specify caret and
 * insertion positions within text.
 * <p>
 * For example, consider the text "abc".  TextHitInfo.trailing(1)
 * corresponds to the right side of the 'b' in the text.
 * <p>
 * <code>TextHitInfo is used primarily by {@link TextLayout} and
 * clients of <code>TextLayout.  Clients of TextLayout
 * query <code>TextHitInfo instances for an insertion offset, where
 * new text is inserted into the text model.  The insertion offset is equal
 * to the character position in the <code>TextHitInfo if the bias
 * is leading, and one character after if the bias is trailing.  The
 * insertion offset for TextHitInfo.trailing(1) is 2.
 * <p>
 * Sometimes it is convenient to construct a <code>TextHitInfo with
 * the same insertion offset as an existing one, but on the opposite
 * character.  The <code>getOtherHit method constructs a new
 * <code>TextHitInfo with the same insertion offset as an existing
 * one, with a hit on the character on the other side of the insertion offset.
 * Calling <code>getOtherHit on trailing(1) would return leading(2).
 * In general, <code>getOtherHit for trailing(n) returns
 * leading(n+1) and <code>getOtherHit for leading(n)
 * returns trailing(n-1).
 * <p>
 * <strong>Example:

* Converting a graphical point to an insertion point within a text * model * <blockquote>

 * TextLayout layout = ...;
 * Point2D.Float hitPoint = ...;
 * TextHitInfo hitInfo = layout.hitTestChar(hitPoint.x, hitPoint.y);
 * int insPoint = hitInfo.getInsertionIndex();
 * // insPoint is relative to layout;  may need to adjust for use
 * // in a text model
 * </pre>
 *
 * @see TextLayout
