GlyphItemIter

open class GlyphItemIter : GlyphItemIterProtocol

A PangoGlyphItemIter is an iterator over the clusters in a PangoGlyphItem.

The forward direction of the iterator is the logical direction of text. That is, with increasing start_index and start_char values. If glyph_item is right-to-left (that is, if glyph_item->item->analysis.level is odd), then start_glyph decreases as the iterator moves forward. Moreover, in right-to-left cases, start_glyph is greater than end_glyph.

An iterator should be initialized using either pango_glyph_item_iter_init_start() or pango_glyph_item_iter_init_end(), for forward and backward iteration respectively, and walked over using any desired mixture of pango_glyph_item_iter_next_cluster() and pango_glyph_item_iter_prev_cluster().

A common idiom for doing a forward iteration over the clusters is:

PangoGlyphItemIter cluster_iter;
gboolean have_cluster;

for (have_cluster = pango_glyph_item_iter_init_start (&cluster_iter,
                                                      glyph_item, text);
     have_cluster;
     have_cluster = pango_glyph_item_iter_next_cluster (&cluster_iter))
{
  ...
}

Note that text is the start of the text for layout, which is then indexed by glyph_item->item->offset to get to the text of glyph_item. The start_index and end_index values can directly index into text. The start_glyph, end_glyph, start_char, and end_char values however are zero-based for the glyph_item. For each cluster, the item pointed at by the start variables is included in the cluster while the one pointed at by end variables is not.

None of the members of a PangoGlyphItemIter should be modified manually.

The GlyphItemIter type acts as an owner of an underlying PangoGlyphItemIter instance. It provides the methods that can operate on this data type through GlyphItemIterProtocol conformance. Use GlyphItemIter as a strong reference or owner of a PangoGlyphItemIter instance.

  • ptr
    Untyped pointer to the underlying `PangoGlyphItemIter` instance.
    

    For type-safe access, use the generated, typed pointer glyph_item_iter_ptr property instead.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public let ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!
  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<PangoGlyphItemIter>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Designated initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init(_ op: UnsafePointer<PangoGlyphItemIter>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init!(gpointer op: gpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    gpointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gconstpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init!(gconstpointer op: gconstpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init!(_ op: UnsafePointer<PangoGlyphItemIter>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init!(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<PangoGlyphItemIter>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. PangoGlyphItemIter does not allow reference counting, so despite the name no actual retaining will occur. i.e., ownership is transferred to the GlyphItemIter instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init(retaining op: UnsafeMutablePointer<PangoGlyphItemIter>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements GlyphItemIterProtocol PangoGlyphItemIter does not allow reference counting.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    public init<T>(_ other: T) where T : GlyphItemIterProtocol

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements GlyphItemIterProtocol

  • Unsafe typed initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to GlyphItemIterProtocol.

    public init<T>(cPointer p: UnsafeMutablePointer<T>)

    Parameters

    cPointer
