Cloneable
public final class TextMeasurer extends Object implements Cloneable
TextMeasurer
class provides the primitive operations needed for line break: measuring up to a given advance, determining the advance of a range of characters, and generating a TextLayout
for a range of characters. It also provides methods for incremental editing of paragraphs. A TextMeasurer
object is constructed with an AttributedCharacterIterator
representing a single paragraph of text. The value returned by the getBeginIndex
method of AttributedCharacterIterator
defines the absolute index of the first character. The value returned by the getEndIndex
method of AttributedCharacterIterator
defines the index past the last character. These values define the range of indexes to use in calls to the TextMeasurer
. For example, calls to get the advance of a range of text or the line break of a range of text must use indexes between the beginning and end index values. Calls to insertChar
and deleteChar
reset the TextMeasurer
to use the beginning index and end index of the AttributedCharacterIterator
passed in those calls.
Most clients will use the more convenient LineBreakMeasurer
, which implements the standard line break policy (placing as many words as will fit on each line).

getLineBreakIndex |
Returns the index of the first character which will not fit on on a line beginning at start and possible measuring up to maxAdvance in graphical width. |

Object
x
, the expression: will be true, and that the expression:x.clone() != x
will bex.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
true
, but these are not absolute requirements. While it is typically the case that: will bex.clone().equals(x)
true
, this is not an absolute requirement. By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling super.clone
. If a class and all of its superclasses (except Object
) obey this convention, it will be the case that x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
.
By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence, it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned by super.clone
before returning it. Typically, this means copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure" of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually the case that no fields in the object returned by super.clone
need to be modified.
