Method Details
-
charToGlyphName
Return the glyphname from a character, eg, charToGlyphName('\\') returns "backslash"- Parameters:
ch
- glyph to evaluate- Returns:
- the name of the glyph
-
getUnicodeSequenceForGlyphName
Returns a String containing the Unicode sequence the given glyph name represents.- Parameters:
glyphName
- the glyph name- Returns:
- the Unicode sequence of the glyph (or null if the glyph name is unknown)
-
glyphToString
Deprecated.User getUnicodeCodePointsForGlyphName instead. This method only returns the first Unicode code point it finds.Return the glyphname from a string, eg, glyphToString("\\") returns "backslash"- Parameters:
name
- glyph to evaluate- Returns:
- the name of the glyph TODO: javadocs for glyphToString and stringToGlyph are confused
-
stringToGlyph
Return the string representation of a glyphname, eg stringToGlyph("backslash") returns "\\"- Parameters:
name
- name of the glyph- Returns:
- the string representation (or an empty String if no match was found)
-
getCharNameAlternativesFor
Returns an array of char names which can serve as alternatives for the given one.- Parameters:
charName
- the character name to search alternatives for- Returns:
- an array of char names or null if no alternatives are available
