Function

HarfBuzz-0.0HarfBuzzbuffer_guess_segment_propertiesSince 0.9.7

  • Sets unset buffer segment properties based on buffer Unicode contents. If buffer is not empty, it must have content type #HB_BUFFER_CONTENT_TYPE_UNICODE.

    If buffer script is not set (ie. is #HB_SCRIPT_INVALID), it will be set to the Unicode script of the first character in the buffer that has a script other than #HB_SCRIPT_COMMON, #HB_SCRIPT_INHERITED, and #HB_SCRIPT_UNKNOWN.

    Next, if buffer direction is not set (ie. is #HB_DIRECTION_INVALID), it will be set to the natural horizontal direction of the buffer script as returned by hb_script_get_horizontal_direction(). If hb_script_get_horizontal_direction() returns #HB_DIRECTION_INVALID, then #HB_DIRECTION_LTR is used.

    Finally, if buffer language is not set (ie. is #HB_LANGUAGE_INVALID), it will be set to the process's default language as returned by hb_language_get_default(). This may change in the future by taking buffer script into consideration when choosing a language. Note that hb_language_get_default() is NOT threadsafe the first time it is called. See documentation for that function for details.
