Class Bidi


  • public final class Bidi
    extends Object
    This class implements the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.

    A Bidi object provides information on the bidirectional reordering of the text used to create it. This is required, for example, to properly display Arabic or Hebrew text. These languages are inherently mixed directional, as they order numbers from left-to-right while ordering most other text from right-to-left.

    Once created, a Bidi object can be queried to see if the text it represents is all left-to-right or all right-to-left. Such objects are very lightweight and this text is relatively easy to process.

    If there are multiple runs of text, information about the runs can be accessed by indexing to get the start, limit, and level of a run. The level represents both the direction and the 'nesting level' of a directional run. Odd levels are right-to-left, while even levels are left-to-right. So for example level 0 represents left-to-right text, while level 1 represents right-to-left text, and level 2 represents left-to-right text embedded in a right-to-left run.

      • Bidi

        public Bidi(String paragraph,
            int flags)
        Create Bidi from the given paragraph of text and base direction.
        Parameters:
        paragraph - a paragraph of text
        flags - a collection of flags that control the algorithm. The algorithm understands the flags DIRECTION_LEFT_TO_RIGHT, DIRECTION_RIGHT_TO_LEFT, DIRECTION_DEFAULT_LEFT_TO_RIGHT, and DIRECTION_DEFAULT_RIGHT_TO_LEFT. Other values are reserved.
      • Bidi

        public Bidi(AttributedCharacterIterator paragraph)
        Create Bidi from the given paragraph of text.

        The RUN_DIRECTION attribute in the text, if present, determines the base direction (left-to-right or right-to-left). If not present, the base direction is computes using the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm, defaulting to left-to-right if there are no strong directional characters in the text. This attribute, if present, must be applied to all the text in the paragraph.

        The BIDI_EMBEDDING attribute in the text, if present, represents embedding level information. Negative values from -1 to -62 indicate overrides at the absolute value of the level. Positive values from 1 to 62 indicate embeddings. Where values are zero or not defined, the base embedding level as determined by the base direction is assumed.

        The NUMERIC_SHAPING attribute in the text, if present, converts European digits to other decimal digits before running the bidi algorithm. This attribute, if present, must be applied to all the text in the paragraph.

        Parameters:
        paragraph - a paragraph of text with optional character and paragraph attribute information
        See Also:
        TextAttribute.BIDI_EMBEDDING, TextAttribute.NUMERIC_SHAPING, TextAttribute.RUN_DIRECTION
      • Bidi

            int embStart,
            int paragraphLength,
            int flags)
        Create Bidi from the given text, embedding, and direction information. The embeddings array may be null. If present, the values represent embedding level information. Negative values from -1 to -61 indicate overrides at the absolute value of the level. Positive values from 1 to 61 indicate embeddings. Where values are zero, the base embedding level as determined by the base direction is assumed.
        Parameters:
        text - an array containing the paragraph of text to process.
        textStart - the index into the text array of the start of the paragraph.
        embeddings - an array containing embedding values for each character in the paragraph. This can be null, in which case it is assumed that there is no external embedding information.
        embStart - the index into the embedding array of the start of the paragraph.
        paragraphLength - the length of the paragraph in the text and embeddings arrays.
        flags - a collection of flags that control the algorithm. The algorithm understands the flags DIRECTION_LEFT_TO_RIGHT, DIRECTION_RIGHT_TO_LEFT, DIRECTION_DEFAULT_LEFT_TO_RIGHT, and DIRECTION_DEFAULT_RIGHT_TO_LEFT. Other values are reserved.

        Return true if the specified text requires bidi analysis. If this returns false, the text will display left-to-right. Clients can then avoid constructing a Bidi object. Text in the Arabic Presentation Forms area of Unicode is presumed to already be shaped and ordered for display, and so will not cause this function to return true.
        Parameters:

                           int count)
        Reorder the objects in the array into visual order based on their levels. This is a utility function to use when you have a collection of objects representing runs of text in logical order, each run containing text at a single level.

        levelStart - the start position in the levels array
