pango_parse_markup ()

gboolean
pango_parse_markup (const char *markup_text,
                    int length,
                    gunichar accel_marker,
                    PangoAttrList **attr_list,
                    char **text,
                    gunichar *accel_char,
                    GError **error);

Parses marked-up text (see

a plain-text string and an attribute list.

If accel_marker is nonzero, the given character will mark the character following it as an accelerator. For example, accel_marker might be an ampersand or underscore. All characters marked as an accelerator will receive a PANGO_UNDERLINE_LOW attribute, and the first character so marked will be returned in accel_char . Two accel_marker characters following each other produce a single literal accel_marker character.

To parse a stream of pango markup incrementally, use pango_markup_parser_new().

If any error happens, none of the output arguments are touched except for error .

pango_markup_parser_new ()

GMarkupParseContext *
pango_markup_parser_new (gunichar accel_marker);

Parses marked-up text (see

a plain-text string and an attribute list.

If accel_marker is nonzero, the given character will mark the character following it as an accelerator. For example, accel_marker might be an ampersand or underscore. All characters marked as an accelerator will receive a PANGO_UNDERLINE_LOW attribute, and the first character so marked will be returned in accel_char , when calling finish(). Two accel_marker characters following each other produce a single literal accel_marker character.

To feed markup to the parser, use g_markup_parse_context_parse() on the returned GMarkupParseContext. When done with feeding markup to the parser, use pango_markup_parser_finish() to get the data out of it, and then use g_markup_parse_context_free() to free it.

This function is designed for applications that read pango markup from streams. To simply parse a string containing pango markup, the simpler pango_parse_markup() API is recommended instead.

pango_markup_parser_finish ()

gboolean
pango_markup_parser_finish (GMarkupParseContext *context,
                            PangoAttrList **attr_list,

                            gunichar *accel_char,
                            GError **error);

After feeding a pango markup parser some data with g_markup_parse_context_parse(), use this function to get the list of pango attributes and text out of the markup. This function will not free context , use g_markup_parse_context_free() to do so.

Since: 1.31.0

pango_color_copy ()

PangoColor *
pango_color_copy (const PangoColor *src);

pango_color_free (PangoColor *color);

Frees a color allocated by pango_color_copy().

pango_color_to_string ()

gchar *
pango_color_to_string (const PangoColor *color);

pango_attr_list_new (void);

Create a new empty attribute list with a reference count of one.

pango_attr_list_ref ()

PangoAttrList *
pango_attr_list_ref (PangoAttrList *list);

Increase the reference count of the given attribute list by one.

Since: 1.10

pango_attr_list_unref ()

void
pango_attr_list_unref (PangoAttrList *list);

Decrease the reference count of the given attribute list by one. If the result is zero, free the attribute list and the attributes it contains.

pango_attr_list_copy ()

PangoAttrList *
pango_attr_list_copy (PangoAttrList *list);

Copy list and return an identical new list.

pango_attr_list_insert ()

void
pango_attr_list_insert (PangoAttrList *list,
                        PangoAttribute *attr);

Insert the given attribute into the PangoAttrList. It will be inserted after all other attributes with a matching start_index .

pango_attr_list_insert_before ()

void
pango_attr_list_insert_before (PangoAttrList *list,
                               PangoAttribute *attr);

Insert the given attribute into the PangoAttrList. It will be inserted before all other attributes with a matching start_index .

pango_attr_list_change ()

void
pango_attr_list_change (PangoAttrList *list,
                        PangoAttribute *attr);

Insert the given attribute into the PangoAttrList. It will replace any attributes of the same type on that segment and be merged with any adjoining attributes that are identical.

This function is slower than pango_attr_list_insert() for creating a attribute list in order (potentially much slower for large lists). However, pango_attr_list_insert() is not suitable for continually changing a set of attributes since it never removes or combines existing attributes.

pango_attr_list_splice ()

void
pango_attr_list_splice (PangoAttrList *list,
                        PangoAttrList *other,
                        gint pos,
                        gint len);

This function opens up a hole in list , fills it in with attributes from the left, and then merges other on top of the hole.

This operation is equivalent to stretching every attribute that applies at position pos in list by an amount len , and then calling pango_attr_list_change() with a copy of each attribute in other in sequence (offset in position by pos ).

This operation proves useful for, for instance, inserting a pre-edit string in the middle of an edit buffer.

pango_attr_list_filter ()

PangoAttrList *
pango_attr_list_filter (PangoAttrList *list,
                        PangoAttrFilterFunc func,
                        gpointer data);

Given a PangoAttrList and callback function, removes any elements of list for which func returns TRUE and inserts them into a new list.

Since: 1.2

pango_attr_iterator_next ()

gboolean
pango_attr_iterator_next (PangoAttrIterator *iterator);

void
pango_attr_iterator_range (PangoAttrIterator *iterator,
                           gint *start,
                           gint *end);

Get the range of the current segment. Note that the stored return values are signed, not unsigned like the values in PangoAttribute. To deal with this API oversight, stored return values that wouldn't fit into a signed integer are clamped to G_MAXINT.

pango_attr_iterator_get ()

PangoAttribute *
pango_attr_iterator_get (PangoAttrIterator *iterator,
                         PangoAttrType type);

Find the current attribute of a particular type at the iterator location. When multiple attributes of the same type overlap, the attribute whose range starts closest to the current location is used.

pango_attr_iterator_get_font ()

void
pango_attr_iterator_get_font (PangoAttrIterator *iterator,
                              PangoFontDescription *desc,
                              PangoLanguage **language,
                              GSList **extra_attrs);

pango_attr_iterator_destroy ()

void
pango_attr_iterator_destroy (PangoAttrIterator *iterator);

Destroy a PangoAttrIterator and free all associated memory.

enum PangoAttrType

The PangoAttrType distinguishes between different types of attributes. Along with the predefined values, it is possible to allocate additional values for custom attributes using pango_attr_type_register(). The predefined values are given below. The type of structure used to store the attribute is listed in parentheses after the description.

struct PangoAttrClass

struct PangoAttrClass {
  PangoAttrType type;
  PangoAttribute * (*copy) (const PangoAttribute *attr);
  void             (*destroy) (PangoAttribute *attr);
  gboolean         (*equal) (const PangoAttribute *attr1, const PangoAttribute *attr2);
};

The PangoAttrClass structure stores the type and operations for a particular type of attribute. The functions in this structure should not be called directly. Instead, one should use the wrapper functions provided for PangoAttribute.

struct PangoAttribute

struct PangoAttribute {
  const PangoAttrClass *klass;
  guint start_index; /* in bytes */
  guint end_index; /* in bytes. The character at this index is not included */
};

The PangoAttribute structure represents the common portions of all attributes. Particular types of attributes include this structure as their initial portion. The common portion of the attribute holds the range to which the value in the type-specific part of the attribute applies and should be initialized using pango_attribute_init(). By default an attribute will have an all-inclusive range of [0,G_MAXUINT].

PANGO_ATTR_INDEX_FROM_TEXT_BEGINNING

#define PANGO_ATTR_INDEX_FROM_TEXT_BEGINNING 0

This value can be used to set the start_index member of a PangoAttribute such that the attribute covers from the beginning of the text.

Since: 1.24

PANGO_ATTR_INDEX_TO_TEXT_END

#define PANGO_ATTR_INDEX_TO_TEXT_END		G_MAXUINT

This value can be used to set the end_index member of a PangoAttribute such that the attribute covers to the end of the text.

Since: 1.24

struct PangoAttrString

struct PangoAttrString {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  char *value;
};

The PangoAttrString structure is used to represent attributes with a string value.

struct PangoAttrLanguage

struct PangoAttrLanguage {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  PangoLanguage *value;
};

The PangoAttrLanguage structure is used to represent attributes that are languages.

struct PangoAttrColor

struct PangoAttrColor {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  PangoColor color;
};

The PangoAttrColor structure is used to represent attributes that are colors.

struct PangoAttrInt

struct PangoAttrInt {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  int value;
};

The PangoAttrInt structure is used to represent attributes with an integer or enumeration value.

struct PangoAttrFloat

struct PangoAttrFloat {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  double value;
};

The PangoAttrFloat structure is used to represent attributes with a float or double value.

struct PangoAttrFontDesc

struct PangoAttrFontDesc {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  PangoFontDescription *desc;
};

The PangoAttrFontDesc structure is used to store an attribute that sets all aspects of the font description at once.

struct PangoAttrShape

struct PangoAttrShape {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  PangoRectangle ink_rect;
  PangoRectangle logical_rect;

  gpointer              data;
  PangoAttrDataCopyFunc copy_func;
  GDestroyNotify        destroy_func;
};

The PangoAttrShape structure is used to represent attributes which impose shape restrictions.

struct PangoAttrSize

struct PangoAttrSize {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  int size;
  guint absolute : 1;
};

The PangoAttrSize structure is used to represent attributes which set font size.

struct PangoAttrFontFeatures

struct PangoAttrFontFeatures {
  PangoAttribute attr;
  gchar *features;
};

The PangoAttrFontFeatures structure is used to represent OpenType font features as an attribute.

Since: 1.38

enum PangoUnderline

The PangoUnderline enumeration is used to specify whether text should be underlined, and if so, the type of underlining.

struct PangoColor

struct PangoColor {
  guint16 red;
  guint16 green;
  guint16 blue;
};

The PangoColor structure is used to represent a color in an uncalibrated RGB color-space.

PANGO_TYPE_COLOR

#define PANGO_TYPE_COLOR pango_color_get_type ()

The GObject type for PangoColor.

PangoAttrList

typedef struct _PangoAttrList PangoAttrList;

The PangoAttrList structure represents a list of attributes that apply to a section of text. The attributes are, in general, allowed to overlap in an arbitrary fashion, however, if the attributes are manipulated only through pango_attr_list_change(), the overlap between properties will meet stricter criteria.

Since the PangoAttrList structure is stored as a linear list, it is not suitable for storing attributes for large amounts of text. In general, you should not use a single PangoAttrList for more than one paragraph of text.

PANGO_TYPE_ATTR_LIST

#define PANGO_TYPE_ATTR_LIST pango_attr_list_get_type ()

The GObject type for PangoAttrList.

PangoAttrIterator

typedef struct _PangoAttrIterator PangoAttrIterator;

The PangoAttrIterator structure is used to represent an iterator through a PangoAttrList. A new iterator is created with pango_attr_list_get_iterator(). Once the iterator is created, it can be advanced through the style changes in the text using pango_attr_iterator_next(). At each style change, the range of the current style segment and the attributes currently in effect can be queried.
