Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TFontSpec()

IMPORT_C

TFontSpec

(

)

Default constructor.

The object's font style is set to the default: EPostureUpright, EStrokeWeightNormal, and EPrintPosNormal.

TFontSpec(const TDesC &, TInt)

IMPORT_C	TFontSpec	(	const TDesC &	aTypefaceName,
			TInt	aHeight
		)

Constructs a TFontSpec object with the specified typeface and height.

The object's font style is set to the default: EPostureUpright, EStrokeWeightNormal, and EPrintPosNormal.

panic: GDI 6, if aTypefaceName is more than KMaxTypefaceNameLength characters long.

Parameters

ExternalizeL(RWriteStream &)

IMPORT_C void

ExternalizeL

(

RWriteStream &

aStream

)

const

Externalises the font specification to a write stream.

The presence of this function means that the standard templated operator<<() (defined in s32strm.h) is available to externalise objects of this class.

leave: KErrNoMemory If the write action causes the stream's resources to be exhausted.

Parameters

RWriteStream & aStream

The stream to which the font specification is to be externalised

InternalizeL(RReadStream &)

IMPORT_C void

InternalizeL

(

RReadStream &

aStream

)

Internalises a font specification from a read stream.

The presence of this function means that the standard templated operator>>() (defined in s32strm.h) is available to internalise objects of this class.

leave: KErrNoMemory If internalisation causes an out of memory error.

Parameters

RReadStream & aStream

The stream from which the font specification is to be internalised.

ScriptTypeForMetrics()

IMPORT_C TInt

ScriptTypeForMetrics

(

)

const

Returns the script with which font metrics calculation will be based on.

SetScriptTypeForMetrics(TLanguage)

IMPORT_C void

SetScriptTypeForMetrics

(

TLanguage

aLanguage

)

Specifies the script with which font metrics calculation will be based on.

Parameters

TLanguage aLanguage

The language used to derive the required script.

operator==(const TFontSpec &)

IMPORT_C TBool

operator==

(

const TFontSpec &

aFontSpec

)

const

Compares this font specification with another.

Parameters

const TFontSpec & aFontSpec

The font specification to be compared with this one.
