Method Detail

getNode

public Node getNode(TypesettingContext typesettingContext,
                    UnicodeChar uc)

Create a new instance for the node. If the character is not defined in the font given then null is returned instead.

Specified by:

getNode in interface NodeFactory

Parameters:

typesettingContext - the typographic context for the node

uc - the Unicode character

Returns:

the new character node

See Also:

NodeFactory.getNode( org.extex.typesetter.tc.TypesettingContext, org.extex.core.UnicodeChar)

getVirtualCharNode

public VirtualCharNode getVirtualCharNode(TypesettingContext typesettingContext,
                                          UnicodeChar uc)

Create a new instance of a virtual character node. If the character is not defined in the font given then null is returned instead.

If the character has some special meaning in Unicode then another node might be returned.

Specified by:

getVirtualCharNode in interface NodeFactory

Parameters:

typesettingContext - the typographic context for the node

uc - the Unicode character

Returns:

the new character node
