CursorAnchorInfo

Kotlin |Java

class CursorAnchorInfo : Parcelable

kotlin.Any
↳	android.view.inputmethod.CursorAnchorInfo

Positional information about the text insertion point and characters in the composition string.

This class encapsulates locations of the text insertion point and the composition string in the screen coordinates so that IMEs can render their UI components near where the text is actually inserted.

Summary

Nested classes
	Builder Builder for CursorAnchorInfo.

Constants
static Int	FLAG_HAS_INVISIBLE_REGION Flag for getInsertionMarkerFlags() and getCharacterBoundsFlags(int): the insertion marker or character bounds have at least one invisible (clipped) region.
static Int	FLAG_HAS_VISIBLE_REGION Flag for getInsertionMarkerFlags() and getCharacterBoundsFlags(int): the insertion marker or character bounds have at least one visible region.
static Int	FLAG_IS_RTL Flag for getInsertionMarkerFlags() and getCharacterBoundsFlags(int): the insertion marker or character bounds is placed at right-to-left (RTL) character.

Inherited constants

From class Parcelable Int CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR Descriptor bit used with describeContents(): indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor. Int PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE Flag for use with writeToParcel: the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "Parcelable someFunction()", "void someFunction(out Parcelable)", or "void someFunction(inout Parcelable)". Some implementations may want to release resources at this point.

Constants

FLAG_HAS_INVISIBLE_REGION

Added in API level 21

static val FLAG_HAS_INVISIBLE_REGION: Int

Flag for getInsertionMarkerFlags() and getCharacterBoundsFlags(int): the insertion marker or character bounds have at least one invisible (clipped) region.

Value: 2

FLAG_HAS_VISIBLE_REGION

Added in API level 21

static val FLAG_HAS_VISIBLE_REGION: Int

Flag for getInsertionMarkerFlags() and getCharacterBoundsFlags(int): the insertion marker or character bounds have at least one visible region.

Value: 1

FLAG_IS_RTL

Value: 4

Public constructors

CursorAnchorInfo

Added in API level 21

CursorAnchorInfo(source: Parcel!)

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 21

fun describeContents(): Int

Return
Int	a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

equals

Added in API level 21

fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

• It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
• It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
• It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
• It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
• For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
obj	This value may be null.

Return
Boolean	true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.
