Example - LayoutEditShape

This example shows how to use the LayoutEditShape function to reshape the input characters.

#include <layout.h>

LAYOUT_OBJECT plh;

UCHAR InpBuf[30];
UCHAR OutBuf[30];

ULONG InpSize = 30;
ULONG OutSize = 30 ;
LAYOUT_VALUES layout[2];
LAYOUT_TEXT_DESCRIPTOR Descr;
ULONG index ;
ULONG RC;

   RC= LayoutCreateObject (Locale_Arabic,&plh);      /* or: Locale_Hebrew */
   if (RC) { printf("Create Error! !!\n"); exit(0);}

   /* Define the LayoutValues that will need changing */
   layout[0].name= TypeOfText|Orientation;
   layout[0].value=descr;

   /* using the OR operator, we set the bits in the Layout Descriptor
    * to describe the orientation of the buffer and the Type of Text
    * that we want for the output */

   descr.in=TEXT_VISUAL|ORIENTATION_LTR;
   descr.out=TEXT_VISUAL|ORIENTATION_LTR;
   layout[1].name=0;           /* End of change */

   /* Set the LayoutValues   */
     RC=LayoutSetValues(plh,layout,&index);

     if (RC)
     {
           printf("SetValue Error at index %d !!!\n",index);
           exit(0);
      }


  /* Here we point to the character were we want to shape */
  index = 4L;
   RC=LayoutEditShape(plh,
                      TRUE,
                      &index,
                      InpBuf,
                      &InpSize,
                      OutBuf,
                      &OutSize);

    RC = LayoutDestroyObject(plh);
    if (RC) { printf(" DESTROY Error!!!\n"); exit(0);}
