toString
Returns a string representation of the receiver which is suitable for constructing an equivalent instance using theFontData(String)constructor. -
getHeight
public int getHeight()Returns the height of the receiver in points.- Returns:
- the height of this FontData
- See Also:
-
getName
Returns the name of the receiver.- Returns:
- the name of this

getStyle
public int getStyle()Returns the style of the receiver which is a bitwise OR of one or more of theSWTconstants NORMAL, BOLD and ITALIC.- Returns:
- the style of this
FontData - See Also:
-
getLocale
Returns the locale of the receiver.The locale determines which platform character set this font is going to use. Widgets and graphics operations that use this font will convert UNICODE strings to the platform character set of the specified locale.
On platforms where there are multiple character sets for a given language/country locale, the variant portion of the locale will determine the character set.
- Returns:
- the
Stringrepresenting a Locale object - Since:
- 1.3
-
setHeight
public void setHeight(int height) Sets the height of the receiver. The parameter is specified in terms of points, where a point is one seventy-second of an inch.- Parameters:
height- the height of theFontData- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException-- ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT - if the height is negative
- Since:
- 1.4
- See Also:
-
setName
Sets the name of the receiver.- Parameters:
name- the name of the font data (must not be null)- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException-- ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - when the font name is null
- Since:
- 1.4
- See Also:
-
setStyle
public void setStyle(int style) Sets the style of the receiver to the argument which must be a bitwise OR of one or more of theSWTconstants NORMAL, BOLD and ITALIC. All other style bits are ignored.- Parameters:
style- the new style for thisFontData- Since:
- 1.4
- See Also:
-
setLocale
Sets the locale of the receiver.The locale determines which platform character set this font is going to use. Widgets and graphics operations that use this font will convert UNICODE strings to the platform character set of the specified locale.
On platforms where there are multiple character sets for a given language/country locale, the variant portion of the locale will determine the character set.
- Parameters:
locale- theStringrepresenting a Locale object- Since:
- 1.4

-
equals
Compares the argument to the receiver, and returns true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison. -
hashCode
public int hashCode()Returns an integer hash code for the receiver. Any two objects that returntruewhen passed toequalsmust return the same value for this method.
