How to use GetTextLinesIterator

[systems01h61704443]

Dear Friends,

   We need to seperate line by line from multiLined Single FrameText. We Found the api GetTextLinesIterator . But it not work properly . Please suggest more about this api.

Perhaps it doesn’t work properly, perhaps you misunderstand the documentation, perhaps it is not suitable for your situation. Please describe the problem you are having in full detail, with a minimal code sample, and expected and actual result.

Thanks for your reply,

     We need to take art bounds of every lines of multilined TextFrame Art.

AIErr result;
ArtMatcher artMatch(1);
artMatch.SetSpec(0, kAnyArt, 0, 0);
artMatch.GetMatchingArt();
ASInt32 lLength, maxLength, ret;
char *buffer = NULL;
short type;
for (int nInd = 0; nInd < artMatch.GetNumMatches(); ++nInd)
{
AIArtHandle art1 = artMatch.GetMatchedArt(nInd);
result = sAIArt->GetArtType(art1, &type);
ATE::TextLinesIteratorRef lineIter = NULL;
ATE::TextFrameRef textRef;
ATE::ATEBool8 bIter ;
ATE::ATEBool8 bLineIter ;
ATE::TextLineRef TextLineRef;
ATETextDOM::Int32 lLength, maxLength;
char *buffer = "";
if (type == kTextFrameArt)
{
result = sAITextFrame->GetATETextFrame(art1, &textRef);
result = sAIText->GetTextLinesIterator(textRef,& lineIter);
result = sAILineIterSuite->IsEmpty(lineIter, &bIter);
if (!bIter)
{
result = sAILineIterSuite->IsNotDone(lineIter, &bLineIter);
while (bLineIter)
{
TextRangeRef textrange;
result = sAILineIterSuite->Item(lineIter, &TextLineRef);
result = sTextLine->GetTextRange(TextLineRef, &textrange);
result = sTextRange->GetSize(textrange, &lLength);
maxLength = lLength * 2;
buffer = (char *)malloc(maxLength * sizeof(char));
memset(buffer, 0, maxLength);
ATETextDOM::Int32 ret = 0;
result = sTextRange->GetContents_AsChar(textrange, buffer, maxLength, &ret);
std::string str(buffer);
ai::UnicodeString strkey = ai::UnicodeString(str, kAIUTF8CharacterEncoding);
sAIUser->MessageAlert(strkey);
result = sAILineIterSuite->Next(lineIter);
result = sAILineIterSuite->IsNotDone(lineIter, &bLineIter);
}
}

}

}

I used this above code for iterating lines in multitexted TextFrame.

Please suggest for any other solution for our problem

Expected and actual result please. In detail with precision. Thank you.

Actual Result :

Illustrator crash on these line

result = sTextLine->GetTextRange(TextLineRef, &textrange);

Expectation:

kindly check the above image, the four lines are Single TextFrame. I need to seperate four inidividual TextFrame. and display through message alert

Refer sample code of sdk: \samplecode\CodeSnippets\SnpTextIterator.cpp

ITextLinesIterator linesIter = textFrame.GetTextLinesIterator();
if (!linesIter.IsEmpty()) {
SnippetRunnerLog::Indent indent3;
ASInt32 lineCount = 0;
while (linesIter.IsNotDone()) {
ITextLine textLine = linesIter.Item();
ITextRange textLineRange = textLine.GetTextRange();
ai::AutoBuffer<ASUnicode> contents(range.GetSize());
textLineRange.GetContents(contents, textLineRange.GetSize());
log->WritePrintf("Text line %d:", lineCount);
SnippetRunnerLog::Indent indent4;
log->Write(ai::UnicodeString(contents, contents.GetCount()));
lineCount++;
linesIter.Next();
}
}
else {
log->Write("No text lines found.");
aisdk::check_ai_error(kBadParameterErr);
}
