Specify the translators to be used at creation time.

Parameters:

translators - CharSequenceTranslator array to aggregate

Method Details

translate

public int translate(CharSequence input,
 int index,
 Writer writer)
              throws IOException

The first translator to consume code points from the input is the 'winner'. Execution stops with the number of consumed code points being returned. Translate a set of code points, represented by an int index into a CharSequence, into another set of code points. The number of code points consumed must be returned, and the only IOExceptions thrown must be from interacting with the Writer so that the top level API may reliably ignore StringWriter IOExceptions.

Specified by:

translate in class CharSequenceTranslator

Parameters:

input - CharSequence that is being translated

index - int representing the current point of translation

writer - Writer to translate the text to

Returns:

int count of code points consumed

Throws:

IOException - if and only if the Writer produces an IOException
