Methods / Constructors
Method / Constructor		Defined By
	get_sample_string () : String Get a string that is representative of the characters needed to render a particular language. Get a string that is representative of the characters needed to render a particular language. The sample text may be a pangram, but is not necessarily. It is chosen to be demonstrative of normal text in the language, as well as exposing font feature requirements unique to the language. It is suitable for use as sample text in a font selection dialog. If language is NULL, the default language as found by pango_language_get_default() is used. If Pango does not have a sample string for language, the classic "The quick brown fox..." is returned. This can be detected by comparing the returned pointer value to that returned for (non-existent) language code "xx". That is, compare to: pango_language_get_sample_string (pango_language_from_string ("xx")) and should not be freed. Returns: String	Pango.Language
	get_scripts (Object *out_values) : Pango.Script Determines the scripts used to to write language. Determines the scripts used to to write language. If nothing is known about the language tag language, or if language* is NULL, then NULL is returned. The list of scripts returned starts with the script that the language uses most and continues to the one it uses least. The value num_script points at will be set to the number of scripts in the returned array (or zero if NULL is returned). Most languages use only one script for writing, but there are some that use two (Latin and Cyrillic for example), and a few use three (Japanese for example). Applications should not make any assumptions on the maximum number of scripts returned though, except that it is positive if the return value is not NULL, and it is a small number. The pango_language_includes_script() function uses this function internally. number of entries in the array stored in num_scripts, or NULL if Pango does not have any information about this particular language tag (also the case if language is NULL). The returned array is owned by Pango and should not be modified or freed. Parameters: Object out_values Number num_scripts Returns: Pango.Script	Pango.Language
	includes_script (Script *script) : Boolean Determines if script* is one of the scripts used to write language. Determines if script is one of the scripts used to write language. The returned value is conservative; if nothing is known about the language tag language, TRUE will be returned, since, as far as Pango knows, This routine is used in Pango's itemization process when determining if a supplied language tag is relevant to a particular section of text. It probably is not useful for applications in most circumstances. This function uses pango_language_get_scripts() internally. to write language or if nothing is known about language (including the case that language is NULL), FALSE otherwise. Parameters: Pango.Script script Required (not null) Returns: Boolean	Pango.Language
	matches (String *range_list) : Boolean Checks if a language tag matches one of the elements in a list of language ranges. Checks if a language tag matches one of the elements in a list of language ranges. A language tag is considered to match a range in the list if the range is '', the range is exactly the tag, or the range is a prefix of the tag, and the character after it in the tag is '-'. Parameters: String range_list Required (not null) ',', or space characters. Each element must either be '*', or a RFC 3066 language range canonicalized as by pango_language_from_string() Returns: Boolean	Pango.Language
	to_string () : String Gets the RFC-3066 format string representing the given language tag. Gets the RFC-3066 format string representing the given language tag. Pango and should not be freed. Returns: String	Pango.Language
