Text Buffer Utilities

NAME

 LocationOfPosition

SYNOPSIS

#include <textbuff.h>
  ...
extern TextLocation LocationOfPosition(text, position)
TextBuffer ∗ text;
TextPosition position;

DESCRIPTION

The LocationOfPosition function is used to translate a position in the text TextBuffer to a TextLocation.  It returns the translated TextLocation.  If the position is invalid the Buffer pointer buffer is set to NULL and the line and offset members are set the the last valid location in the TextBuffer; otherwise buffer is set to a non-NULL (though useless) value.
