Hello IBM would like to propose Unicode Variation Selector[1] capability to AWT and Swing components.
This proposal is changing the following files: src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/CMap.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/CharToGlyphMapper.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/CompositeGlyphMapper.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/Font2D.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/FontRunIterator.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/FontUtilities.java src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/TrueTypeGlyphMapper.java src/java.desktop/share/native/common/font/sunfontids.h src/java.desktop/share/native/libfontmanager/hb-jdk-font.cc src/java.desktop/share/native/libfontmanager/sunFont.c src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/text/DefaultEditorKit.java 542 lines will be changed. There are three parts. 1) Adding CMap format 14 support 2) Adding CharsToGlyphs functions support Variation Selector Sequences 3) Swing text component's DEL and BS key operations change How would I go about obtaining a sponsor?
