Thanks Tom and Vincent for your comments and sorry for late reply :) According to your comments I removed the API, just implemented the default incomplete word breaking and changed names and types as Vincent suggested.. but I think this can conflict with what Tom is planning to implement inside textblock.
So I'll be waiting for Tom's implementation and add what I need there. -- Myungjae 2011/12/12 Tom Hacohen <tom.haco...@partner.samsung.com> > Update: I found some time to finally implement the word breaking > algorithm (excluding dictionary lookups).
