German hyphenation file
As already known, the hyphenation library has some problems with patterns who
contain numbers like 7 or 8. I realized that HyphenationTree.unpackValues(int)
extracts the characters ( and ' for these values. They differ by exactly 16
character positions in ASCII table. Following code changes transforms these
characters into the right ones:
protected String unpackValues(int k) {
StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder();
byte v = this.vspace.get(k++);
while (v != 0) {
char c = (char)((v >>> 4) - 1 + '0');
if (!Character.isDigit(c)) {
/* #21219: Bug fixed which sometimes occurs. Just
* shift the ASCII position by a correction offset. */
c += 16;
}
buf.append(c);
c = (char)(v & 0x0f);
if (c == 0) {
break;
}
c = (char)(c - 1 + '0');
if (!Character.isDigit(c)) {
/* #21219: Bug fixed which sometimes occurs. Just
* shift the ASCII position by a correction offset. */
c += 16;
}
buf.append(c);
v = this.vspace.get(k++);
}
return buf.toString();
}
But there's another problem which could be experienced in languages with common
occurences of these two digits in patterns. Please compare the hyphenation
result of the German word, "Flickenteppich", (Pattern: .fli7ck8en7tep7pic8h)
with OpenOffice's result. OpenOffice doesn't generate a hyphenation like
"Flick-enteppich". But FOP does it, even with the cheap bug fix above. There's
an explicit prohibition at this word's position by the concerning pattern.
Other implementations of Liang's algorithm do notice this rule (see
http://www.davidashen.net/texhyphj.html or LibHnj used by OpenOffice).
My question is: Is this issue known? If yes, are there any existing trackers
concerning this bug? When will this be fixed?
Best regards
PAX
