Request for review: 7124223: [macosx] Regression test failure with new exception, when glyph is positioned explicitly (original) (raw)

Hello,

there is a small fix for a regression test failure.

Note that PathGrapics uses a glyph codes as a indexes in an array in order to provide a mapping from glyph codes back to unicode characters. So, it assumes that glyph code is not negative.

However it is not true in case of macosx: if there is no glyph in a font for some character, then macosx font support machinery returns negative unicode char in order to indicate that this char requires a substitution (CoreTextSupport.m, lines 92 - 126).

Suggested fix just ignores negative glyph codes in PathGrapics.

Thanks, Andrew
