TextBuffer.getIterAtLineIndex

bool getIterAtLineIndex(out gtk.text_iter.TextIter iter, int lineNumber, int byteIndex)

Obtains an iterator pointing to byte_index within the given line.

byte_index must be the start of a UTF-8 character. Note bytes, not characters; UTF-8 may encode one character as multiple bytes.

If line_number is greater than or equal to the number of lines in the buffer, the end iterator is returned. And if byte_index is off the end of the line, the iterator at the end of the line is returned.

Parameters

iteriterator to initialize
lineNumberline number counting from 0
byteIndexbyte index from start of line

Returns

whether the exact position has been found
