TFontStyle();

Description

Default C++ constructor.

TFontStyle(TFontPosture aPost,TFontStrokeWeight aStrWgt,TFontPrintPosition aPrintPos);

Description

Constructs a TFontStyle object with the specified attributes.

Parameters

TBool operator==(const TFontStyle& aFontStyle) const;

Description

Compares a font style for equality.

Parameters

Return value

void ExternalizeL(RWriteStream& aStream) const;

Description

Externalises the font style to a write stream.

The presence of this function means that the standard templated operator<<() (defined in s32strm.h) is available to externalise objects of this class.

Parameters

void InternalizeL(RReadStream& aStream);

Description

Internalises a font style from a read stream.

The presence of this function means that the standard templated operator>>() (defined in s32strm.h) is available to internalise objects of this class.
