The JMText interface contains constants and methods used to manipulate JMText objects.

package com.apple.mrj.JManager;

public interface JMText { 

   public static final int

      eUTF8Encoding = 1, 
      eUnicodeEncoding = 2;

   /* @Return the "C" version of the JMTextRef pointer */ 
   public int getTextRef();

   /* @Return the number of characters (not bytes) in */
   /* the text segment */ 
   public int getTextLength() throws JManagerException

   /* Copies the characters to a destination byte array, using */
   /* the specified destination encoding. */
   /* @param encoding the destination encoding */
   /* @buffer the destination buffer */
   /* @bufferOffset the offset in the buffer where data is written */
