Drawing multiline text inside a rectangle

Asked by DJ_AM_Juicebox in Java Programming Language

Tags: java, draw, multiline, drawstring, rectangle

Hi,

Can anyone point out how to draw a really long string into a rectangle such that it auto breaks on words and wraps around? I have a rectangle I want to dump the text into, so I need something like:

public void DrawIntoRect(String str, Rectangle rc)
{
     // Let the string wrap when necessary, breaking between words, using the current font.
     // If there isn't enough space, finish off with a word ellipsis?
     drawString(str, rc);
}

In win32 there are some flags you can use to do this, what is there that we can use in java?Start Free Trial
