Description: Reference for Pango.itemize_with_base_dir

### Function

# Pangoitemize_with_base_dir

#### Declaration [src]

    GList*
    pango_itemize_with_base_dir (
      PangoContext* context,
      PangoDirection base_dir,
      const char* text,
      int start_index,
      int length,
      PangoAttrList* attrs,
      PangoAttrIterator* cached_iter
    )

#### Description [src]

Like `pango_itemize()`, but with an explicitly specified base direction.

The base direction is used when computing bidirectional levels. (see `pango_context_set_base_dir()`). `pango_itemize()` gets the base direction from the `PangoContext`.

Available since: | 1.4

#### Parameters

`context` | `PangoContext`
| A structure holding information that affects the itemization process.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`base_dir` | `PangoDirection`
| Base direction to use for bidirectional processing.
`text` | `const char*`
| The text to itemize.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
| The string is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
`start_index` | `int`
| First byte in `text` to process.
`length` | `int`
| The number of bytes (not characters) to process after `start_index`. This must be >= 0.
`attrs` | `PangoAttrList`
| The set of attributes that apply to `text`.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`cached_iter` | `PangoAttrIterator`
| Cached attribute iterator.
| The argument can be `NULL`.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.

#### Return value

Returns: | A list of `PangoItem`
| A `GList` of `PangoItem` structures. The items should be freed using `pango_item_free()` probably in combination with `g_list_free_full()`.
| The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
