abstract member Preceding : int -> int
override this.Preceding : int -> int

Parameters

offset
Int32

The character position to start searching from.

Returns

The position of the last boundary position preceding "offset" (whether of not "offset" itself is a boundary position), or DONE if "offset" is the starting offset of the iterator.

Attributes

Remarks

Sets the iterator's current iteration position to be the last boundary position preceding the specified position. (Whether the specified position is itself a boundary position or not doesn't matter-- this function always moves the iteration position to the last boundary before the specified position.) If the specified position is the starting position, returns DONE.
