void	finalize() Is called before the object's memory is being reclaimed by the VM.
final Class<? extends Object>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of Class which represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.

Public Methods

public CharacterStyle getUnderlying ()

Returns "this" for most CharacterStyles, but for CharacterStyles that were generated by wrap(CharacterStyle), returns the underlying CharacterStyle.

public abstract void updateDrawState (TextPaint tp)

public static CharacterStyle wrap (CharacterStyle cs)

A given CharacterStyle can only applied to a single region of a given Spanned. If you need to attach the same CharacterStyle to multiple regions, you can use this method to wrap it with a new object that will have the same effect but be a distinct object so that it can also be attached without conflict.
