Constructor
new unicodeJS.TextString(text)
#
This class provides a simple interface to fetching plain text from a data source. The base class reads data from a string, but an extended class could provide access to a more complex structure, e.g. an array or an HTML document tree.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
