  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### LineBreakStatus

          public LineBreakStatus()

      Resets the class to the same state as if new LineBreakStatus() had just been called.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### reset

          public void reset()

      Reset the status. This method will reset the status to the initial state. It is meant for recycling objects.

    - #### nextChar

          public byte nextChar(char c)

      Check whether a line break may happen according to the rules described in the Unicode Line Breaking Algorithm. The function returns the line breaking status of the point before the given character. The algorithm is the table-driven algorithm, as described in Unicode Technical Report #14. The pair table is taken from `LineBreakUtils`. TODO: Better handling for AI, SA, SG and XX line break classes.
      Parameters:
        `c` - the character to check
      Returns:
        the break action to be taken one of: `DIRECT_BREAK`, `INDIRECT_BREAK`, `COMBINING_INDIRECT_BREAK`, `COMBINING_PROHIBITED_BREAK`, `PROHIBITED_BREAK`, `EXPLICIT_BREAK`
