* ```to_xml```: Save all values to XML ptree (but does not create a new parent node!).
|

* ```get_all_expressions```: Get a list of all expressions used in any placement. This function is used to collect attributes.
|

* ```process```: Takes a feature and produces formated text as output. The output ```processed_text``` object has to be created by the caller and passed in for thread safety.

# Rendering in harfbuzz branch
|
||||
## Renderer code
|
||||
Delegates all processing to ```text_symbolizer_helper``` to avoid code duplication in individual renderers. Gets a list of glyphs and their positions. Doesn't have to care about i18n in any way.
|
||||
|
||||
Shield symbolizer: Uses ```shield_symbolizer_helper``` and renders shield in addition to text.
|
||||
## text_symbolizer_helper
|
||||
Selects starting points for ```placement_finder```.
|
||||
|
||||
Calls ```placement_finder.next_position``` and then repeatedly ```placement_finder.find_point_placement``` or ```placement_finder.find_line_placements```. If there wasn't a placement for every geometry is calls ```next_position``` again to find alternate positions or styles that work. Repeats this process till either ```next_position``` returns false or no unlabeled points remain.
|
||||
|
||||
Shield symbolizer: Calculates bounding box and disables text along line.
|
||||
|
||||
No i18n required.
