## Detailed Description

C API: 8-bit Unicode handling macros.

This file defines macros to deal with 8-bit Unicode (UTF-8) code units (bytes) and strings.

For more information see utf.h and the ICU User Guide Strings chapter (http://userguide.icu-project.org/strings).

Usage: ICU coding guidelines for if() statements should be followed when using these macros. Compound statements (curly braces {}) must be used for if-else-while... bodies and all macro statements should be terminated with semicolon.

#define U8_APPEND | ( |  | s,
|  |  | i,
|  |  | capacity,
|  |  | c,
|  |  | isError
| ) |  |

Value:
{ \
if((uint32_t)(c)<=0x7f) { \
(s)[(i)++]=(uint8_t)(c); \
} else if((uint32_t)(c)<=0x7ff && (i)+1<(capacity)) { \
(s)[(i)++]=(uint8_t)(((c)>>6)|0xc0); \

(s)[(i)++]=(uint8_t)((((c)>>6)&0x3f)|0x80); \
(s)[(i)++]=(uint8_t)(((c)&0x3f)|0x80); \
} else { \

} \
}
utf8_appendCharSafeBody
int32_t utf8_appendCharSafeBody(uint8_t *s, int32_t i, int32_t length, UChar32 c, UBool *pIsError)
Function for handling "append code point" with error-checking.

Append a code point to a string, overwriting 1 to 4 bytes.

The offset points to the current end of the string contents and is advanced (post-increment). "Safe" macro, checks for a valid code point. If a non-ASCII code point is written, checks for sufficient space in the string. If the code point is not valid or trail bytes do not fit, then isError is set to TRUE.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string buffer
  i | int32_t string offset, must be i<capacity
  capacity | int32_t size of the string buffer
  c | UChar32 code point to append
  isError | output UBool set to TRUE if an error occurs, otherwise not modified

Append a code point to a string, overwriting 1 to 4 bytes.

The offset points to the current end of the string contents and is advanced (post-increment). "Unsafe" macro, assumes a valid code point and sufficient space in the string. Otherwise, the result is undefined.

#define U8_COUNT_TRAIL_BYTES | ( |  | leadByte | ) |

Value:
((uint8_t)(leadByte)<0xf0 ? \
((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xc0)+((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xe0) : \
(uint8_t)(leadByte)<0xfe ? 3+((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xf8)+((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xfc) : 0)

Counts the trail bytes for a UTF-8 lead byte.

Returns 0 for 0..0xbf as well as for 0xfe and 0xff.

This is internal since it is not meant to be called directly by external clients; however it is called by public macros in this file and thus must remain stable.

Note: Beginning with ICU 50, the implementation uses a multi-condition expression which was shown in 2012 (on x86-64) to compile to fast, branch-free code. leadByte is evaluated multiple times.

The pre-ICU 50 implementation used the exported array utf8_countTrailBytes: #define U8_COUNT_TRAIL_BYTES(leadByte) (utf8_countTrailBytes[leadByte]) leadByte was evaluated exactly once.

Parameters

  leadByte | The first byte of a UTF-8 sequence. Must be 0..0xff.

Internal:
  Do not use. This API is for internal use only.

Definition at line 80 of file utf8.h.

#define U8_COUNT_TRAIL_BYTES_UNSAFE | ( |  | leadByte | ) | (((leadByte)>=0xc0)+((leadByte)>=0xe0)+((leadByte)>=0xf0))

Counts the trail bytes for a UTF-8 lead byte of a valid UTF-8 sequence.

The maximum supported lead byte is 0xf4 corresponding to U+10FFFF. leadByte might be evaluated multiple times.

This is internal since it is not meant to be called directly by external clients; however it is called by public macros in this file and thus must remain stable.

Parameters

  leadByte | The first byte of a UTF-8 sequence. Must be 0..0xff.

Internal:
  Do not use. This API is for internal use only.

#define U8_GET | ( |  | s,
|  |  | start,
|  |  | i,
|  |  | length,
|  |  | c
| ) |  |

Value:
{ \
int32_t _u8_get_index=(i); \
U8_SET_CP_START(s, start, _u8_get_index); \
U8_NEXT(s, _u8_get_index, length, c); \
}

Get a code point from a string at a random-access offset, without changing the offset.

The offset may point to either the lead byte or one of the trail bytes for a code point, in which case the macro will read all of the bytes for the code point.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

If the offset points to an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence, then c is set to a negative value. Iteration through a string is more efficient with U8_NEXT_UNSAFE or U8_NEXT.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string
  start | int32_t starting string offset
  i | int32_t string offset, must be start<=i<length
  length | int32_t string length
  c | output UChar32 variable, set to <0 in case of an error

#define U8_GET_OR_FFFD | ( |  | s,
|  |  | start,
|  |  | i,
|  |  | length,
|  |  | c
| ) |  |

Value:
{ \
int32_t _u8_get_index=(i); \
U8_SET_CP_START(s, start, _u8_get_index); \
U8_NEXT_OR_FFFD(s, _u8_get_index, length, c); \
}

Get a code point from a string at a random-access offset, without changing the offset.

The offset may point to either the lead byte or one of the trail bytes for a code point, in which case the macro will read all of the bytes for the code point.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

If the offset points to an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence, then c is set to U+FFFD. Iteration through a string is more efficient with U8_NEXT_UNSAFE or U8_NEXT_OR_FFFD.

This macro does not distinguish between a real U+FFFD in the text and U+FFFD returned for an ill-formed sequence. Use U8_GET() if that distinction is important.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string
  start | int32_t starting string offset
  i | int32_t string offset, must be start<=i<length
  length | int32_t string length
  c | output UChar32 variable, set to U+FFFD in case of an error

U8_SET_CP_START_UNSAFE(s, _u8_get_unsafe_index); \
U8_NEXT_UNSAFE(s, _u8_get_unsafe_index, c); \
}

Get a code point from a string at a random-access offset, without changing the offset.

The offset may point to either the lead byte or one of the trail bytes for a code point, in which case the macro will read all of the bytes for the code point. The result is undefined if the offset points to an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence. Iteration through a string is more efficient with U8_NEXT_UNSAFE or U8_NEXT.

Definition: umachine.h:312

Get a code point from a string at a code point boundary offset, and advance the offset to the next code point boundary.

(Post-incrementing forward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

The offset may point to the lead byte of a multi-byte sequence, in which case the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset points to a trail byte or an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to a negative value.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string
  i | int32_t string offset, must be i<length
  length | int32_t string length
  c | output UChar32 variable, set to <0 in case of an error

(Post-incrementing forward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

The offset may point to the lead byte of a multi-byte sequence, in which case the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset points to a trail byte or an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to U+FFFD.

This macro does not distinguish between a real U+FFFD in the text and U+FFFD returned for an ill-formed sequence. Use U8_NEXT() if that distinction is important.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string
  i | int32_t string offset, must be i<length
  length | int32_t string length

Get a code point from a string at a code point boundary offset, and advance the offset to the next code point boundary.

UChar32 utf8_prevCharSafeBody(const uint8_t *s, int32_t start, int32_t *pi, UChar32 c, UBool strict)
Function for handling "previous code point" with error-checking.

Move the string offset from one code point boundary to the previous one and get the code point between them.

(Pre-decrementing backward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The input offset may be the same as the string length. If the offset is behind a multi-byte sequence, then the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset is behind a lead byte, then that itself will be returned as the code point. If the offset is behind an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to a negative value.

Parameters

  s | const uint8_t * string
  start | int32_t starting string offset (usually 0)
  i | int32_t string offset, must be start<i
