Detailed Description

An iterator which returns Unicode character values from a UTF-8 encoded string.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Utf8Iterator() [1/4]

Xapian::Utf8Iterator::Utf8Iterator ( const char *  p_ )

explicit

Create an iterator given a pointer to a null terminated string.

The iterator will return characters from the start of the string when next called. The string is not copied into the iterator, so it must remain valid while the iteration is in progress.

Parameters

p_	A pointer to the start of the null terminated string to read.

Utf8Iterator() [2/4]

Xapian::Utf8Iterator::Utf8Iterator ( const char *  p_, size_t  len  )

inline

Create an iterator given a pointer and a length.

The iterator will return characters from the start of the string when next called. The string is not copied into the iterator, so it must remain valid while the iteration is in progress.

Parameters

p_	A pointer to the start of the string to read.
len	The length of the string to read.

Utf8Iterator() [3/4]

Xapian::Utf8Iterator::Utf8Iterator ( const std::string &  s )

inline

Create an iterator given a string.

The iterator will return characters from the start of the string when next called. The string is not copied into the iterator, so it must remain valid while the iteration is in progress.

Parameters

s	The string to read. Must not be modified while the iteration is in progress.

Utf8Iterator() [4/4]

Xapian::Utf8Iterator::Utf8Iterator ( )

inline

Create an iterator which is at the end of its iteration.

This can be compared to another iterator to check if the other iterator has reached its end.

Member Function Documentation

assign() [1/2]

void Xapian::Utf8Iterator::assign ( const char *  p_, size_t  len  )

inline

Assign a new string to the iterator.

The iterator will forget the string it was iterating through, and return characters from the start of the new string when next called. The string is not copied into the iterator, so it must remain valid while the iteration is in progress.

Parameters

p_	A pointer to the start of the string to read.
len	The length of the string to read.

assign() [2/2]

void Xapian::Utf8Iterator::assign ( const std::string &  s )

inline

Assign a new string to the iterator.

The iterator will forget the string it was iterating through, and return characters from the start of the new string when next called. The string is not copied into the iterator, so it must remain valid while the iteration is in progress.

Parameters

s	The string to read. Must not be modified while the iteration is in progress.

operator!=()

bool Xapian::Utf8Iterator::operator!= ( const Utf8Iterator &  other ) const

inline

Test two Utf8Iterators for inequality.

Parameters

other

The Utf8Iterator to compare this one with.

Returns

true iff the iterators do not point to the same position.

operator*()

unsigned Xapian::Utf8Iterator::operator*

(

)

const

Get the current Unicode character value pointed to by the iterator.

If an invalid UTF-8 sequence is encountered, then the byte values comprising it are returned until valid UTF-8 or the end of the input is reached.

Returns unsigned(-1) if the iterator has reached the end of its buffer.

operator++() [1/2]

Utf8Iterator & Xapian::Utf8Iterator::operator++ ( )

inline

Move forward to the next Unicode character.

Returns

A reference to this object.

operator++() [2/2]

Utf8Iterator Xapian::Utf8Iterator::operator++ ( int  )

inline

Move forward to the next Unicode character.

Returns

An iterator pointing to the position before the move.

operator==()

bool Xapian::Utf8Iterator::operator== ( const Utf8Iterator &  other ) const

inline

Test two Utf8Iterators for equality.

Parameters

other

The Utf8Iterator to compare this one with.

Returns

true iff the iterators point to the same position.
