Detailed Description

Functions associated with handling Unicode characters.

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ category

Each Unicode character is in exactly one of these categories.

The Unicode standard calls this the "General Category", and uses a "Major, minor" convention to derive a two letter code.

unsigned  ch 
)
inline

◆ get_category()

category Xapian::Unicode::get_category ( unsigned  ch)
inline

Return the category which a given Unicode character falls into.

◆ is_currency()

bool Xapian::Unicode::is_currency ( unsigned  ch)
inline

Test if a given Unicode character is a currency symbol.

◆ nonascii_to_utf8()

unsigned Xapian::Unicode::nonascii_to_utf8 ( unsigned  ch,
char *  buf 
)

Convert a single non-ASCII Unicode character to UTF-8.

This is intended mainly as a helper method for to_utf8().

Parameters
chThe character (which must be > 128) to write to buf.
bufThe buffer to write the character to - it must have space for (at least) 4 bytes.
Returns
The length of the resultant UTF-8 character in bytes.

◆ to_utf8()

unsigned Xapian::Unicode::to_utf8 ( unsigned  ch,
char *  buf 
)
inline

Parameters
chThe character to write to buf.
bufThe buffer to write the character to - it must have space for (at least) 4 bytes.
Returns
The length of the resultant UTF-8 character in bytes.
