Detailed Description

Old Unicode normalization API.

This API has been replaced by the Normalizer2 class and is only available for backward compatibility. This class simply delegates to the Normalizer2 class. There is one exception: The new API does not provide a replacement for Normalizer::compare().

The Normalizer class supports the standard normalization forms described in Unicode Standard Annex #15: Unicode Normalization Forms.

The Normalizer class consists of two parts:

The Normalizer class is not suitable for subclassing.

For basic information about normalization forms and details about the C API please see the documentation in unorm.h.

The iterator API with the Normalizer constructors and the non-static functions use a CharacterIterator as input. It is possible to pass a string which is then internally wrapped in a CharacterIterator. The input text is not normalized all at once, but incrementally where needed (providing efficient random access). This allows to pass in a large text but spend only a small amount of time normalizing a small part of that text. However, if the entire text is normalized, then the iterator will be slower than normalizing the entire text at once and iterating over the result. A possible use of the Normalizer iterator is also to report an index into the original text that is close to where the normalized characters come from.

Important: The iterator API was cleaned up significantly for ICU 2.0. The earlier implementation reported the getIndex() inconsistently, and previous() could not be used after setIndex(), next(), first(), and current().

Normalizer allows to start normalizing from anywhere in the input text by calling setIndexOnly(), first(), or last(). Without calling any of these, the iterator will start at the beginning of the text.

At any time, next() returns the next normalized code point (UChar32), with post-increment semantics (like CharacterIterator::next32PostInc()). previous() returns the previous normalized code point (UChar32), with pre-decrement semantics (like CharacterIterator::previous32()).

current() returns the current code point (respectively the one at the newly set index) without moving the getIndex(). Note that if the text at the current position needs to be normalized, then these functions will do that. (This is why current() is not const.) It is more efficient to call setIndexOnly() instead, which does not normalize.

getIndex() always refers to the position in the input text where the normalized code points are returned from. It does not always change with each returned code point. The code point that is returned from any of the functions corresponds to text at or after getIndex(), according to the function's iteration semantics (post-increment or pre-decrement).

next() returns a code point from at or after the getIndex() from before the next() call. After the next() call, the getIndex() might have moved to where the next code point will be returned from (from a next() or current() call). This is semantically equivalent to array access with array[index++] (post-increment semantics).

previous() returns a code point from at or after the getIndex() from after the previous() call. This is semantically equivalent to array access with array[–index] (pre-decrement semantics).

Internally, the Normalizer iterator normalizes a small piece of text starting at the getIndex() and ending at a following "safe" index. The normalized results is stored in an internal string buffer, and the code points are iterated from there. With multiple iteration calls, this is repeated until the next piece of text needs to be normalized, and the getIndex() needs to be moved.

The following "safe" index, the internal buffer, and the secondary iteration index into that buffer are not exposed on the API. This also means that it is currently not practical to return to a particular, arbitrary position in the text because one would need to know, and be able to set, in addition to the getIndex(), at least also the current index into the internal buffer. It is currently only possible to observe when getIndex() changes (with careful consideration of the iteration semantics), at which time the internal index will be 0. For example, if getIndex() is different after next() than before it, then the internal index is 0 and one can return to this getIndex() later with setIndexOnly().

Note: While the setIndex() and getIndex() refer to indices in the underlying Unicode input text, the next() and previous() methods iterate through characters in the normalized output. This means that there is not necessarily a one-to-one correspondence between characters returned by next() and previous() and the indices passed to and returned from setIndex() and getIndex(). It is for this reason that Normalizer does not implement the CharacterIterator interface.

Member Function Documentation

◆ clone()

Normalizer * icu::Normalizer::clone ( ) const

Returns a pointer to a new Normalizer that is a clone of this one.

The caller is responsible for deleting the new clone.

Returns
a pointer to a new Normalizer
Deprecated:
ICU 56 Use Normalizer2 instead.

◆ compare()

int32_t icu::Normalizer::compare ( const UnicodeString s1,
const UnicodeString s2,
uint32_t  options,
UErrorCode errorCode 
)
inlinestatic

Compare two strings for canonical equivalence.

Further options include case-insensitive comparison and code point order (as opposed to code unit order).

Canonical equivalence between two strings is defined as their normalized forms (NFD or NFC) being identical. This function compares strings incrementally instead of normalizing (and optionally case-folding) both strings entirely, improving performance significantly.

Bulk normalization is only necessary if the strings do not fulfill the FCD conditions. Only in this case, and only if the strings are relatively long, is memory allocated temporarily. For FCD strings and short non-FCD strings there is no memory allocation.

Semantically, this is equivalent to strcmp[CodePointOrder](NFD(foldCase(s1)), NFD(foldCase(s2))) where code point order and foldCase are all optional.

UAX 21 2.5 Caseless Matching specifies that for a canonical caseless match the case folding must be performed first, then the normalization.

Parameters
s1First source string.
s2Second source string.
optionsA bit set of options:
  • U_FOLD_CASE_DEFAULT or 0 is used for default options: Case-sensitive comparison in code unit order, and the input strings are quick-checked for FCD.
  • UNORM_INPUT_IS_FCD Set if the caller knows that both s1 and s2 fulfill the FCD conditions. If not set, the function will quickCheck for FCD and normalize if necessary.
  • U_COMPARE_CODE_POINT_ORDER Set to choose code point order instead of code unit order (see u_strCompare for details).
  • U_COMPARE_IGNORE_CASE Set to compare strings case-insensitively using case folding, instead of case-sensitively. If set, then the following case folding options are used.
  • Options as used with case-insensitive comparisons, currently:
  • U_FOLD_CASE_EXCLUDE_SPECIAL_I (see u_strCaseCompare for details)
  • regular normalization options shifted left by UNORM_COMPARE_NORM_OPTIONS_SHIFT
errorCodeICU error code in/out parameter. Must fulfill U_SUCCESS before the function call.

◆ isNormalized() [2/2]

UBool icu::Normalizer::isNormalized ( const UnicodeString src,
UNormalizationMode  mode,
UErrorCode errorCode 
)
inlinestatic

Test if a string is in a given normalization form.

This is semantically equivalent to source.equals(normalize(source, mode)) .

Unlike unorm_quickCheck(), this function returns a definitive result, never a "maybe". For NFD, NFKD, and FCD, both functions work exactly the same. For NFC and NFKC where quickCheck may return "maybe", this function will perform further tests to arrive at a true/false result.

If this is possible, you can test getIndex()<endIndex() before calling next(), or (getIndex()<endIndex() || last()!=DONE) after calling next(). (Calling last() will change the iterator state!)

The C API unorm_next() is more efficient and does not have this ambiguity.

Returns
the next normalized code point
Deprecated:
ICU 56 Use Normalizer2 instead.

If this is possible, you can test (getIndex()>startIndex() || first()!=DONE). (Calling first() will change the iterator state!)

The C API unorm_previous() is more efficient and does not have this ambiguity.

Returns
the previous normalized code point
Deprecated:

inlinestatic

Performing quick check on a string, to quickly determine if the string is in a particular normalization format.

This is a wrapper for unorm_quickCheck(), using a UnicodeString.

Three types of result can be returned UNORM_YES, UNORM_NO or UNORM_MAYBE. Result UNORM_YES indicates that the argument string is in the desired normalized format, UNORM_NO determines that argument string is not in the desired normalized format. A UNORM_MAYBE result indicates that a more thorough check is required, the user may have to put the string in its normalized form and compare the results.

Parameters
sourcestring for determining if it is in a normalized format
modenormalization format
statusA reference to a UErrorCode to receive any errors

Deprecated:
ICU 56 Use Normalizer2 instead.

◆ setIndexOnly()

void icu::Normalizer::setIndexOnly ( int32_t  index)

Note:If the normalization mode is changed while iterating over a string, calls to next() and previous() may return previously buffers characters in the old normalization mode until the iteration is able to re-sync at the next base character. It is safest to call setIndexOnly, reset(), setText, first(), last(), etc. after calling setMode.

Parameters
newModethe new mode for this Normalizer.
