Detailed Description

C API: Unicode Properties.

This C API provides low-level access to the Unicode Character Database. In addition to raw property values, some convenience functions calculate derived properties, for example for Java-style programming.

Unicode assigns each code point (not just assigned character) values for many properties. Most of them are simple boolean flags, or constants from a small enumerated list. For some properties, values are strings or other relatively more complex types.

For more information see "About the Unicode Character Database" (http://www.unicode.org/ucd/) and the ICU User Guide chapter on Properties (https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/strings/properties).

Many properties are accessible via generic functions that take a UProperty selector.

Many functions are designed to match java.lang.Character functions. See the individual function documentation, and see the JDK 1.4 java.lang.Character documentation at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html

There are also functions that provide easy migration from C/POSIX functions like isblank(). Their use is generally discouraged because the C/POSIX standards do not define their semantics beyond the ASCII range, which means that different implementations exhibit very different behavior. Instead, Unicode properties should be used directly.

There are also only a few, broad C/POSIX character classes, and they tend to be used for conflicting purposes. For example, the "isalpha()" class is sometimes used to determine word boundaries, while a more sophisticated approach would at least distinguish initial letters from continuation characters (the latter including combining marks). (In ICU, BreakIterator is the most sophisticated API for word boundaries.) Another example: There is no "istitle()" class for titlecase characters.

ICU 3.4 and later provides API access for all twelve C/POSIX character classes. ICU implements them according to the Standard Recommendations in Annex C: Compatibility Properties of UTS #18 Unicode Regular Expressions (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties).

API access for C/POSIX character classes is as follows:

Note: Some of the u_isxyz() functions in uchar.h predate, and do not match, the Standard Recommendations in UTS #18. Instead, they match Java functions according to their API documentation.

The C/POSIX character classes are also available in UnicodeSet patterns, using patterns like [:graph:] or \p{graph}.

Note: There are several ICU whitespace functions. Comparison:

Function Documentation

◆ u_charAge()

U_CAPI void u_charAge ( UChar32  c,
UVersionInfo  versionArray 
)

Get the "age" of the code point.

The "age" is the Unicode version when the code point was first designated (as a non-character or for Private Use) or assigned a character. This can be useful to avoid emitting code points to receiving processes that do not accept newer characters. The data is from the UCD file DerivedAge.txt.

Parameters
cThe code point.
versionArrayThe Unicode version number array, to be filled in.
Stable:
ICU 2.1

◆ u_charDigitValue()

U_CAPI int32_t u_charDigitValue ( UChar32  c)

Returns the decimal digit value of a decimal digit character.

Such characters have the general category "Nd" (decimal digit numbers) and a Numeric_Type of Decimal.

Unlike ICU releases before 2.6, no digit values are returned for any Han characters because Han number characters are often used with a special Chinese-style number format (with characters for powers of 10 in between) instead of in decimal-positional notation. Unicode 4 explicitly assigns Han number characters the Numeric_Type Numeric instead of Decimal. See Jitterbug 1483 for more details.

Use u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_NUMERIC_TYPE) and u_getNumericValue() for complete numeric Unicode properties.

Parameters
cthe code point for which to get the decimal digit value
Returns
the decimal digit value of c, or -1 if c is not a decimal digit character

u_getNumericValue
Stable:
ICU 2.0

Referenced by icu::DecimalFormatSymbols::setSymbol().

◆ u_charDirection()

U_CAPI UCharDirection u_charDirection ( UChar32  c)

Returns the bidirectional category value for the code point, which is used in the Unicode bidirectional algorithm (UAX #9 http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr9/).

Note that some unassigned code points have bidi values of R or AL because they are in blocks that are reserved for Right-To-Left scripts.

Same as java.lang.Character.getDirectionality()

Parameters
cthe code point to be tested
Returns
the bidirectional category (UCharDirection) value
See also
UCharDirection
Stable:
ICU 2.0

◆ u_charFromName()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_charFromName ( UCharNameChoice  nameChoice,
const char *  name,
UErrorCode pErrorCode 
)

Find a Unicode character by its name and return its code point value.

The name is matched exactly and completely. If the name does not correspond to a code point, pErrorCode is set to U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND. A Unicode 1.0 name is matched only if it differs from the modern name. Unicode names are all uppercase. Extended names are lowercase followed by an uppercase hexadecimal number, and within angle brackets.

Parameters
nameChoiceSelector for which name to match.
nameThe name to match.
pErrorCodePointer to a UErrorCode variable
Returns
The Unicode value of the code point with the given name, or an undefined value if there is no such code point.

◆ u_charMirror()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_charMirror ( UChar32  c)

Maps the specified character to a "mirror-image" character.

For characters with the Bidi_Mirrored property, implementations sometimes need a "poor man's" mapping to another Unicode character (code point) such that the default glyph may serve as the mirror-image of the default glyph of the specified character. This is useful for text conversion to and from codepages with visual order, and for displays without glyph selection capabilities.

Parameters
cthe code point to be mapped
Returns
another Unicode code point that may serve as a mirror-image substitute, or c itself if there is no such mapping or c does not have the Bidi_Mirrored property

◆ u_charName()

U_CAPI int32_t u_charName ( UChar32  code,
UCharNameChoice  nameChoice,
char *  buffer,
int32_t  bufferLength,
UErrorCode pErrorCode 
)

Retrieve the name of a Unicode character.

Depending on nameChoice, the character name written into the buffer is the "modern" name or the name that was defined in Unicode version 1.0. The name contains only "invariant" characters like A-Z, 0-9, space, and '-'. Unicode 1.0 names are only retrieved if they are different from the modern names and if the data file contains the data for them. gennames may or may not be called with a command line option to include 1.0 names in unames.dat.

Parameters
codeThe character (code point) for which to get the name. It must be 0<=code<=0x10ffff.
nameChoiceSelector for which name to get.
bufferDestination address for copying the name. The name will always be zero-terminated. If there is no name, then the buffer will be set to the empty string.
bufferLength==sizeof(buffer)
pErrorCodePointer to a UErrorCode variable; check for U_SUCCESS() after u_charName() returns.
Returns
The length of the name, or 0 if there is no name for this character. If the bufferLength is less than or equal to the length, then the buffer contains the truncated name and the returned length indicates the full length of the name. The length does not include the zero-termination.

◆ u_digit()

U_CAPI int32_t u_digit ( UChar32  ch,
int8_t  radix 
)

Returns the decimal digit value of the code point in the specified radix.

If the radix is not in the range 2<=radix<=36 or if the value of c is not a valid digit in the specified radix, -1 is returned. A character is a valid digit if at least one of the following is true:

  • The character has a decimal digit value. Such characters have the general category "Nd" (decimal digit numbers) and a Numeric_Type of Decimal. In this case the value is the character's decimal digit value.
  • The character is one of the uppercase Latin letters 'A' through 'Z'. In this case the value is c-'A'+10.
  • The character is one of the lowercase Latin letters 'a' through 'z'. In this case the value is ch-'a'+10.
  • Latin letters from both the ASCII range (0061..007A, 0041..005A) as well as from the Fullwidth ASCII range (FF41..FF5A, FF21..FF3A) are recognized.

Same as java.lang.Character.digit().

Parameters
chthe code point to be tested.
radixthe radix.
Returns
the numeric value represented by the character in the specified radix, or -1 if there is no value or if the value exceeds the radix.

UCharNameChoice  nameChoice,
UErrorCode pErrorCode 
)

Enumerate all assigned Unicode characters between the start and limit code points (start inclusive, limit exclusive) and call a function for each, passing the code point value and the character name.

For Unicode 1.0 names, only those are enumerated that differ from the modern names.

Parameters
startThe first code point in the enumeration range.
limitOne more than the last code point in the enumeration range (the first one after the range).
fnThe function that is to be called for each character name.
contextAn arbitrary pointer that is passed to the function.

◆ u_enumCharTypes()

U_CAPI void u_enumCharTypes ( UCharEnumTypeRange enumRange,
const void *  context 
)

Enumerate efficiently all code points with their Unicode general categories.

This is useful for building data structures (e.g., UnicodeSet's), for enumerating all assigned code points (type!=U_UNASSIGNED), etc.

For each contiguous range of code points with a given general category ("character type"), the UCharEnumTypeRange function is called. Adjacent ranges have different types. The Unicode Standard guarantees that the numeric value of the type is 0..31.

Parameters

◆ u_foldCase()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_foldCase ( UChar32  c,
uint32_t  options 
)

The given character is mapped to its case folding equivalent according to UnicodeData.txt and CaseFolding.txt; if the character has no case folding equivalent, the character itself is returned.

This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. Full case mappings should be used whenever possible because they produce better results by working on whole strings. They take into account the string context and the language and can map to a result string with a different length as appropriate. Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. See also the User Guide chapter on C/POSIX migration: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu/posix#case-mappings

Parameters
cthe code point to be mapped
optionsEither U_FOLD_CASE_DEFAULT or U_FOLD_CASE_EXCLUDE_SPECIAL_I
Returns
the Simple_Case_Folding of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself.
Stable:

◆ u_forDigit()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_forDigit ( int32_t  digit,
int8_t  radix 
)

Determines the character representation for a specific digit in the specified radix.

If the value of radix is not a valid radix, or the value of digit is not a valid digit in the specified radix, the null character (U+0000) is returned.

The radix argument is valid if it is greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 36. The digit argument is valid if 0 <= digit < radix.

If the digit is less than 10, then '0' + digit is returned. Otherwise, the value 'a' + digit - 10 is returned.

Same as java.lang.Character.forDigit().

Parameters
digitthe number to convert to a character.

Returns an immutable UCPMap for an enumerated/catalog/int-valued property.

The library retains ownership over the returned object. Sets an error code if the property number is not one for an "int property".

The returned object maps all Unicode code points to their values for that property. For documentation of the integer values see u_getIntPropertyValue().

Parameters
propertyUCHAR_INT_START..UCHAR_INT_LIMIT-1
pErrorCodean in/out ICU UErrorCode
Returns
the property as a map

◆ u_getIntPropertyValue()

U_CAPI int32_t u_getIntPropertyValue ( UChar32  c,
UProperty  which 
)

Get the property value for an enumerated or integer Unicode property for a code point.

Also returns binary and mask property values.

Unicode, especially in version 3.2, defines many more properties than the original set in UnicodeData.txt.

The properties APIs are intended to reflect Unicode properties as defined in the Unicode Character Database (UCD) and Unicode Technical Reports (UTR). For details about the properties see http://www.unicode.org/ . For names of Unicode properties see the UCD file PropertyAliases.txt.

Sample usage: UEastAsianWidth ea=(UEastAsianWidth)u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_EAST_ASIAN_WIDTH); UBool b=(UBool)u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_IDEOGRAPHIC);

Parameters
cCode point to test.
whichUProperty selector constant, identifies which property to check. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT or UCHAR_INT_START<=which<UCHAR_INT_LIMIT or UCHAR_MASK_START<=which<UCHAR_MASK_LIMIT.
Returns
Numeric value that is directly the property value or, for enumerated properties, corresponds to the numeric value of the enumerated constant of the respective property value enumeration type (cast to enum type if necessary). Returns 0 or 1 (for false/true) for binary Unicode properties. Returns a bit-mask for mask properties. Returns 0 if 'which' is out of bounds or if the Unicode version does not have data for the property at all, or not for this code point.

int32_t  destCapacity,
UErrorCode pErrorCode 
)

Returns an empty string.

Used to return the ISO 10646 comment for a character. The Unicode ISO_Comment property is deprecated and has no values.

Parameters
cThe character (code point) for which to get the ISO comment. It must be 0<=c<=0x10ffff.
destDestination address for copying the comment. The comment will be zero-terminated if possible. If there is no comment, then the buffer will be set to the empty string.
destCapacity==sizeof(dest)
pErrorCodePointer to a UErrorCode variable; check for U_SUCCESS() after u_getISOComment() returns.
Returns

◆ u_getNumericValue()

U_CAPI double u_getNumericValue ( UChar32  c)

Get the numeric value for a Unicode code point as defined in the Unicode Character Database.

A "double" return type is necessary because some numeric values are fractions, negative, or too large for int32_t.

For characters without any numeric values in the Unicode Character Database, this function will return U_NO_NUMERIC_VALUE. Note: This is different from the Unicode Standard which specifies NaN as the default value. (NaN is not available on all platforms.)

Similar to java.lang.Character.getNumericValue(), but u_getNumericValue() also supports negative values, large values, and fractions, while Java's getNumericValue() returns values 10..35 for ASCII letters.

Parameters
cCode point to get the numeric value for.
Returns
Numeric value of c, or U_NO_NUMERIC_VALUE if none is defined.

In addition, this function maps the synthetic names "gcm" / "General_Category_Mask" to the property UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK. These names are not in PropertyAliases.txt.

Parameters
aliasthe property name to be matched. The name is compared using "loose matching" as described in PropertyAliases.txt.
Returns
a UProperty enum, or UCHAR_INVALID_CODE if the given name does not match any property.

)

Return the Unicode name for a given property, as given in the Unicode database file PropertyAliases.txt.

In addition, this function maps the property UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK to the synthetic names "gcm" / "General_Category_Mask". These names are not in PropertyAliases.txt.

Parameters
propertyUProperty selector other than UCHAR_INVALID_CODE. If out of range, NULL is returned.
nameChoiceselector for which name to get. If out of range, NULL is returned. All properties have a long name. Most have a short name, but some do not. Unicode allows for additional names; if present these will be returned by U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME + i, where i=1, 2,...
Returns
a pointer to the name, or NULL if either the property or the nameChoice is out of range. If a given nameChoice returns NULL, then all larger values of nameChoice will return NULL, with one exception: if NULL is returned for U_SHORT_PROPERTY_NAME, then U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME (and higher) may still return a non-NULL value. The returned pointer is valid until u_cleanup() is called.

U_CAPI UBool u_isWhitespace ( UChar32  c)

Determines if the specified code point is a whitespace character according to Java/ICU.

A character is considered to be a Java whitespace character if and only if it satisfies one of the following criteria:

  • It is a Unicode Separator character (categories "Z" = "Zs" or "Zl" or "Zp"), but is not also a non-breaking space (U+00A0 NBSP or U+2007 Figure Space or U+202F Narrow NBSP).
  • It is U+0009 HORIZONTAL TABULATION.
  • It is U+000A LINE FEED.
  • It is U+000B VERTICAL TABULATION.
  • It is U+000C FORM FEED.
  • It is U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN.
  • It is U+001C FILE SEPARATOR.
  • It is U+001D GROUP SEPARATOR.
  • It is U+001E RECORD SEPARATOR.
  • It is U+001F UNIT SEPARATOR.

This API tries to sync with the semantics of Java's java.lang.Character.isWhitespace(), but it may not return the exact same results because of the Unicode version difference.

Note: Unicode 4.0.1 changed U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE from a Space Separator (Zs) to a Format Control (Cf). Since then, isWhitespace(0x200b) returns false. See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.0.1/

Note: There are several ICU whitespace functions; please see the uchar.h file documentation for a detailed comparison.

Parameters
cthe code point to be tested
Returns
true if the code point is a whitespace character according to Java/ICU

◆ u_isxdigit()

U_CAPI UBool u_isxdigit ( UChar32  c)

Determines whether the specified code point is a hexadecimal digit.

This is equivalent to u_digit(c, 16)>=0. True for characters with general category "Nd" (decimal digit numbers) as well as Latin letters a-f and A-F in both ASCII and Fullwidth ASCII. (That is, for letters with code points 0041..0046, 0061..0066, FF21..FF26, FF41..FF46.)

In order to narrow the definition of hexadecimal digits to only ASCII characters, use (c<=0x7f && u_isxdigit(c)).

This is a C/POSIX migration function. See the comments about C/POSIX character classification functions in the documentation at the top of this header file.

Parameters
cthe code point to be tested
Returns
true if the code point is a hexadecimal digit

◆ u_stringHasBinaryProperty()

U_CAPI UBool u_stringHasBinaryProperty ( const UChar s,
int32_t  length,
UProperty  which 
)

Returns true if the property is true for the string.

Same as u_hasBinaryProperty(single code point, which) if the string contains exactly one code point.

Most properties apply only to single code points. UTS #51 Unicode Emoji defines several properties of strings.

Parameters
sString to test.
lengthLength of the string, or negative if NUL-terminated.
whichUProperty selector constant, identifies which binary property to check. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT.
Returns
true or false according to the binary Unicode property value for the string. Also false if 'which' is out of bounds or if the Unicode version does not have data for the property at all.

◆ u_tolower()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_tolower ( UChar32  c)

The given character is mapped to its lowercase equivalent according to UnicodeData.txt; if the character has no lowercase equivalent, the character itself is returned.

Same as java.lang.Character.toLowerCase().

This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. Full case mappings should be used whenever possible because they produce better results by working on whole strings. They take into account the string context and the language and can map to a result string with a different length as appropriate. Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. See also the User Guide chapter on C/POSIX migration: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu/posix#case-mappings

Parameters
cthe code point to be mapped
Returns
the Simple_Lowercase_Mapping of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself.
Stable:
ICU 2.0

◆ u_totitle()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_totitle ( UChar32  c)

The given character is mapped to its titlecase equivalent according to UnicodeData.txt; if none is defined, the character itself is returned.

Same as java.lang.Character.toTitleCase().

This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. Full case mappings should be used whenever possible because they produce better results by working on whole strings. They take into account the string context and the language and can map to a result string with a different length as appropriate. Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. See also the User Guide chapter on C/POSIX migration: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu/posix#case-mappings

Parameters
cthe code point to be mapped
Returns
the Simple_Titlecase_Mapping of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself.
Stable:
ICU 2.0

◆ u_toupper()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_toupper ( UChar32  c)

The given character is mapped to its uppercase equivalent according to UnicodeData.txt; if the character has no uppercase equivalent, the character itself is returned.

Same as java.lang.Character.toUpperCase().

This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. Full case mappings should be used whenever possible because they produce better results by working on whole strings. They take into account the string context and the language and can map to a result string with a different length as appropriate. Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. See also the User Guide chapter on C/POSIX migration: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu/posix#case-mappings

Parameters
cthe code point to be mapped
Returns
the Simple_Uppercase_Mapping of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself.
Stable:
ICU 2.0

◆ ublock_getCode()

U_CAPI UBlockCode ublock_getCode ( UChar32  c)

Returns the Unicode allocation block that contains the character.

Parameters
cthe code point to be tested
Returns
the block value (UBlockCode) for c
