The MUTT UCData API
-------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Macros that combine to select data tables for ucdata_load(), ucdata_unload(),
and ucdata_reload().
#define UCDATA_CASE 0x01
#define UCDATA_CTYPE 0x02
#define UCDATA_DECOMP 0x04
#define UCDATA_CMBCL 0x08
#define UCDATA_NUM 0x10
#define UCATA_ALL (UCDATA_CASE|UCDATA_CTYPE|UCDATA_DECOMP|\
UCDATA_CMBCL|UCDATA_NUM)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void ucdata_load(char *paths, int masks)
This function initializes the UCData library by locating the data files in
one of the colon-separated directories in the `paths' parameter. The data
files to be loaded are specified in the `masks' parameter as a bitwise
combination of the macros listed above.
This should be called before using any of the other functions.
NOTE: the ucdata_setup(char *paths) function is now a macro that expands
into this function at compile time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void ucdata_unload(int masks)
This function unloads the data tables specified in the `masks' parameter.
This function should be called when the application is done using the UCData
package.
NOTE: the ucdata_cleanup() function is now a macro that expands into this
function at compile time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void ucdata_reload(char *paths, int masks)
This function reloads the data files from one of the colon-separated
directories in the `paths' parameter. The data files to be reloaded are
specified in the `masks' parameter as a bitwise combination of the macros
listed above.
If the data files have already been loaded, they are unloaded before the
data files are loaded again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucdecomp(unsigned long code, unsigned long *num, unsigned long **decomp)
This function determines if a character has a decomposition and returns the
decomposition information if it exists.
If a zero is returned, there is no decomposition. If a non-zero is
returned, then the `num' and `decomp' variables are filled in with the
appropriate values.
Example call:
unsigned long i, num, *decomp;
if (ucdecomp(0x1d5, &num, &decomp) != 0) {
for (i = 0; i < num; i++)
printf("0x%08lX,", decomp[i]);
putchar('\n');
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucdecomp_hangul(unsigned long code, unsigned long *num,
unsigned long decomp[])
This function determines if a Hangul syllable has a decomposition and
returns the decomposition information.
An array of at least size 3 should be passed to the function for the
decomposition of the syllable.
If a zero is returned, the character is not a Hangul syllable. If a
non-zero is returned, the `num' field will be 2 or 3 and the syllable will
be decomposed into the `decomp' array arithmetically.
Example call:
unsigned long i, num, decomp[3];
if (ucdecomp_hangul(0xb1ba, &num, &decomp) != 0) {
for (i = 0; i < num; i++)
printf("0x%08lX,", decomp[i]);
putchar('\n');
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
struct ucnumber {
int numerator;
int denominator;
};
int ucnumber_lookup(unsigned long code, struct ucnumber *num)
This function determines if the code is a number and fills in the `num'
field with the numerator and denominator. If the code happens to be a
single digit, the numerator and denominator fields will be the same.
If the function returns 0, the code is not a number. Any other return
value means the code is a number.
int ucdigit_lookup(unsigned long code, int *digit)
This function determines if the code is a digit and fills in the `digit'
field with the digit value.
If the function returns 0, the code is not a number. Any other return
value means the code is a number.
struct ucnumber ucgetnumber(unsigned long code)
This is a compatibility function with John Cowan's "uctype" package. It
uses ucnumber_lookup().
int ucgetdigit(unsigned long code)
This is a compatibility function with John Cowan's "uctype" package. It
uses ucdigit_lookup().
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
unsigned long uctoupper(unsigned long code)
This function returns the code unchanged if it is already upper case or has
no upper case equivalent. Otherwise the upper case equivalent is returned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
unsigned long uctolower(unsigned long code)
This function returns the code unchanged if it is already lower case or has
no lower case equivalent. Otherwise the lower case equivalent is returned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
unsigned long uctotitle(unsigned long code)
This function returns the code unchanged if it is already title case or has
no title case equivalent. Otherwise the title case equivalent is returned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucisalpha(unsigned long code)
int ucisalnum(unsigned long code)
int ucisdigit(unsigned long code)
int uciscntrl(unsigned long code)
int ucisspace(unsigned long code)
int ucisblank(unsigned long code)
int ucispunct(unsigned long code)
int ucisgraph(unsigned long code)
int ucisprint(unsigned long code)
int ucisxdigit(unsigned long code)
int ucisupper(unsigned long code)
int ucislower(unsigned long code)
int ucistitle(unsigned long code)
These functions (actually macros) determine if a character has these
properties. These behave in a fashion very similar to the venerable ctype
package.
