Typedef Documentation

◆ UStringPrepProfile

StringPrep API implements the StingPrep framework as described by RFC 3454.

StringPrep prepares Unicode strings for use in network protocols. Profiles of StingPrep are set of rules and data according to with the Unicode Strings are prepared. Each profiles contains tables which describe how a code point should be treated. The tables are broadly classified into

  • Unassigned Table: Contains code points that are unassigned in the Unicode Version supported by StringPrep. Currently RFC 3454 supports Unicode 3.2.
  • Prohibited Table: Contains code points that are prohibited from the output of the StringPrep processing function.
  • Mapping Table: Contains code points that are deleted from the output or case mapped.

The procedure for preparing Unicode strings:

  1. Map: For each character in the input, check if it has a mapping and, if so, replace it with its mapping.
  2. Normalize: Possibly normalize the result of step 1 using Unicode normalization.
  3. Prohibit: Check for any characters that are not allowed in the output. If any are found, return an error.
  4. Check bidi: Possibly check for right-to-left characters, and if any are found, make sure that the whole string satisfies the requirements for bidirectional strings. If the string does not satisfy the requirements for bidirectional strings, return an error.

Function Documentation

◆ usprep_close()

void usprep_close ( UStringPrepProfile profile)

Closes the profile.

Parameters
profileThe profile to close
Stable:
ICU 2.8

◆ usprep_open()

UStringPrepProfile* usprep_open ( const char *  path,
const char *  fileName,
UErrorCode status 
)

Creates a StringPrep profile from the data file.

Parameters
pathstring containing the full path pointing to the directory where the profile reside followed by the package name e.g. "/usr/resource/my_app/profiles/mydata" on a Unix system. if NULL, ICU default data files will be used.
fileNamename of the profile file to be opened
statusICU error code in/out parameter. Must not be NULL. Must fulfill U_SUCCESS before the function call.
Returns
Pointer to UStringPrepProfile that is opened. Should be closed by calling usprep_close()
See also

Stable:
ICU 2.8

◆ usprep_openByType()

UStringPrepProfile* usprep_openByType ( UStringPrepProfileType  type,
UErrorCode status 
)

Creates a StringPrep profile for the specified profile type.

Parameters
typeThe profile type
statusICU error code in/out parameter. Must not be NULL. Must fulfill U_SUCCESS before the function call.
Returns
Pointer to UStringPrepProfile that is opened. Should be closed by calling usprep_close()

usprep_close()
Stable:
ICU 4.2

◆ usprep_prepare()

int32_t usprep_prepare ( const UStringPrepProfile prep,
const UChar src,
int32_t  srcLength,
UChar dest,
int32_t  destCapacity,
int32_t  options,
UParseError parseError,
UErrorCode status 
)

Prepare the input buffer for use in applications with the given profile.

This operation maps, normalizes(NFKC), checks for prohibited and BiDi characters in the order defined by RFC 3454 depending on the options specified in the profile.

Parameters
prepThe profile to use
srcPointer to UChar buffer containing the string to prepare
srcLengthNumber of characters in the source string
destPointer to the destination buffer to receive the output
destCapacityThe capacity of destination array
optionsA bit set of options:
  • USPREP_DEFAULT Prohibit processing of unassigned code points in the input
  • USPREP_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED Treat the unassigned code points are in the input as normal Unicode code points.
Parameters
parseErrorPointer to UParseError struct to receive information on position of error if an error is encountered. Can be NULL.
statusICU in/out error code parameter. U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND if src contains unmatched single surrogates. U_INDEX_OUTOFBOUNDS_ERROR if src contains too many code points. U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR if destCapacity is not enough
Returns
The number of UChars in the destination buffer
