34 * \brief C API: BreakIterator
35 *
36 * <h2> BreakIterator C API </h2>
37 *
38 * The BreakIterator C API defines methods for finding the location
39 * of boundaries in text. Pointer to a UBreakIterator maintain a
40 * current position and scan over text returning the index of characters
41 * where boundaries occur.
42 * <p>
43 * Line boundary analysis determines where a text string can be broken
44 * when line-wrapping. The mechanism correctly handles punctuation and
45 * hyphenated words.
46 * <p>
47 * Sentence boundary analysis allows selection with correct
48 * interpretation of periods within numbers and abbreviations, and
49 * trailing punctuation marks such as quotation marks and parentheses.
50 * <p>
51 * Word boundary analysis is used by search and replace functions, as
52 * well as within text editing applications that allow the user to
53 * select words with a double click. Word selection provides correct
54 * interpretation of punctuation marks within and following
55 * words. Characters that are not part of a word, such as symbols or
56 * punctuation marks, have word-breaks on both sides.
57 * <p>
58 * Character boundary analysis allows users to interact with
59 * characters as they expect to, for example, when moving the cursor
60 * through a text string. Character boundary analysis provides correct
61 * navigation of through character strings, regardless of how the
62 * character is stored. For example, an accented character might be
63 * stored as a base character and a diacritical mark. What users
64 * consider to be a character can differ between languages.
65 * <p>
66 * Title boundary analysis locates all positions,
67 * typically starts of words, that should be set to Title Case
68 * when title casing the text.
69 * <p>
70 * The text boundary positions are found according to the rules
71 * described in Unicode Standard Annex #29, Text Boundaries, and
72 * Unicode Standard Annex #14, Line Breaking Properties. These
73 * are available at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr14/ and
74 * http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/.
75 * <p>
76 * In addition to the plain C API defined in this header file, an
77 * object oriented C++ API with equivalent functionality is defined in the
78 * file brkiter.h.
79 * <p>
80 * Code snippits illustrating the use of the Break Iterator APIs
81 * are available in the ICU User Guide,
82 * http://icu-project.org/userguide/boundaryAnalysis.html
83 * and in the sample program icu/source/samples/break/break.cpp"
