19 * \brief C API: Code point macros
20 *
21 * This file defines macros for checking whether a code point is
22 * a surrogate or a non-character etc.
23 *
24 * The UChar and UChar32 data types for Unicode code units and code points
25 * are defined in umachines.h because they can be machine-dependent.
26 *
27 * utf.h is included by utypes.h and itself includes utf8.h and utf16.h after some
28 * common definitions. Those files define macros for efficiently getting code points
29 * in and out of UTF-8/16 strings.
30 * utf16.h macros have "U16_" prefixes.
31 * utf8.h defines similar macros with "U8_" prefixes for UTF-8 string handling.
32 *
33 * ICU processes 16-bit Unicode strings.
34 * Most of the time, such strings are well-formed UTF-16.
35 * Single, unpaired surrogates must be handled as well, and are treated in ICU
36 * like regular code points where possible.
37 * (Pairs of surrogate code points are indistinguishable from supplementary
38 * code points encoded as pairs of supplementary code units.)
39 *
40 * In fact, almost all Unicode code points in normal text (>99%)
41 * are on the BMP (<=U+ffff) and even <=U+d7ff.
42 * ICU functions handle supplementary code points (U+10000..U+10ffff)
43 * but are optimized for the much more frequently occurring BMP code points.
44 *
45 * utf.h defines UChar to be an unsigned 16-bit integer. If this matches wchar_t, then
46 * UChar is defined to be exactly wchar_t, otherwise uint16_t.
47 *
48 * UChar32 is defined to be a signed 32-bit integer (int32_t), large enough for a 21-bit
49 * Unicode code point (Unicode scalar value, 0..0x10ffff).
50 * Before ICU 2.4, the definition of UChar32 was similarly platform-dependent as
51 * the definition of UChar. For details see the documentation for UChar32 itself.
52 *
53 * utf.h also defines a small number of C macros for single Unicode code points.
54 * These are simple checks for surrogates and non-characters.
55 * For actual Unicode character properties see uchar.h.
56 *
57 * By default, string operations must be done with error checking in case
58 * a string is not well-formed UTF-16.
59 * The macros will detect if a surrogate code unit is unpaired
60 * (lead unit without trail unit or vice versa) and just return the unit itself
61 * as the code point.
62 * (It is an accidental property of Unicode and UTF-16 that all
63 * malformed sequences can be expressed unambiguously with a distinct subrange
64 * of Unicode code points.)
65 *
66 * The regular "safe" macros require that the initial, passed-in string index
67 * is within bounds. They only check the index when they read more than one
68 * code unit. This is usually done with code similar to the following loop:
69 * <pre>while(i<length) {
70 * U16_NEXT(s, i, length, c);
71 * // use c
72 * }</pre>
73 *
74 * When it is safe to assume that text is well-formed UTF-16
75 * (does not contain single, unpaired surrogates), then one can use
76 * U16_..._UNSAFE macros.
77 * These do not check for proper code unit sequences or truncated text and may
78 * yield wrong results or even cause a crash if they are used with "malformed"
79 * text.
80 * In practice, U16_..._UNSAFE macros will produce slightly less code but
81 * should not be faster because the processing is only different when a
82 * surrogate code unit is detected, which will be rare.
83 *
84 * Similarly for UTF-8, there are "safe" macros without a suffix,
85 * and U8_..._UNSAFE versions.
86 * The performance differences are much larger here because UTF-8 provides so
87 * many opportunities for malformed sequences.
88 * The unsafe UTF-8 macros are entirely implemented inside the macro definitions
89 * and are fast, while the safe UTF-8 macros call functions for all but the
90 * trivial (ASCII) cases.
91 * (ICU 3.6 optimizes U8_NEXT() and U8_APPEND() to handle most other common
92 * characters inline as well.)
93 *
94 * Unlike with UTF-16, malformed sequences cannot be expressed with distinct
95 * code point values (0..U+10ffff). They are indicated with negative values instead.
96 *
97 * For more information see the ICU User Guide Strings chapter
98 * (http://icu-project.org/userguide/strings.html).
99 *
100 * <em>Usage:</em>
101 * ICU coding guidelines for if() statements should be followed when using these macros.
102 * Compound statements (curly braces {}) must be used for if-else-while...
103 * bodies and all macro statements should be terminated with semicolon.
