23/**
24 * <code>UScriptRun</code> is used to find runs of characters in
25 * the same script. It implements a simple iterator over an array
26 * of characters. The iterator will resolve script-neutral characters
27 * like punctuation into the script of the surrounding characters.
28 *
29 * The iterator will try to match paired punctuation. If it sees an
30 * opening punctuation character, it will remember the script that
31 * was assigned to that character, and assign the same script to the
32 * matching closing punctuation.
33 *
34 * Scripts are chosen based on the <code>UScriptCode</code> enumeration.
35 * No attempt is made to combine related scripts into a single run. In
36 * particular, Hiragana, Katakana, and Han characters will appear in seperate
37 * runs.
38
39 * Here is an example of how to iterate over script runs:
40 * <pre>
41 * \code
42 * void printScriptRuns(const UChar *text, int32_t length)
43 * {
44 * UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
45 * UScriptRun *scriptRun = uscript_openRun(text, testLength, &error);
46 * int32_t start = 0, limit = 0;
47 * UScriptCode code = USCRIPT_INVALID_CODE;
48 *
49 * while (uscript_nextRun(&start, &limit, &code)) {
50 * printf("Script '%s' from %d to %d.\n", uscript_getName(code), start, limit);
51 * }
52 *
53 * uscript_closeRun(scriptRun);
54 * }
55 * </pre>
