23 * \brief C++ API: FilteredBreakIteratorBuilder
27 * The BreakIteratorFilter is used to modify the behavior of a BreakIterator
28 * by constructing a new BreakIterator which suppresses certain segment boundaries.
29 * See http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-general.html#Segmentation_Exceptions .
30 * For example, a typical English Sentence Break Iterator would break on the space
31 * in the string "Mr. Smith" (resulting in two segments),
32 * but with "Mr." as an exception, a filtered break iterator
33 * would consider the string "Mr. Smith" to be a single segment.
37 class U_COMMON_API FilteredBreakIteratorBuilder
: public UObject
{
43 virtual ~FilteredBreakIteratorBuilder();
46 * Construct a FilteredBreakIteratorBuilder based on rules in a locale.
47 * The rules are taken from CLDR exception data for the locale,
48 * see http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-general.html#Segmentation_Exceptions
49 * This is the equivalent of calling createInstance(UErrorCode&)
50 * and then repeatedly calling addNoBreakAfter(...) with the contents
51 * of the CLDR exception data.
52 * @param where the locale.
53 * @param status The error code.
54 * @return the new builder

83 * Suppress a certain string from being the end of a segment.
84 * For example, suppressing "Mr.", then segments ending in "Mr." will not be returned
86 * @param string the string to suppress, such as "Mr."
87 * @param status error code
88 * @return returns TRUE if the string was not present and now added,
89 * FALSE if the call was a no-op because the string was already being suppressed.

95 * Stop suppressing a certain string from being the end of the segment.
96 * This function does not create any new segment boundaries, but only serves to un-do
97 * the effect of earlier calls to suppressBreakAfter, or to un-do the effect of
98 * locale data which may be suppressing certain strings.
99 * @param exception the exception to remove
100 * @param status error code
101 * @return returns TRUE if the string was present and now removed,
102 * FALSE if the call was a no-op because the string was not being suppressed.
