23 * \brief C API: Initialize and clean up ICU
29 * Use of this function is optional. It is OK to simply use ICU
30 * services and functions without first having initialized
31 * ICU by calling u_init().
33 * u_init() will attempt to load some part of ICU's data, and is
34 * useful as a test for configuration or installation problems that
35 * leave the ICU data inaccessible. A successful invocation of u_init()
36 * does not, however, guarantee that all ICU data is accessible.
38 * Multiple calls to u_init() cause no harm, aside from the small amount
41 * In old versions of ICU, u_init() was required in multi-threaded applications
42 * to ensure the thread safety of ICU. u_init() is no longer needed for this purpose.
44 * @param status An ICU UErrorCode parameter. It must not be <code>NULL</code>.
45 * An Error will be returned if some required part of ICU data can not
46 * be loaded or initialized.
47 * The function returns immediately if the input error code indicates a
52 U_STABLE
void U_EXPORT2
53 u_init(UErrorCode
*status
);
56 * Clean up the system resources, such as allocated memory or open files,
57 * used in all ICU libraries. This will free/delete all memory owned by the
58 * ICU libraries, and return them to their original load state. All open ICU
59 * items (collators, resource bundles, converters, etc.) must be closed before
60 * calling this function, otherwise ICU may not free its allocated memory
61 * (e.g. close your converters and resource bundles before calling this
62 * function). Generally, this function should be called once just before
63 * an application exits. For applications that dynamically load and unload
64 * the ICU libraries (relatively uncommon), u_cleanup() should be called
65 * just before the library unload.
67 * u_cleanup() also clears any ICU heap functions, mutex functions or
68 * trace functions that may have been set for the process.
69 * This has the effect of restoring ICU to its initial condition, before
70 * any of these override functions were installed. Refer to
71 * u_setMemoryFunctions(), u_setMutexFunctions and
72 * utrace_setFunctions(). If ICU is to be reinitialized after after
73 * calling u_cleanup(), these runtime override functions will need to
74 * be set up again if they are still required.
76 * u_cleanup() is not thread safe. All other threads should stop using ICU
77 * before calling this function.
79 * Any open ICU items will be left in an undefined state by u_cleanup(),
80 * and any subsequent attempt to use such an item will give unpredictable
83 * After calling u_cleanup(), an application may continue to use ICU by
84 * calling u_init(). An application must invoke u_init() first from one single
85 * thread before allowing other threads call u_init(). All threads existing
86 * at the time of the first thread's call to u_init() must also call
87 * u_init() themselves before continuing with other ICU operations.
89 * The use of u_cleanup() just before an application terminates is optional,
90 * but it should be called only once for performance reasons. The primary
91 * benefit is to eliminate reports of memory or resource leaks originating
92 * in ICU code from the results generated by heap analysis tools.
94 * <strong>Use this function with great care!</strong>

107 * An opaque pointer type that represents an ICU mutex.
108 * For user-implemented mutexes, the value will typically point to a
109 * struct or object that implements the mutex.
116 * Function Pointer type for a user supplied mutex initialization function.
117 * The user-supplied function will be called by ICU whenever ICU needs to create a
118 * new mutex. The function implementation should create a mutex, and store a pointer
119 * to something that uniquely identifies the mutex into the UMTX that is supplied
121 * @param context user supplied value, obtained from from u_setMutexFunctions().
122 * @param mutex Receives a pointer that identifies the new mutex.
123 * The mutex init function must set the UMTX to a non-null value.
124 * Subsequent calls by ICU to lock, unlock, or destroy a mutex will
125 * identify the mutex by the UMTX value.
126 * @param status Error status. Report errors back to ICU by setting this variable
127 * with an error code.
