26 * \brief C API: Unicode Normalization
27 *
28 * <h2>Unicode normalization API</h2>
29 *
30 * <code>unorm_normalize</code> transforms Unicode text into an equivalent composed or
31 * decomposed form, allowing for easier sorting and searching of text.
32 * <code>unorm_normalize</code> supports the standard normalization forms described in
33 * <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr15/" target="unicode">
34 * Unicode Standard Annex #15 &#8212; Unicode Normalization Forms</a>.
35 *
36 * Characters with accents or other adornments can be encoded in
37 * several different ways in Unicode. For example, take the character A-acute.
38 * In Unicode, this can be encoded as a single character (the
39 * "composed" form):
40 *
41 * \code
42 * 00C1 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE
43 * \endcode
44 *
45 * or as two separate characters (the "decomposed" form):
46 *
47 * \code
48 * 0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A
49 * 0301 COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT
50 * \endcode
51 *
52 * To a user of your program, however, both of these sequences should be
53 * treated as the same "user-level" character "A with acute accent". When you are searching or
54 * comparing text, you must ensure that these two sequences are treated
55 * equivalently. In addition, you must handle characters with more than one
56 * accent. Sometimes the order of a character's combining accents is
57 * significant, while in other cases accent sequences in different orders are
58 * really equivalent.
59 *
60 * Similarly, the string "ffi" can be encoded as three separate letters:
61 *
62 * \code
63 * 0066 LATIN SMALL LETTER F
64 * 0066 LATIN SMALL LETTER F
65 * 0069 LATIN SMALL LETTER I
66 * \endcode
67 *
68 * or as the single character
69 *
70 * \code
71 * FB03 LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FFI
72 * \endcode
73 *
74 * The ffi ligature is not a distinct semantic character, and strictly speaking
75 * it shouldn't be in Unicode at all, but it was included for compatibility
76 * with existing character sets that already provided it. The Unicode standard
77 * identifies such characters by giving them "compatibility" decompositions
78 * into the corresponding semantic characters. When sorting and searching, you
79 * will often want to use these mappings.
80 *
81 * <code>unorm_normalize</code> helps solve these problems by transforming text into the
82 * canonical composed and decomposed forms as shown in the first example above.
83 * In addition, you can have it perform compatibility decompositions so that
84 * you can treat compatibility characters the same as their equivalents.
85 * Finally, <code>unorm_normalize</code> rearranges accents into the proper canonical
86 * order, so that you do not have to worry about accent rearrangement on your
87 * own.
88 *
89 * Form FCD, "Fast C or D", is also designed for collation.
90 * It allows to work on strings that are not necessarily normalized
91 * with an algorithm (like in collation) that works under "canonical closure", i.e., it treats precomposed
92 * characters and their decomposed equivalents the same.
93 *
94 * It is not a normalization form because it does not provide for uniqueness of representation. Multiple strings
95 * may be canonically equivalent (their NFDs are identical) and may all conform to FCD without being identical
96 * themselves.
97 *
98 * The form is defined such that the "raw decomposition", the recursive canonical decomposition of each character,
99 * results in a string that is canonically ordered. This means that precomposed characters are allowed for as long
100 * as their decompositions do not need canonical reordering.
101 *
102 * Its advantage for a process like collation is that all NFD and most NFC texts - and many unnormalized texts -
103 * already conform to FCD and do not need to be normalized (NFD) for such a process. The FCD quick check will
104 * return UNORM_YES for most strings in practice.
105 *
106 * unorm_normalize(UNORM_FCD) may be implemented with UNORM_NFD.
107 *
108 * For more details on FCD see the collation design document:
109 * http://oss.software.ibm.com/cvs/icu/~checkout~/icuhtml/design/collation/ICU_collation_design.htm
110 *
111 * ICU collation performs either NFD or FCD normalization automatically if normalization
112 * is turned on for the collator object.
113 * Beyond collation and string search, normalized strings may be useful for string equivalence comparisons,
114 * transliteration/transcription, unique representations, etc.
115 *
116 * The W3C generally recommends to exchange texts in NFC.
117 * Note also that most legacy character encodings use only precomposed forms and often do not
118 * encode any combining marks by themselves. For conversion to such character encodings the
119 * Unicode text needs to be normalized to NFC.
120 * For more usage examples, see the Unicode Standard Annex.

321 * Iterative normalization forward.
322 * This function (together with unorm_previous) is somewhat
323 * similar to the C++ Normalizer class (see its non-static functions).
324 *
325 * Iterative normalization is useful when only a small portion of a longer
326 * string/text needs to be processed.
327 *
328 * For example, the likelihood may be high that processing the first 10% of some
329 * text will be sufficient to find certain data.
330 * Another example: When one wants to concatenate two normalized strings and get a
331 * normalized result, it is much more efficient to normalize just a small part of
332 * the result around the concatenation place instead of re-normalizing everything.
333 *
334 * The input text is an instance of the C character iteration API UCharIterator.
335 * It may wrap around a simple string, a CharacterIterator, a Replaceable, or any
336 * other kind of text object.
337 *
338 * If a buffer overflow occurs, then the caller needs to reset the iterator to the
339 * old index and call the function again with a larger buffer - if the caller cares
340 * for the actual output.
341 * Regardless of the output buffer, the iterator will always be moved to the next
342 * normalization boundary.
343 *
344 * This function (like unorm_previous) serves two purposes:
345 *
346 * 1) To find the next boundary so that the normalization of the part of the text
347 * from the current position to that boundary does not affect and is not affected
348 * by the part of the text beyond that boundary.
349 *
350 * 2) To normalize the text up to the boundary.
351 *
352 * The second step is optional, per the doNormalize parameter.
353 * It is omitted for operations like string concatenation, where the two adjacent
354 * string ends need to be normalized together.
355 * In such a case, the output buffer will just contain a copy of the text up to the
356 * boundary.
357 *
358 * pNeededToNormalize is an output-only parameter. Its output value is only defined
359 * if normalization was requested (doNormalize) and successful (especially, no
360 * buffer overflow).
361 * It is useful for operations like a normalizing transliterator, where one would
362 * not want to replace a piece of text if it is not modified.
363 *
364 * If doNormalize==TRUE and pNeededToNormalize!=NULL then *pNeeded... is set TRUE
365 * if the normalization was necessary.
366 *
367 * If doNormalize==FALSE then *pNeededToNormalize will be set to FALSE.
368 *

370 * essentially, whenever U_FAILURE is true (like in buffer overflows), this result

531 * - U_FOLD_CASE_DEFAULT or 0 is used for default options:
532 * Case-sensitive comparison in code unit order, and the input strings
533 * are quick-checked for FCD.
534 *
535 * - UNORM_INPUT_IS_FCD
536 * Set if the caller knows that both s1 and s2 fulfill the FCD conditions.
537 * If not set, the function will quickCheck for FCD
538 * and normalize if necessary.
539 *
540 * - U_COMPARE_CODE_POINT_ORDER
541 * Set to choose code point order instead of code unit order
542 * (see u_strCompare for details).
543 *
544 * - U_COMPARE_IGNORE_CASE
545 * Set to compare strings case-insensitively using case folding,
546 * instead of case-sensitively.
547 * If set, then the following case folding options are used.
548 *
549 * - Options as used with case-insensitive comparisons, currently:
550 *
551 * - U_FOLD_CASE_EXCLUDE_SPECIAL_I
552 * (see u_strCaseCompare for details)
553 *
554 * - regular normalization options shifted left by UNORM_COMPARE_NORM_OPTIONS_SHIFT
555 *
556 * @param pErrorCode ICU error code in/out parameter.
557 * Must fulfill U_SUCCESS before the function call.
558 * @return <0 or 0 or >0 as usual for string comparisons
