/* The macros in this file implement multi-byte character representation
and forward iteration through a multi-byte string.
They are simpler and can be faster than the mbiter family.
However, they do not support obsolescent encodings like CP864,
EBCDIC, Johab, and Shift JIS that glibc also does not support,
and it is up to the caller to coalesce encoding-error bytes if desired.
The mcel_scan function lets code iterate through an array of bytes,
supporting character encodings in practical use
more simply than using plain mbrtoc32.
Instead of this single-byte code:
char *p = ..., *lim = ...;
for (; p < lim; p++)
process (*p);
You can use this multi-byte code:
char *p = ..., *lim = ...;
for (mcel_t g; p < lim; p += g.len)
{
g = mcel_scan (p, lim);
process (g);
}
You can select from G using G.ch, G.err, and G.len.
G is an encoding error if G.err is nonzero, a character otherwise.
The mcel_scanz function is similar except it works with a
string of unknown but positive length that is terminated with '\0'.
Instead of this single-byte code:
char *p = ...;
for (; *p; p++)
process (*p);
You can use this multi-byte code:
char *p = ...;
for (mcel_t g; *p; p += g.len)
{
g = mcel_scanz (p);
process (g);
}
mcel_scant (P, TERMINATOR) is like mcel_scanz (P) except the
string is terminated by TERMINATOR. The C standard says that the
TERMINATORs '\0', '\r', '\n', '.', '/' are safe, as they cannot be
a part (even a trailing byte) of a multi-byte character.
In practice TERMINATOR is safe if 0 <= TERMINATOR <= 0x2f (ASCII '/').
mcel_ch (CH, LEN) and mcel_err (ERR) construct mcel_t values.
mcel_cmp (G1, G2) compares two mcel_t values lexicographically by
character or by encoding byte value, with encoding bytes sorting
after characters.
Calls like c32isalpha (G.ch) test G; they return false for encoding
errors since calls like c32isalpha (0) return false. Calls like
mcel_tocmp (c32tolower, G1, G2) are like mcel_cmp (G1, G2),
but transliterate first.
Although ISO C and POSIX allow encodings that have shift states or
that can produce multiple characters from an indivisible byte sequence,
POSIX does not require support for these encodings,
they are not in practical use on GNUish platforms,
and omitting support for them simplifies the API. */
