35 * \brief C API: BreakIterator |
| |
36 * |
| |
37 * <h2> BreakIterator C API </h2> |
| |
38 * |
| |
39 * The BreakIterator C API defines methods for finding the location |
| |
40 * of boundaries in text. Pointer to a UBreakIterator maintain a |
| |
41 * current position and scan over text returning the index of characters |
| |
42 * where boundaries occur. |
| |
43 * <p> |
| |
44 * Line boundary analysis determines where a text string can be broken |
| |
45 * when line-wrapping. The mechanism correctly handles punctuation and |
| |
46 * hyphenated words. |
| |
47 * <p> |
| |
48 * Sentence boundary analysis allows selection with correct |
| |
49 * interpretation of periods within numbers and abbreviations, and |
| |
50 * trailing punctuation marks such as quotation marks and parentheses. |
| |
51 * <p> |
| |
52 * Word boundary analysis is used by search and replace functions, as |
| |
53 * well as within text editing applications that allow the user to |
| |
54 * select words with a double click. Word selection provides correct |
| |
55 * interpretation of punctuation marks within and following |
| |
56 * words. Characters that are not part of a word, such as symbols or |
| |
57 * punctuation marks, have word-breaks on both sides. |
| |
58 * <p> |
| |
59 * Character boundary analysis identifies the boundaries of |
| |
60 * "Extended Grapheme Clusters", which are groupings of codepoints |
| |
61 * that should be treated as character-like units for many text operations. |
| |
62 * Please see Unicode Standard Annex #29, Unicode Text Segmentation, |
| |
63 * http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/ for additional information |
| |
64 * on grapheme clusters and guidelines on their use. |
| |
65 * <p> |
| |
66 * Title boundary analysis locates all positions, |
| |
67 * typically starts of words, that should be set to Title Case |
| |
68 * when title casing the text. |
| |
69 * <p> |
| |
70 * The text boundary positions are found according to the rules |
| |
71 * described in Unicode Standard Annex #29, Text Boundaries, and |
| |
72 * Unicode Standard Annex #14, Line Breaking Properties. These |
| |
73 * are available at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr14/ and |
| |
74 * http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/. |
| |
75 * <p> |
| |
76 * In addition to the plain C API defined in this header file, an |
| |
77 * object oriented C++ API with equivalent functionality is defined in the |
| |
78 * file brkiter.h. |
| |
79 * <p> |
| |
80 * Code snippets illustrating the use of the Break Iterator APIs |
| |
81 * are available in the ICU User Guide, |
| |
82 * http://icu-project.org/userguide/boundaryAnalysis.html |
| |
83 * and in the sample program icu/source/samples/break/break.cpp |
