    1.40 +/**
    1.41 + *
    1.42 + * <code>Transliterator</code> is an abstract class that
    1.43 + * transliterates text from one format to another.  The most common
    1.44 + * kind of transliterator is a script, or alphabet, transliterator.
    1.45 + * For example, a Russian to Latin transliterator changes Russian text
    1.46 + * written in Cyrillic characters to phonetically equivalent Latin
    1.47 + * characters.  It does not <em>translate</em> Russian to English!
    1.48 + * Transliteration, unlike translation, operates on characters, without
    1.49 + * reference to the meanings of words and sentences.
    1.50 + *
    1.51 + * <p>Although script conversion is its most common use, a
    1.52 + * transliterator can actually perform a more general class of tasks.
    1.53 + * In fact, <code>Transliterator</code> defines a very general API
    1.54 + * which specifies only that a segment of the input text is replaced
    1.55 + * by new text.  The particulars of this conversion are determined
    1.56 + * entirely by subclasses of <code>Transliterator</code>.
    1.57 + *
    1.58 + * <p><b>Transliterators are stateless</b>
    1.59 + *
    1.60 + * <p><code>Transliterator</code> objects are <em>stateless</em>; they
    1.61 + * retain no information between calls to
    1.62 + * <code>transliterate()</code>.  (However, this does <em>not</em>
    1.63 + * mean that threads may share transliterators without synchronizing
    1.64 + * them.  Transliterators are not immutable, so they must be
    1.65 + * synchronized when shared between threads.)  This might seem to
    1.66 + * limit the complexity of the transliteration operation.  In
    1.67 + * practice, subclasses perform complex transliterations by delaying
    1.68 + * the replacement of text until it is known that no other
    1.69 + * replacements are possible.  In other words, although the
    1.70 + * <code>Transliterator</code> objects are stateless, the source text
    1.71 + * itself embodies all the needed information, and delayed operation
    1.72 + * allows arbitrary complexity.
    1.73 + *
    1.74 + * <p><b>Batch transliteration</b>
    1.75 + *
    1.76 + * <p>The simplest way to perform transliteration is all at once, on a
    1.77 + * string of existing text.  This is referred to as <em>batch</em>
    1.78 + * transliteration.  For example, given a string <code>input</code>
    1.79 + * and a transliterator <code>t</code>, the call
    1.80 + *
    1.81 + * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly<code>String result = t.transliterate(input);
    1.82 + * </code>\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
    1.83 + *
    1.84 + * will transliterate it and return the result.  Other methods allow
    1.85 + * the client to specify a substring to be transliterated and to use
    1.86 + * {@link Replaceable } objects instead of strings, in order to
    1.87 + * preserve out-of-band information (such as text styles).
    1.88 + *
    1.89 + * <p><b>Keyboard transliteration</b>
    1.90 + *
    1.91 + * <p>Somewhat more involved is <em>keyboard</em>, or incremental
    1.92 + * transliteration.  This is the transliteration of text that is
    1.93 + * arriving from some source (typically the user's keyboard) one
    1.94 + * character at a time, or in some other piecemeal fashion.
    1.95 + *
    1.96 + * <p>In keyboard transliteration, a <code>Replaceable</code> buffer
    1.97 + * stores the text.  As text is inserted, as much as possible is
    1.98 + * transliterated on the fly.  This means a GUI that displays the
    1.99 + * contents of the buffer may show text being modified as each new
   1.100 + * character arrives.
   1.101 + *
   1.102 + * <p>Consider the simple <code>RuleBasedTransliterator</code>:
   1.103 + *
   1.104 + * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly<code>
   1.105 + * th&gt;{theta}<br>
   1.106 + * t&gt;{tau}
   1.107 + * </code>\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
   1.108 + *
   1.109 + * When the user types 't', nothing will happen, since the
   1.110 + * transliterator is waiting to see if the next character is 'h'.  To
   1.111 + * remedy this, we introduce the notion of a cursor, marked by a '|'
   1.112 + * in the output string:
   1.113 + *
   1.114 + * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly<code>
   1.115 + * t&gt;|{tau}<br>
   1.116 + * {tau}h&gt;{theta}
   1.117 + * </code>\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
   1.118 + *
   1.119 + * Now when the user types 't', tau appears, and if the next character
   1.120 + * is 'h', the tau changes to a theta.  This is accomplished by
   1.121 + * maintaining a cursor position (independent of the insertion point,
   1.122 + * and invisible in the GUI) across calls to
   1.123 + * <code>transliterate()</code>.  Typically, the cursor will
   1.124 + * be coincident with the insertion point, but in a case like the one
   1.125 + * above, it will precede the insertion point.
   1.126 + *
   1.127 + * <p>Keyboard transliteration methods maintain a set of three indices
   1.128 + * that are updated with each call to
   1.129 + * <code>transliterate()</code>, including the cursor, start,
   1.130 + * and limit.  Since these indices are changed by the method, they are
   1.131 + * passed in an <code>int[]</code> array. The <code>START</code> index
   1.132 + * marks the beginning of the substring that the transliterator will
   1.133 + * look at.  It is advanced as text becomes committed (but it is not
   1.134 + * the committed index; that's the <code>CURSOR</code>).  The
   1.135 + * <code>CURSOR</code> index, described above, marks the point at
   1.136 + * which the transliterator last stopped, either because it reached
   1.137 + * the end, or because it required more characters to disambiguate
   1.138 + * between possible inputs.  The <code>CURSOR</code> can also be
   1.139 + * explicitly set by rules in a <code>RuleBasedTransliterator</code>.
   1.140 + * Any characters before the <code>CURSOR</code> index are frozen;
   1.141 + * future keyboard transliteration calls within this input sequence
   1.142 + * will not change them.  New text is inserted at the
   1.143 + * <code>LIMIT</code> index, which marks the end of the substring that
   1.144 + * the transliterator looks at.
   1.145 + *
   1.146 + * <p>Because keyboard transliteration assumes that more characters
   1.147 + * are to arrive, it is conservative in its operation.  It only
   1.148 + * transliterates when it can do so unambiguously.  Otherwise it waits
   1.149 + * for more characters to arrive.  When the client code knows that no
   1.150 + * more characters are forthcoming, perhaps because the user has
   1.151 + * performed some input termination operation, then it should call
   1.152 + * <code>finishTransliteration()</code> to complete any
   1.153 + * pending transliterations.
   1.154 + *
   1.155 + * <p><b>Inverses</b>
   1.156 + *
   1.157 + * <p>Pairs of transliterators may be inverses of one another.  For
   1.158 + * example, if transliterator <b>A</b> transliterates characters by
   1.159 + * incrementing their Unicode value (so "abc" -> "def"), and
   1.160 + * transliterator <b>B</b> decrements character values, then <b>A</b>
   1.161 + * is an inverse of <b>B</b> and vice versa.  If we compose <b>A</b>
   1.162 + * with <b>B</b> in a compound transliterator, the result is the
   1.163 + * indentity transliterator, that is, a transliterator that does not
   1.164 + * change its input text.
   1.165 + *
   1.166 + * The <code>Transliterator</code> method <code>getInverse()</code>
   1.167 + * returns a transliterator's inverse, if one exists, or
   1.168 + * <code>null</code> otherwise.  However, the result of
   1.169 + * <code>getInverse()</code> usually will <em>not</em> be a true
   1.170 + * mathematical inverse.  This is because true inverse transliterators
   1.171 + * are difficult to formulate.  For example, consider two
   1.172 + * transliterators: <b>AB</b>, which transliterates the character 'A'
   1.173 + * to 'B', and <b>BA</b>, which transliterates 'B' to 'A'.  It might
   1.174 + * seem that these are exact inverses, since
   1.175 + *
   1.176 + * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly"A" x <b>AB</b> -> "B"<br>
   1.177 + * "B" x <b>BA</b> -> "A"\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
   1.178 + *
   1.179 + * where 'x' represents transliteration.  However,
   1.180 + *
   1.181 + * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly"ABCD" x <b>AB</b> -> "BBCD"<br>
   1.182 + * "BBCD" x <b>BA</b> -> "AACD"\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
   1.183 + *
   1.184 + * so <b>AB</b> composed with <b>BA</b> is not the
   1.185 + * identity. Nonetheless, <b>BA</b> may be usefully considered to be
   1.186 + * <b>AB</b>'s inverse, and it is on this basis that
   1.187 + * <b>AB</b><code>.getInverse()</code> could legitimately return
   1.188 + * <b>BA</b>.
   1.189 + *
   1.190 + * <p><b>IDs and display names</b>
   1.191 + *
   1.192 + * <p>A transliterator is designated by a short identifier string or
   1.193 + * <em>ID</em>.  IDs follow the format <em>source-destination</em>,
   1.194 + * where <em>source</em> describes the entity being replaced, and
   1.195 + * <em>destination</em> describes the entity replacing
   1.196 + * <em>source</em>.  The entities may be the names of scripts,
   1.197 + * particular sequences of characters, or whatever else it is that the
   1.198 + * transliterator converts to or from.  For example, a transliterator
   1.199 + * from Russian to Latin might be named "Russian-Latin".  A
   1.200 + * transliterator from keyboard escape sequences to Latin-1 characters
   1.201 + * might be named "KeyboardEscape-Latin1".  By convention, system
   1.202 + * entity names are in English, with the initial letters of words
   1.203 + * capitalized; user entity names may follow any format so long as
   1.204 + * they do not contain dashes.
   1.205 + *
   1.206 + * <p>In addition to programmatic IDs, transliterator objects have
   1.207 + * display names for presentation in user interfaces, returned by
   1.208 + * {@link #getDisplayName }.
   1.209 + *
   1.210 + * <p><b>Factory methods and registration</b>
   1.211 + *
   1.212 + * <p>In general, client code should use the factory method
   1.213 + * {@link #createInstance } to obtain an instance of a
   1.214 + * transliterator given its ID.  Valid IDs may be enumerated using
   1.215 + * <code>getAvailableIDs()</code>.  Since transliterators are mutable,
   1.216 + * multiple calls to {@link #createInstance } with the same ID will
   1.217 + * return distinct objects.
   1.218 + *
   1.219 + * <p>In addition to the system transliterators registered at startup,
   1.220 + * user transliterators may be registered by calling
   1.221 + * <code>registerInstance()</code> at run time.  A registered instance
   1.222 + * acts a template; future calls to {@link #createInstance } with the ID
   1.223 + * of the registered object return clones of that object.  Thus any
   1.224 + * object passed to <tt>registerInstance()</tt> must implement
   1.225 + * <tt>clone()</tt> propertly.  To register a transliterator subclass
   1.226 + * without instantiating it (until it is needed), users may call
   1.227 + * {@link #registerFactory }.  In this case, the objects are
   1.228 + * instantiated by invoking the zero-argument public constructor of
   1.229 + * the class.
   1.230 + *
   1.231 + * <p><b>Subclassing</b>
   1.232 + *
   1.233 + * Subclasses must implement the abstract method
   1.234 + * <code>handleTransliterate()</code>.  <p>Subclasses should override
   1.235 + * the <code>transliterate()</code> method taking a
   1.236 + * <code>Replaceable</code> and the <code>transliterate()</code>
   1.237 + * method taking a <code>String</code> and <code>StringBuffer</code>
   1.238 + * if the performance of these methods can be improved over the
   1.239 + * performance obtained by the default implementations in this class.
