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 84 */ 85 86 /** The possible types of text boundaries. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 87 typedef enum UBreakIteratorType { 88 /** Character breaks @stable ICU 2.0 */ 89 UBRK_CHARACTER = 0, 90 /** Word breaks @stable ICU 2.0 */ 91 UBRK_WORD = 1, 92 /** Line breaks @stable ICU 2.0 */ 93 UBRK_LINE = 2, 94 /** Sentence breaks @stable ICU 2.0 */ 95 UBRK_SENTENCE = 3, 96 97 #ifndef U_HIDE_DEPRECATED_API 98 /** 99 * Title Case breaks 100 * The iterator created using this type locates title boundaries as described for 101 * Unicode 3.2 only.
