Return 27 value follows the same conventions as found in the @code{strverscmp} 28 function. In fact, if @var{s1} and @var{s2} contain no digits, 29 @code{strverscmp} behaves like @code{strcmp}. 30 31 Basically, we compare strings normally (character by character), until 32 we find a digit in each string - then we enter a special comparison 33 mode, where each sequence of digits is taken as a whole. If we reach the 34 end of these two parts without noticing a difference, we return to the 35 standard comparison mode. There are two types of numeric parts: 36 "integral" and "fractional" (those begin with a '0'). The types 37 of the numeric parts affect the way we sort them: 38 39 @itemize @bullet 40 @item 41 integral/integral: we compare values as you would expect. 42 43 @item 44 fractional/integral: the fractional part is less than the integral one. 45 Again, no surprise. 46 47 @item 48 fractional/fractional: the things become a bit more complex. 49 If the common prefix contains only leading zeroes, the longest part is less 50 than the other one; else the comparison behaves normally. 51 @end itemize 52 53 @smallexample 54 strverscmp ("no digit", "no digit") 55 @result{} 0 // @r{same behavior as strcmp.} 56 strverscmp ("item#99", "item#100") 57 @result{} <0 // @r{same prefix, but 99 < 100.} 58 strverscmp ("alpha1", "alpha001") 59 @result{} >0 // @r{fractional part inferior to integral one.} 60 strverscmp ("part1_f012", "part1_f01") 61 @result{} >0 // @r{two fractional parts.} 62 strverscmp ("foo.009", "foo.0") 63 @result{} <0 // @r{idem, but with leading zeroes only.} 64 @end smallexample 65 66 This function is especially useful when dealing with filename sorting, 67 because filenames frequently hold indices/version numbers. 68 @end deftypefun 69 70 */ 71 72 /* states: S_N: normal, S_I: comparing integral part, S_F: comparing 73 fractional parts, S_Z: idem but with leading Zeroes only */ 74 #define S_N 0x0 75 #define S_I 0x4 76 #define S_F 0x8 77 #define S_Z 0xC 78 79 /* result_type: CMP: return diff; LEN: compare using len_diff/diff */ 80 #define CMP 2 81 #define LEN 3 82 83 84 /* Compare S1 and S2 as strings holding indices/version numbers, 85 returning less than, equal to or greater than zero if S1 is less than, 86 equal to or greater than S2 (for more info, see the Glibc texinfo doc). */ 87 88 int 89 strverscmp (const char *s1, const char *s2) 90 { 91 const unsigned char *p1 = (const unsigned char *) s1; 92 const unsigned char *p2 = (const unsigned char *) s2; 93 unsigned char c1, c2; 94 int state; 95 int diff; 96 97 /* Symbol(s) 0 [1-9] others (padding) 98 Transition (10) 0 (01) d (00) x (11) - */ 99 static const unsigned int next_state[] = 100 { 101 /* state x d 0 - */ 102 /* S_N */ S_N, S_I, S_Z, S_N, 103 /* S_I */ S_N, S_I, S_I, S_I, 104 /* S_F */ S_N, S_F, S_F, S_F, 105 /* S_Z */ S_N, S_F, S_Z, S_Z 106 }; 107 108 static const int result_type[] = 109 { 110 /* state x/x x/d x/0 x/- d/x d/d d/0 d/- 111 0/x 0/d 0/0 0/- -/x -/d -/0 -/- */ 112 113 /* S_N */ CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, LEN, CMP, CMP, 114 CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, 115 /* S_I */ CMP, -1, -1, CMP, +1, LEN, LEN, CMP, 116 +1, LEN, LEN, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, 117 /* S_F */ CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, LEN, CMP, CMP, 118 CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, CMP, 119 /* S_Z */ CMP, +1, +1, CMP, -1, CMP, CMP, CMP, 120 -1, CMP, CMP, CMP 121 }; 122 123 if (p1 == p2) 124 return 0; 125 126 c1 = *p1++; 127 c2 = *p2++; 128 /* Hint: '0' is a digit too. */ 129 state = S_N | ((c1 == '0') + (isdigit (c1) != 0)); 130 131 while ((diff = c1 - c2) == 0 && c1 != '\0') 132 { 133 state = next_state[state]; 134 c1 = *p1++; 135 c2 = *p2++; 136 state |= (c1 == '0') + (isdigit (c1) != 0); 137 } 138 139 state = result_type[state << 2 | (((c2 == '0') + (isdigit (c2) != 0)))]; 140 141 switch (state) 142 { 143 case CMP: 144 return diff; 145 146 case LEN: 147 while (isdigit (*p1++)) 148 if (!isdigit (*p2++)) 149 return 1; 150 151 return isdigit (*p2) ? -1 : diff; 152 153 default: 154 return state; 155 } 156 } 157
