     21  * \brief C API: Code point macros
     22  *
     23  * This file defines macros for checking whether a code point is
     24  * a surrogate or a non-character etc.
     25  *
     26  * If U_NO_DEFAULT_INCLUDE_UTF_HEADERS is 0 then utf.h is included by utypes.h
     27  * and itself includes utf8.h and utf16.h after some
     28  * common definitions.
     29  * If U_NO_DEFAULT_INCLUDE_UTF_HEADERS is 1 then each of these headers must be
     30  * included explicitly if their definitions are used.
     31  *
     32  * utf8.h and utf16.h define macros for efficiently getting code points
     33  * in and out of UTF-8/16 strings.
     34  * utf16.h macros have "U16_" prefixes.
     35  * utf8.h defines similar macros with "U8_" prefixes for UTF-8 string handling.
     36  *
     37  * ICU mostly processes 16-bit Unicode strings.
     38  * Most of the time, such strings are well-formed UTF-16.
     39  * Single, unpaired surrogates must be handled as well, and are treated in ICU
     40  * like regular code points where possible.
     41  * (Pairs of surrogate code points are indistinguishable from supplementary
     42  * code points encoded as pairs of supplementary code units.)
     43  *
     44  * In fact, almost all Unicode code points in normal text (>99%)
     45  * are on the BMP (<=U+ffff) and even <=U+d7ff.
     46  * ICU functions handle supplementary code points (U+10000..U+10ffff)
     47  * but are optimized for the much more frequently occurring BMP code points.
     48  *
     49  * umachine.h defines UChar to be an unsigned 16-bit integer.
     50  * Since ICU 59, ICU uses char16_t in C++, UChar only in C,
     51  * and defines UChar=char16_t by default. See the UChar API docs for details.
     52  *
     53  * UChar32 is defined to be a signed 32-bit integer (int32_t), large enough for a 21-bit
     54  * Unicode code point (Unicode scalar value, 0..0x10ffff) and U_SENTINEL (-1).
     55  * Before ICU 2.4, the definition of UChar32 was similarly platform-dependent as
     56  * the definition of UChar. For details see the documentation for UChar32 itself.
     57  *
     58  * utf.h defines a small number of C macros for single Unicode code points.
     59  * These are simple checks for surrogates and non-characters.
     60  * For actual Unicode character properties see uchar.h.
     61  *
     62  * By default, string operations must be done with error checking in case
     63  * a string is not well-formed UTF-16 or UTF-8.
     64  *
     65  * The U16_ macros detect if a surrogate code unit is unpaired
     66  * (lead unit without trail unit or vice versa) and just return the unit itself
     67  * as the code point.
     68  *
     69  * The U8_ macros detect illegal byte sequences and return a negative value.
     70  * Starting with ICU 60, the observable length of a single illegal byte sequence
     71  * skipped by one of these macros follows the Unicode 6+ recommendation
     72  * which is consistent with the W3C Encoding Standard.
     73  *
     74  * There are ..._OR_FFFD versions of both U16_ and U8_ macros
     75  * that return U+FFFD for illegal code unit sequences.
     76  *
     77  * The regular "safe" macros require that the initial, passed-in string index
     78  * is within bounds. They only check the index when they read more than one
     79  * code unit. This is usually done with code similar to the following loop:
     80  * <pre>while(i<length) {
     81  *   U16_NEXT(s, i, length, c);
     82  *   // use c
     83  * }</pre>
     84  *
     85  * When it is safe to assume that text is well-formed UTF-16
     86  * (does not contain single, unpaired surrogates), then one can use
     87  * U16_..._UNSAFE macros.
     88  * These do not check for proper code unit sequences or truncated text and may
     89  * yield wrong results or even cause a crash if they are used with "malformed"
     90  * text.
     91  * In practice, U16_..._UNSAFE macros will produce slightly less code but
     92  * should not be faster because the processing is only different when a
     93  * surrogate code unit is detected, which will be rare.
     94  *
     95  * Similarly for UTF-8, there are "safe" macros without a suffix,
     96  * and U8_..._UNSAFE versions.
     97  * The performance differences are much larger here because UTF-8 provides so
     98  * many opportunities for malformed sequences.
     99  * The unsafe UTF-8 macros are entirely implemented inside the macro definitions
    100  * and are fast, while the safe UTF-8 macros call functions for some complicated cases.
    101  *
    102  * Unlike with UTF-16, malformed sequences cannot be expressed with distinct
    103  * code point values (0..U+10ffff). They are indicated with negative values instead.
    104  *
    105  * For more information see the ICU User Guide Strings chapter
    106  * (http://userguide.icu-project.org/strings).
    107  *
    108  * <em>Usage:</em>
    109  * ICU coding guidelines for if() statements should be followed when using these macros.
    110  * Compound statements (curly braces {}) must be used  for if-else-while...
    111  * bodies and all macro statements should be terminated with semicolon.
    112  *
