DESCRIPTION

Unicode is SPVM Unicode utilities. This module privides the methods to convert UTF-8 bytes to/from Unicode codepoints.

CLASS METHODS

ERROR_INVALID_UTF8

static method INVALID_UTF8 : int ();

return -2. this means uchar function find invalid utf8.

uchar

static method uchar : int ($string : string, $offset_ref : int*);

Get a Unicode codepoint from UTF-8 string with the byte offset and proceed the offset to next UTF-8 character position.

If offset is over the string length, this method returns -1.

If invalid UTF-8 character is found, this method returns -2. This is the same value of the return value of ERROR_INVALID_UTF8 method.

uchar_to_utf8

static method uchar_to_utf8 : string ($unicode_code_point : int);

Convert a Unicode codepoint to a UTF-8 character.

If the argument value is invalid Unicode code point, this method returns undef.

utf8_to_utf16

static method utf8_to_utf16 : short[] ($utf8_string : string) {

Convert a UTF-8 string to a UTF-16 string.

utf16_to_utf8

static method utf16_to_utf8 : string ($utf16_string : short[]) {

Convert a UTF-16 string to a UTF-8 string.

utf32_to_utf16

static method utf32_to_utf16 : short[] ($utf32_string : int[]);

Convert a UTF-32 string to a UTF-16 string.

utf16_to_utf32

static method utf16_to_utf32 : int[] ($utf16_string : short[]);

Convert a UTF-16 string to UTF-32 string.
