Use the iterator to return the * ordering priority of the positioned character. The ordering priority of a * character, which we refer to as a key, defines how a character is collated * in the given collation object. * For example, consider the following in Slovak and in traditional Spanish collation: *
* . "ca" -> the first key is key('c') and second key is key('a'). * . "cha" -> the first key is key('ch') and second key is key('a'). ** And in German phonebook collation, *
* . "*b"-> the first key is key('a'), the second key is key('e'), and * . the third key is key('b'). *
Example of the iterator usage: (without error checking) *
* . void CollationElementIterator_Example() * . { * . UChar *s; * . t_int32 order, primaryOrder; * . UCollationElements *c; * . UCollatorOld *coll; * . UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; * . s=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (strlen("This is a test")+1) ); * . u_uastrcpy(s, "This is a test"); * . coll = ucol_open(NULL, &success); * . c = ucol_openElements(coll, str, u_strlen(str), &status); * . order = ucol_next(c, &success); * . ucol_reset(c); * . order = ucol_prev(c, &success); * . free(s); * . ucol_close(coll); * . ucol_closeElements(c); * . } **
* ucol_next() returns the collation order of the next. * ucol_prev() returns the collation order of the previous character. * The Collation Element Iterator moves only in one direction between calls to * ucol_reset. That is, ucol_next() and ucol_prev can not be inter-used. * Whenever ucol_prev is to be called after ucol_next() or vice versa, * ucol_reset has to be called first to reset the status, shifting pointers to * either the end or the start of the string. Hence at the next call of * ucol_prev or ucol_next, the first or last collation order will be returned. * If a change of direction is done without a ucol_reset, the result is * undefined. * The result of a forward iterate (ucol_next) and reversed result of the * backward iterate (ucol_prev) on the same string are equivalent, if * collation orders with the value 0 are ignored. * Character based on the comparison level of the collator. A collation order * consists of primary order, secondary order and tertiary order. The data * type of the collation order is int32_t. * * @see UCollator */ /** * Open the collation elements for a string. * * @param coll The collator containing the desired collation rules. * @param text The text to iterate over. * @param textLength The number of characters in text, or -1 if null-terminated * @param status A pointer to a UErrorCode to receive any errors. * @return a struct containing collation element information * @stable ICU 2.0 */ U_STABLE UCollationElements* U_EXPORT2 ucol_openElements(const UCollator *coll, const UChar *text, int32_t textLength, UErrorCode *status); /** * get a hash code for a key...
