"Pretty Good Bidi Algorithm" API
The PGBA (Pretty Good Bidi Algorithm) is an effective alternative to the
Unicode BiDi algorithm. It currently provides only implicit reordering and
does not yet support explicit reordering codes that the Unicode BiDi algorithm
supports. In addition to reordering, the PGBA includes cursor movement
support for both visual and logical navigation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#define UCPGBA_LTR 0
#define UCPGBA_RTL 1
These macros appear in the `direction' field of the data structures.
#define UCPGBA_CURSOR_VISUAL 0
#define UCPGBA_CURSOR_LOGICAL 1
These macros are used to set the cursor movement for each reordered string.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ucstring_t *ucstring_create(unsigned long *source, unsigned long start,
unsigned long end, int default_direction,
int cursor_motion)
This function will create a reordered string by using the implicit
directionality of the characters in the specified substring.
The `default_direction' parameter should be one of UCPGBA_LTR or UCPGBA_RTL
and is used only in cases where a string contains no characters with strong
directionality.
The `cursor_motion' parameter should be one of UCPGBA_CURSOR_VISUAL or
UCPGBA_CURSOR_LOGICAL, and is used to specify the initial cursor motion
behavior. This behavior can be switched at any time using
ustring_set_cursor_motion().
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void ucstring_free(ucstring_t *string)
This function will deallocate the memory used by the string, incuding the
string itself.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void ucstring_cursor_info(ustring_t *string, int *direction,
unsigned long *position)
This function will return the text position of the internal cursor and the
directionality of the text at that position. The position returned is the
original text position of the character.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucstring_set_cursor_motion(ucstring_t *string, int cursor_motion)
This function will change the cursor motion type and return the previous
cursor motion type.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucstring_cursor_right(ucstring_t *string, int count)
This function will move the internal cursor to the right according to the
type of cursor motion set for the string.
If no cursor motion is performed, it returns 0. Otherwise it will return a
1.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int ucstring_cursor_left(ucstring_t *string, int count)
This function will move the internal cursor to the left according to the
type of cursor motion set for the string.
If no cursor motion is performed, it returns 0. Otherwise it will return a
1.
