Detailed Description

A concrete subclass of CharacterIterator that iterates over the characters (code units or code points) in a UChar array.

It's possible not only to create an iterator that iterates over an entire UChar array, but also to create one that iterates over only a subrange of a UChar array (iterators over different subranges of the same UChar array don't compare equal).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

UCharCharacterIterator::UCharCharacterIterator const UChar textPtr,
int32_t  length
 

Create an iterator over the UChar array referred to by "textPtr".

The iteration range is 0 to length-1. text is only aliased, not adopted (the destructor will not delete it).

UCharCharacterIterator::UCharCharacterIterator const UChar textPtr,
int32_t  length,
int32_t  position
 

Create an iterator over the UChar array referred to by "textPtr".

The iteration range is 0 to length-1. text is only aliased, not adopted (the destructor will not delete it). The starting position is specified by "position". If "position" is outside the valid iteration range, the behavior of this object is undefined.

UCharCharacterIterator::UCharCharacterIterator const UChar textPtr,
int32_t  length,
int32_t  textBegin,
int32_t  textEnd,
int32_t  position
 

Create an iterator over the UChar array referred to by "textPtr".

The iteration range is 0 to end-1. text is only aliased, not adopted (the destructor will not delete it). The starting position is specified by "position". If begin and end do not form a valid iteration range or "position" is outside the valid iteration range, the behavior of this object is undefined.

UCharCharacterIterator::UCharCharacterIterator const UCharCharacterIterator that  ) 
 

Copy constructor.

The new iterator iterates over the same range of the same string as "that", and its initial position is the same as "that"'s current position.

UCharCharacterIterator::~UCharCharacterIterator  ) 
 

Destructor.


Member Function Documentation

virtual CharacterIterator* UCharCharacterIterator::clone void   )  const [virtual]
 

Returns a new UCharCharacterIterator referring to the same character in the same range of the same string as this one.

Implements CharacterIterator.

virtual UChar32 UCharCharacterIterator::first32 void   )  [virtual]
 

Sets the iterator to refer to the first code point in its iteration range, and returns that code unit, This can be used to begin an iteration with next32().

Note that an iteration with next32PostInc(), beginning with, e.g., setToStart() or firstPostInc(), is more efficient.

Implements CharacterIterator.

virtual UChar32 UCharCharacterIterator::first32PostInc void   )  [virtual]
 

Sets the iterator to refer to the first code point in its iteration range, returns that code point, and moves the position to the second code point.

This is an alternative to setToStart() for forward iteration with next32PostInc().

Reimplemented from CharacterIterator.

virtual UChar UCharCharacterIterator::firstPostInc void   )  [virtual]
 

Sets the iterator to refer to the first code unit in its iteration range, returns that code unit, and moves the position to the second code unit.

This is an alternative to setToStart() for forward iteration with nextPostInc().

Reimplemented from CharacterIterator.

virtual void UCharCharacterIterator::getText UnicodeString result  )  [virtual]
 

Copies the UChar array under iteration into the UnicodeString referred to by "result".

Even if this iterator iterates across only a part of this string, the whole string is copied.

Parameters:
result Receives a copy of the text under iteration.

Implements CharacterIterator.

Reimplemented in StringCharacterIterator.

Generates a hash code for this iterator.
