Detailed Description

A mutable set of Unicode characters and multicharacter strings.

Objects of this class represent character classes used in regular expressions. A character specifies a subset of Unicode code points. Legal code points are U+0000 to U+10FFFF, inclusive.

The UnicodeSet class is not designed to be subclassed.

UnicodeSet supports two APIs. The first is the operand API that allows the caller to modify the value of a UnicodeSet object. It conforms to Java 2's java.util.Set interface, although UnicodeSet does not actually implement that interface. All methods of Set are supported, with the modification that they take a character range or single character instead of an Object, and they take a UnicodeSet instead of a Collection. The operand API may be thought of in terms of boolean logic: a boolean OR is implemented by add, a boolean AND is implemented by retain, a boolean XOR is implemented by complement taking an argument, and a boolean NOT is implemented by complement with no argument. In terms of traditional set theory function names, add is a union, retain is an intersection, remove is an asymmetric difference, and complement with no argument is a set complement with respect to the superset range MIN_VALUE-MAX_VALUE

The second API is the applyPattern()/toPattern() API from the java.text.Format-derived classes. Unlike the methods that add characters, add categories, and control the logic of the set, the method applyPattern() sets all attributes of a UnicodeSet at once, based on a string pattern.

Pattern syntax

Patterns are accepted by the constructors and the applyPattern() methods and returned by the toPattern() method. These patterns follow a syntax similar to that employed by version 8 regular expression character classes. Here are some simple examples:

[] No characters
[a] The character 'a'
[ae] The characters 'a' and 'e'
[a-e] The characters 'a' through 'e' inclusive, in Unicode code point order
[\u4E01] The character U+4E01
[a{ab}{ac}] The character 'a' and the multicharacter strings "ab" and "ac"
[\p{Lu}] All characters in the general category Uppercase Letter

Any character may be preceded by a backslash in order to remove any special meaning. White space characters, as defined by UCharacter.isWhitespace(), are ignored, unless they are escaped.

Property patterns specify a set of characters having a certain property as defined by the Unicode standard. Both the POSIX-like "[:Lu:]" and the Perl-like syntax "\\p{Lu}" are recognized. For a complete list of supported property patterns, see the User's Guide for UnicodeSet at https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/strings/unicodeset. Actual determination of property data is defined by the underlying Unicode database as implemented by UCharacter.

Patterns specify individual characters, ranges of characters, and Unicode property sets. When elements are concatenated, they specify their union. To complement a set, place a '^' immediately after the opening '['. Property patterns are inverted by modifying their delimiters; "[:^foo]" and "\\P{foo}". In any other location, '^' has no special meaning.

Since ICU 70, "[^...]", "[:^foo]", "\\P{foo}", and "[:binaryProperty=No:]" perform a “code point complement” (all code points minus the original set), removing all multicharacter strings, equivalent to .complement().removeAllStrings(). The complement() API function continues to perform a symmetric difference with all code points and thus retains all multicharacter strings.

Ranges are indicated by placing two a '-' between two characters, as in "a-z". This specifies the range of all characters from the left to the right, in Unicode order. If the left character is greater than or equal to the right character it is a syntax error. If a '-' occurs as the first character after the opening '[' or '[^', or if it occurs as the last character before the closing ']', then it is taken as a literal. Thus "[a\-b]", "[-ab]", and "[ab-]" all indicate the same set of three characters, 'a', 'b', and '-'.

Sets may be intersected using the '&' operator or the asymmetric set difference may be taken using the '-' operator, for example, "[[:L:]&[\\u0000-\\u0FFF]]" indicates the set of all Unicode letters with values less than 4096. Operators ('&' and '|') have equal precedence and bind left-to-right. Thus "[[:L:]-[a-z]-[\\u0100-\\u01FF]]" is equivalent to "[[[:L:]-[a-z]]-[\\u0100-\\u01FF]]". This only really matters for difference; intersection is commutative.

[a]The set containing 'a'
[a-z]The set containing 'a' through 'z' and all letters in between, in Unicode order
[^a-z]The set containing all characters but 'a' through 'z', that is, U+0000 through 'a'-1 and 'z'+1 through U+10FFFF
[[pat1][pat2]] The union of sets specified by pat1 and pat2
[[pat1]&[pat2]] The intersection of sets specified by pat1 and pat2
[[pat1]-[pat2]] The asymmetric difference of sets specified by pat1 and pat2
[:Lu:] or \p{Lu} The set of characters having the specified Unicode property; in this case, Unicode uppercase letters
[:^Lu:] or \P{Lu} The set of characters not having the given Unicode property

◆ applyPattern() [1/3]

UnicodeSet & icu::UnicodeSet::applyPattern ( const UnicodeString pattern,
ParsePosition pos,
uint32_t  options,
const SymbolTable symbols,
UErrorCode status 
)

Parses the given pattern, starting at the given position.

The character at pattern.charAt(pos.getIndex()) must be '[', or the parse fails. Parsing continues until the corresponding closing ']'. If a syntax error is encountered between the opening and closing brace, the parse fails. Upon return from a successful parse, the ParsePosition is updated to point to the character following the closing ']', and a StringBuffer containing a pairs list for the parsed pattern is returned. This method calls itself recursively to parse embedded subpatterns. Empties the set passed before applying the pattern. A frozen set will not be modified.

Parameters
patternthe string containing the pattern to be parsed. The portion of the string from pos.getIndex(), which must be a '[', to the corresponding closing ']', is parsed.
posupon entry, the position at which to being parsing. The character at pattern.charAt(pos.getIndex()) must be a '['. Upon return from a successful parse, pos.getIndex() is either the character after the closing ']' of the parsed pattern, or pattern.length() if the closing ']' is the last character of the pattern string.
optionsbitmask for options to apply to the pattern. Valid options are USET_IGNORE_SPACE and at most one of USET_CASE_INSENSITIVE, USET_ADD_CASE_MAPPINGS, USET_SIMPLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE. These case options are mutually exclusive.

const SymbolTable symbols,
UErrorCode status 
)

Modifies this set to represent the set specified by the given pattern, optionally ignoring Unicode Pattern_White_Space characters.

See the class description for the syntax of the pattern language. A frozen set will not be modified.

Parameters
patterna string specifying what characters are in the set
optionsbitmask for options to apply to the pattern. Valid options are USET_IGNORE_SPACE and at most one of USET_CASE_INSENSITIVE, USET_ADD_CASE_MAPPINGS, USET_SIMPLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE. These case options are mutually exclusive.
symbolsa symbol table mapping variable names to values and stand-ins to UnicodeSets; may be nullptr
statusreturns U_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT_ERROR if the pattern contains a syntax error. Empties the set passed before applying the pattern.

◆ applyPropertyAlias()

UnicodeSet & icu::UnicodeSet::applyPropertyAlias ( const UnicodeString prop,
const UnicodeString value,
UErrorCode ec 
)

Modifies this set to contain those code points which have the given value for the given property.

Prior contents of this set are lost. A frozen set will not be modified.

Parameters
propa property alias, either short or long. The name is matched loosely. See PropertyAliases.txt for names and a description of loose matching. If the value string is empty, then this string is interpreted as either a General_Category value alias, a Script value alias, a binary property alias, or a special ID. Special IDs are matched loosely and correspond to the following sets:

"ANY" = [\u0000-\U0010FFFF], "ASCII" = [\u0000-\u007F], "Assigned" = [:^Cn:].

Parameters
valuea value alias, either short or long. The name is matched loosely. See PropertyValueAliases.txt for names and a description of loose matching. In addition to aliases listed, numeric values and canonical combining classes may be expressed numerically, e.g., ("nv", "0.5") or ("ccc", "220"). The value string may also be empty.

◆ begin()

U_HEADER_NESTED_NAMESPACE::USetElementIterator icu::UnicodeSet::begin ( ) const
inline

Returns a C++ iterator for iterating over all of the elements of this set.

Convenient all-in one iteration, but creates a UnicodeString for each code point or string. (Similar to how Java UnicodeSet is an Iterable<String>.)

Code points are returned first, then empty and multi-character strings.

UnicodeSet set(u"[abcçカ🚴{}{abc}{de}]", errorCode);
for (auto el : set) {
std::string u8;
printf("set.string length %ld \"%s\"\n", (long)el.length(), el.toUTF8String(u8).c_str());
}
"Smart pointer" base class; do not use directly: use LocalPointer etc.

◆ charAt()

UChar32 icu::UnicodeSet::charAt ( int32_t  index) const

Returns the character at the given index within this set, where the set is ordered by ascending code point.

If the index is out of range for characters, returns (UChar32)-1. The inverse of this method is indexOf().

For iteration, this is slower than UnicodeSetIterator or getRangeCount()/getRangeStart()/getRangeEnd(), because for each call it skips linearly over index characters in the ranges.

Parameters
indexan index from 0..size()-1
Returns
the character at the given index, or (UChar32)-1.
Stable:

◆ closeOver()

UnicodeSet & icu::UnicodeSet::closeOver ( int32_t  attribute)

Close this set over the given attribute.

For the attribute USET_CASE_INSENSITIVE, the result is to modify this set so that:

  1. For each character or string 'a' in this set, all strings or characters 'b' such that foldCase(a) == foldCase(b) are added to this set.
  2. For each string 'e' in the resulting set, if e != foldCase(e), 'e' will be removed.

Example: [aq\u00DF{Bc}{bC}{Fi}] => [aAqQ\u00DF\uFB01{ss}{bc}{fi}]

(Here foldCase(x) refers to the operation u_strFoldCase, and a == b denotes that the contents are the same, not pointer comparison.)

A frozen set will not be modified.

Parameters
attributebitmask for attributes to close over. Valid options: At most one of USET_CASE_INSENSITIVE, USET_ADD_CASE_MAPPINGS, USET_SIMPLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE. These case options are mutually exclusive. Unrelated options bits are ignored.
Returns

◆ serialize()

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::serialize ( uint16_t dest,
int32_t  destCapacity,
UErrorCode ec 
) const

Serializes this set into an array of 16-bit integers.

Serialization (currently) only records the characters in the set; multicharacter strings are ignored.

The array has following format (each line is one 16-bit integer):

length = (n+2*m) | (m!=0?0x8000:0) bmpLength = n; present if m!=0 bmp[0] bmp[1] ... bmp[n-1] supp-high[0] supp-low[0] supp-high[1] supp-low[1] ... supp-high[m-1] supp-low[m-1]

The array starts with a header. After the header are n bmp code points, then m supplementary code points. Either n or m or both may be zero. n+2*m is always <= 0x7FFF.

If there are no supplementary characters (if m==0) then the header is one 16-bit integer, 'length', with value n.

If there are supplementary characters (if m!=0) then the header is two 16-bit integers. The first, 'length', has value (n+2*m)|0x8000. The second, 'bmpLength', has value n.

After the header the code points are stored in ascending order. Supplementary code points are stored as most significant 16 bits followed by least significant 16 bits.

Parameters
destpointer to buffer of destCapacity 16-bit integers. May be nullptr only if destCapacity is zero.
destCapacitysize of dest, or zero. Must not be negative.
ecerror code. Will be set to U_INDEX_OUTOFBOUNDS_ERROR if n+2*m > 0x7FFF. Will be set to U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR if n+2*m+(m!=0?2:1) > destCapacity.

virtual int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::size ( ) const
virtual

Returns the number of elements in this set (its cardinality).

Note than the elements of a set may include both individual codepoints and strings.

This is slower than getRangeCount() because it counts the code points of all ranges.

Returns
the number of elements in this set (its cardinality).

◆ span() [1/2]

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::span ( const char16_t s,
int32_t  length,
USetSpanCondition  spanCondition 
) const

Returns the length of the initial substring of the input string which consists only of characters and strings that are contained in this set (USET_SPAN_CONTAINED, USET_SPAN_SIMPLE), or only of characters and strings that are not contained in this set (USET_SPAN_NOT_CONTAINED).

See USetSpanCondition for details. Similar to the strspn() C library function. Unpaired surrogates are treated according to contains() of their surrogate code points. This function works faster with a frozen set and with a non-negative string length argument.

Parameters
sstart of the string
lengthof the string; can be -1 for NUL-terminated
spanConditionspecifies the containment condition
Returns
the length of the initial substring according to the spanCondition; 0 if the start of the string does not fit the spanCondition
Stable:
ICU 3.8

USetSpanCondition

◆ span() [2/2]

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::span ( const UnicodeString s,
int32_t  start,
USetSpanCondition  spanCondition 
) const
inline

Returns the end of the substring of the input string according to the USetSpanCondition.

Same as start+span(s.getBuffer()+start, s.length()-start, spanCondition) after pinning start to 0<=start<=s.length().

Parameters
sthe string
startthe start index in the string for the span operation
spanConditionspecifies the containment condition
Returns
the exclusive end of the substring according to the spanCondition; the substring s.tempSubStringBetween(start, end) fulfills the spanCondition

◆ spanBack() [1/2]

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::spanBack ( const char16_t s,
int32_t  length,
USetSpanCondition  spanCondition 
) const

Returns the start of the trailing substring of the input string which consists only of characters and strings that are contained in this set (USET_SPAN_CONTAINED, USET_SPAN_SIMPLE), or only of characters and strings that are not contained in this set (USET_SPAN_NOT_CONTAINED).

See USetSpanCondition for details. Unpaired surrogates are treated according to contains() of their surrogate code points. This function works faster with a frozen set and with a non-negative string length argument.

Parameters
sstart of the string
lengthof the string; can be -1 for NUL-terminated
spanConditionspecifies the containment condition
Returns
the start of the trailing substring according to the spanCondition; the string length if the end of the string does not fit the spanCondition

◆ spanBack() [2/2]

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::spanBack ( const UnicodeString s,
int32_t  limit,
USetSpanCondition  spanCondition 
) const
inline

Returns the start of the substring of the input string according to the USetSpanCondition.

Same as spanBack(s.getBuffer(), limit, spanCondition) after pinning limit to 0<=end<=s.length().

Parameters
sthe string
limitthe exclusive-end index in the string for the span operation (use s.length() or INT32_MAX for spanning back from the end of the string)
spanConditionspecifies the containment condition
Returns
the start of the substring according to the spanCondition; the substring s.tempSubStringBetween(start, limit) fulfills the spanCondition

◆ spanBackUTF8()

int32_t icu::UnicodeSet::spanBackUTF8 ( const char s,
int32_t  length,
USetSpanCondition  spanCondition 
) const

Returns the start of the trailing substring of the input string which consists only of characters and strings that are contained in this set (USET_SPAN_CONTAINED, USET_SPAN_SIMPLE), or only of characters and strings that are not contained in this set (USET_SPAN_NOT_CONTAINED).

See USetSpanCondition for details. Malformed byte sequences are treated according to contains(0xfffd). This function works faster with a frozen set and with a non-negative string length argument.

Parameters
sstart of the string (UTF-8)
lengthof the string; can be -1 for NUL-terminated
spanConditionspecifies the containment condition
Returns
the start of the trailing substring according to the spanCondition; the string length if the end of the string does not fit the spanCondition

◆ toPattern()

virtual UnicodeString & icu::UnicodeSet::toPattern ( UnicodeString result,
UBool  escapeUnprintable = false 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns a string representation of this set.

If the result of calling this function is passed to a UnicodeSet constructor, it will produce another set that is equal to this one. A frozen set will not be modified.

Parameters
resultthe string to receive the rules. Previous contents will be deleted.
escapeUnprintableif true then convert unprintable character to their hex escape representations, \uxxxx or \Uxxxxxxxx. Unprintable characters are those other than U+000A, U+0020..U+007E.
