## Detailed Description

C API: UConverter predefined error callbacks.

## Error Behaviour Functions

Defines some error behaviour functions called by ucnv_{from,to}Unicode These are provided as part of ICU and many are stable, but they can also be considered only as an example of what can be done with callbacks. You may of course write your own.

If you want to write your own, you may also find the functions from ucnv_cb.h useful when writing your own callbacks.

These functions, although public, should NEVER be called directly. They should be used as parameters to the ucnv_setFromUCallback and ucnv_setToUCallback functions, to set the behaviour of a converter when it encounters ILLEGAL/UNMAPPED/INVALID sequences.

usage example: 'STOP' doesn't need any context, but newContext could be set to something other than 'NULL' if needed. The available contexts in this header can modify the default behavior of the callback.

UErrorCode err = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UConverter *myConverter = ucnv_open("ibm-949", &err);
const void *oldContext;
UConverterFromUCallback oldAction;
if (U_SUCCESS(err))
{
ucnv_setFromUCallBack(myConverter,
UCNV_FROM_U_CALLBACK_STOP,
NULL,
&oldAction,
&oldContext,
&status);
}
ucnv_setFromUCallBack
U_CAPI void ucnv_setFromUCallBack(UConverter *converter, UConverterFromUCallback newAction, const void *newContext, UConverterFromUCallback *oldAction, const void **oldContext, UErrorCode *err)
Changes the current callback function used by the converter when an illegal or invalid sequence is fo...
ucnv_open
U_CAPI UConverter * ucnv_open(const char *converterName, UErrorCode *err)
Creates a UConverter object with the name of a coded character set specified as a C string.
UConverterFromUCallback
void(* UConverterFromUCallback)(const void *context, UConverterFromUnicodeArgs *args, const UChar *codeUnits, int32_t length, UChar32 codePoint, UConverterCallbackReason reason, UErrorCode *pErrorCode)
Function pointer for error callback in the unicode to codepage direction.

UConverter
struct UConverter UConverter
Definition: ucnv_err.h:96
UCNV_FROM_U_CALLBACK_STOP
U_CAPI void UCNV_FROM_U_CALLBACK_STOP(const void *context, UConverterFromUnicodeArgs *fromUArgs, const UChar *codeUnits, int32_t length, UChar32 codePoint, UConverterCallbackReason reason, UErrorCode *err)

NULL
#define NULL
Define NULL if necessary, to nullptr for C++ and to ((void *)0) for C.
Definition: utypes.h:203
UErrorCode
UErrorCode
Standard ICU4C error code type, a substitute for exceptions.
Definition: utypes.h:509
U_ZERO_ERROR
@ U_ZERO_ERROR
No error, no warning.
Definition: utypes.h:544
U_SUCCESS
#define U_SUCCESS(x)
Does the error code indicate success?
Definition: utypes.h:822

The code above tells "myConverter" to stop when it encounters an ILLEGAL/TRUNCATED/INVALID sequences when it is used to convert from Unicode -> Codepage. The behavior from Codepage to Unicode is not changed, and ucnv_setToUCallBack would need to be called in order to change that behavior too.

Here is an example with a context:

UErrorCode err = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UConverter *myConverter = ucnv_open("ibm-949", &err);
const void *oldContext;
UConverterFromUCallback oldAction;
if (U_SUCCESS(err))
{
ucnv_setToUCallBack(myConverter,
UCNV_TO_U_CALLBACK_SUBSTITUTE,
UCNV_SUB_STOP_ON_ILLEGAL,
&oldAction,
&oldContext,
&status);
}
ucnv_setToUCallBack
U_CAPI void ucnv_setToUCallBack(UConverter *converter, UConverterToUCallback newAction, const void *newContext, UConverterToUCallback *oldAction, const void **oldContext, UErrorCode *err)
Changes the callback function used by the converter when an illegal or invalid sequence is found.
UCNV_TO_U_CALLBACK_SUBSTITUTE
U_CAPI void UCNV_TO_U_CALLBACK_SUBSTITUTE(const void *context, UConverterToUnicodeArgs *toUArgs, const char *codeUnits, int32_t length, UConverterCallbackReason reason, UErrorCode *err)

UCNV_SUB_STOP_ON_ILLEGAL
#define UCNV_SUB_STOP_ON_ILLEGAL
FROM_U, TO_U context options for sub callback.
Definition: ucnv_err.h:102

The code above tells "myConverter" to stop when it encounters an ILLEGAL/TRUNCATED/INVALID sequences when it is used to convert from Codepage -> Unicode. Any unmapped and legal characters will be substituted to be the default substitution character.

Enumerator
UCNV_UNASSIGNED | The code point is unassigned. The error code U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND will be set.
UCNV_ILLEGAL | The code point is illegal. For example, \x81\x2E is illegal in SJIS because \x2E is not a valid trail byte for the \x81 lead byte. Also, starting with Unicode 3.0.1, non-shortest byte sequences in UTF-8 (like \xC1\xA1 instead of \x61 for U+0061) are also illegal, not just irregular. The error code U_ILLEGAL_CHAR_FOUND will be set.
UCNV_IRREGULAR | The codepoint is not a regular sequence in the encoding. For example, \xED\xA0\x80..\xED\xBF\xBF are irregular UTF-8 byte sequences for single surrogate code points. The error code U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND will be set.
UCNV_RESET | The callback is called with this reason when a 'reset' has occurred. Callback should reset all state.
UCNV_CLOSE | Called when the converter is closed. The callback should release any allocated memory.
UCNV_CLONE | Called when ucnv_safeClone() is called on the converter. the pointer available as the 'context' is an alias to the original converters' context pointer. If the context must be owned by the new converter, the callback must clone the data and call ucnv_setFromUCallback (or setToUCallback) with the correct pointer. Stable: ICU 2.2
