package sun.text.normalizer;

Unicode normalization functionality for standard Unicode normalization or for using custom mapping tables. All instances of this class are unmodifiable/immutable. The Normalizer2 class is not intended for public subclassing.

The primary functions are to produce a normalized string and to detect whether a string is already normalized. The most commonly used normalization forms are those defined in http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr15/ However, this API supports additional normalization forms for specialized purposes. For example, NFKC_Casefold is provided via getInstance("nfkc_cf", COMPOSE) and can be used in implementations of UTS #46.

Not only are the standard compose and decompose modes supplied, but additional modes are provided as documented in the Mode enum.

Some of the functions in this class identify normalization boundaries. At a normalization boundary, the portions of the string before it and starting from it do not interact and can be handled independently.

The spanQuickCheckYes() stops at a normalization boundary. When the goal is a normalized string, then the text before the boundary can be copied, and the remainder can be processed with normalizeSecondAndAppend().

The hasBoundaryBefore(), hasBoundaryAfter() and isInert() functions test whether a character is guaranteed to be at a normalization boundary, regardless of context. This is used for moving from one normalization boundary to the next or preceding boundary, and for performing iterative normalization.

Iterative normalization is useful when only a small portion of a longer string needs to be processed. For example, in ICU, iterative normalization is used by the NormalizationTransliterator (to avoid replacing already-normalized text) and ucol_nextSortKeyPart() (to process only the substring for which sort key bytes are computed).

The set of normalization boundaries returned by these functions may not be complete: There may be more boundaries that could be returned. Different functions may return different boundaries.

Gets the decomposition mapping of c. Roughly equivalent to normalizing the String form of c on a DECOMPOSE Normalizer2 instance, but much faster, and except that this function returns null if c does not have a decomposition mapping in this instance's data. This function is independent of the mode of the Normalizer2.
Params:

Gets the combining class of c. The default implementation returns 0 but all standard implementations return the Unicode Canonical_Combining_Class value.

Tests if the string is normalized. Internally, in cases where the quickCheck() method would return "maybe" (which is only possible for the two COMPOSE modes) this method resolves to "yes" or "no" to provide a definitive result, at the cost of doing more work in those cases.
Params:
  • s – input string
Returns:true if s is normalized
@stableICU 4.4
/** * Tests if the string is normalized. * Internally, in cases where the quickCheck() method would return "maybe" * (which is only possible for the two COMPOSE modes) this method * resolves to "yes" or "no" to provide a definitive result, * at the cost of doing more work in those cases. * @param s input string * @return true if s is normalized * @stable ICU 4.4 */
public abstract boolean isNormalized(CharSequence s);
Returns the end of the normalized substring of the input string. In other words, with end=spanQuickCheckYes(s); the substring s.subSequence(0, end) will pass the quick check with a "yes" result.

The returned end index is usually one or more characters before the "no" or "maybe" character: The end index is at a normalization boundary. (See the class documentation for more about normalization boundaries.)

When the goal is a normalized string and most input strings are expected to be normalized already, then call this method, and if it returns a prefix shorter than the input string, copy that prefix and use normalizeSecondAndAppend() for the remainder.

Params:
  • s – input string
Returns:"yes" span end index
@stableICU 4.4
/** * Returns the end of the normalized substring of the input string. * In other words, with <code>end=spanQuickCheckYes(s);</code> * the substring <code>s.subSequence(0, end)</code> * will pass the quick check with a "yes" result. * <p> * The returned end index is usually one or more characters before the * "no" or "maybe" character: The end index is at a normalization boundary. * (See the class documentation for more about normalization boundaries.) * <p> * When the goal is a normalized string and most input strings are expected * to be normalized already, then call this method, * and if it returns a prefix shorter than the input string, * copy that prefix and use normalizeSecondAndAppend() for the remainder. * @param s input string * @return "yes" span end index * @stable ICU 4.4 */
public abstract int spanQuickCheckYes(CharSequence s);
Tests if the character always has a normalization boundary before it, regardless of context. If true, then the character does not normalization-interact with preceding characters. In other words, a string containing this character can be normalized by processing portions before this character and starting from this character independently. This is used for iterative normalization. See the class documentation for details.
Params:
  • c – character to test
Returns:true if c has a normalization boundary before it
