## Detailed Description

Functions associated with handling Unicode characters.

## Enumeration Type Documentation

enum Xapian::Unicode::category

Each Unicode character is in exactly one of these categories.

## Function Documentation

unsigned Xapian::Unicode::nonascii_to_utf8 | ( | unsigned | ch,
|  | char * | buf
| ) |  |

Convert a single non-ASCII Unicode character to UTF-8.

This is intended mainly as a helper method for to_utf8().

Parameters

  ch | The character (which must be > 128) to write to buf.
  buf | The buffer to write the character to - it must have space for (at least) 4 bytes.

Returns
  The length of the resultant UTF-8 character in bytes.

unsigned Xapian::Unicode::to_utf8 | ( | unsigned | ch,
|  | char * | buf
| ) |  |
| inline

Parameters

  ch | The character to write to buf.
  buf | The buffer to write the character to - it must have space for (at least) 4 bytes.

Returns
  The length of the resultant UTF-8 character in bytes.
