Crate icu::properties

Expand description

Definitions of Unicode Properties and APIs for retrieving property data in an appropriate data structure.

This module is published as its own crate (icu_properties) and as part of the icu crate. See the latter for more details on the ICU4X project.

APIs that return a CodePointSetData exist for binary properties and certain enumerated properties. See the sets module for more details.

APIs that return a CodePointMapData exist for certain enumerated properties. See the maps module for more details.

Examples

Property data as `CodePointSetData`s

use icu::properties::{maps, sets, GeneralCategory};

// A binary property as a `CodePointSetData`

let data = sets::load_emoji(&icu_testdata::unstable())
    .expect("The data should be valid");
let emoji = data.as_borrowed();

assert!(emoji.contains('🎃')); // U+1F383 JACK-O-LANTERN
assert!(!emoji.contains('木')); // U+6728

// An individual enumerated property value as a `CodePointSetData`

let data = maps::load_general_category(&icu_testdata::unstable())
    .expect("The data should be valid");
let gc = data.as_borrowed();
let line_sep_data = gc.get_set_for_value(GeneralCategory::LineSeparator);
let line_sep = line_sep_data.as_borrowed();

assert!(line_sep.contains32(0x2028));
assert!(!line_sep.contains32(0x2029));

Property data as `CodePointMapData`s

use icu::properties::{maps, Script};

let map = maps::load_script(&icu_testdata::unstable())
    .expect("The data should be valid");
let script = map.as_borrowed();

assert_eq!(script.get('🎃'), Script::Common); // U+1F383 JACK-O-LANTERN
assert_eq!(script.get('木'), Script::Han); // U+6728
