31  * \brief C API: Bidi algorithm
32  *
33  * <h2>Bidi algorithm for ICU</h2>
34  *
35  * This is an implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.
36  * The algorithm is defined in the
37  * <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/">Unicode Standard Annex #9</a>.<p>
38  *
39  * Note: Libraries that perform a bidirectional algorithm and
40  * reorder strings accordingly are sometimes called "Storage Layout Engines".
41  * ICU's Bidi and shaping (u_shapeArabic()) APIs can be used at the core of such
42  * "Storage Layout Engines".
43  *
44  * <h3>General remarks about the API:</h3>
45  *
46  * In functions with an error code parameter,
47  * the <code>pErrorCode</code> pointer must be valid
48  * and the value that it points to must not indicate a failure before
49  * the function call. Otherwise, the function returns immediately.
50  * After the function call, the value indicates success or failure.<p>
51  *
52  * The &quot;limit&quot; of a sequence of characters is the position just after their
53  * last character, i.e., one more than that position.<p>
54  *
55  * Some of the API functions provide access to &quot;runs&quot;.
56  * Such a &quot;run&quot; is defined as a sequence of characters
57  * that are at the same embedding level
58  * after performing the Bidi algorithm.<p>

64  * <h4> Sample code for the ICU Bidi API </h4>
65  *
66  * <h5>Rendering a paragraph with the ICU Bidi API</h5>
67  *
68  * This is (hypothetical) sample code that illustrates
69  * how the ICU Bidi API could be used to render a paragraph of text.
70  * Rendering code depends highly on the graphics system,
71  * therefore this sample code must make a lot of assumptions,
72  * which may or may not match any existing graphics system's properties.
73  *
74  * <p>The basic assumptions are:</p>
75  * <ul>
76  * <li>Rendering is done from left to right on a horizontal line.</li>
77  * <li>A run of single-style, unidirectional text can be rendered at once.</li>
78  * <li>Such a run of text is passed to the graphics system with
79  *     characters (code units) in logical order.</li>
80  * <li>The line-breaking algorithm is very complicated
81  *     and Locale-dependent -
82  *     and therefore its implementation omitted from this sample code.</li>
83  * </ul>

776  * <p>In other cases, it may be desirable to emulate some variant of the
777  * Logical to Visual algorithm (e.g. one used in MS Windows), or perform a
778  * Logical to Logical transformation.</p>
779  *
780  * <ul>
781  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_DEFAULT</code>,
782  * the standard Bidi Logical to Visual algorithm is applied.</li>
783  *
784  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to
785  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_NUMBERS_SPECIAL</code>,
786  * the algorithm used to perform Bidi transformations when calling
787  * <code>ubidi_setPara</code> should approximate the algorithm used in
788  * Microsoft Windows XP rather than strictly conform to the Unicode Bidi
789  * algorithm.
790  * <br>
791  * The differences between the basic algorithm and the algorithm addressed
792  * by this option are as follows:
793  * <ul>
794  *   <li>Within text at an even embedding level, the sequence "123AB"
795  *   (where AB represent R or AL letters) is transformed to "123BA" by the
796  *   Unicode algorithm and to "BA123" by the Windows algorithm.</li>
797  *   <li>Arabic-Indic numbers (AN) are handled by the Windows algorithm just
798  *   like regular numbers (EN).</li>
799  * </ul></li>
800  *
801  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to
802  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_GROUP_NUMBERS_WITH_R</code>,
803  * numbers located between LTR text and RTL text are associated with the RTL
804  * text. For instance, an LTR paragraph with content "abc 123 DEF" (where
805  * upper case letters represent RTL characters) will be transformed to
806  * "abc FED 123" (and not "abc 123 FED"), "DEF 123 abc" will be transformed
807  * to "123 FED abc" and "123 FED abc" will be transformed to "DEF 123 abc".
808  * This makes the algorithm reversible and makes it useful when round trip
809  * (from visual to logical and back to visual) must be achieved without
810  * adding LRM characters. However, this is a variation from the standard
811  * Unicode Bidi algorithm.<br>
812  * The source text should not contain Bidi control characters other than LRM
813  * or RLM.</li>
814  *
815  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to
816  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_RUNS_ONLY</code>,
817  * a "Logical to Logical" transformation must be performed:
818  * <ul>
819  * <li>If the default text level of the source text (argument <code>paraLevel</code>
820  * in <code>ubidi_setPara</code>) is even, the source text will be handled as
821  * LTR logical text and will be transformed to the RTL logical text which has
822  * the same LTR visual display.</li>
823  * <li>If the default level of the source text is odd, the source text
824  * will be handled as RTL logical text and will be transformed to the
825  * LTR logical text which has the same LTR visual display.</li>
826  * </ul>
827  * This mode may be needed when logical text which is basically Arabic or
828  * Hebrew, with possible included numbers or phrases in English, has to be
829  * displayed as if it had an even embedding level (this can happen if the
830  * displaying application treats all text as if it was basically LTR).
831  * <br>
832  * This mode may also be needed in the reverse case, when logical text which is
833  * basically English, with possible included phrases in Arabic or Hebrew, has to
834  * be displayed as if it had an odd embedding level.
835  * <br>
836  * Both cases could be handled by adding LRE or RLE at the head of the text,
837  * if the display subsystem supports these formatting controls. If it does not,
838  * the problem may be handled by transforming the source text in this mode
839  * before displaying it, so that it will be displayed properly.<br>
840  * The source text should not contain Bidi control characters other than LRM
841  * or RLM.</li>
842  *
843  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to

848  * reordered sequence (the option <code>#UBIDI_INSERT_LRM_FOR_NUMERIC</code> can
849  * be used with function <code>ubidi_writeReordered</code> to this end. This
850  * mode is equivalent to calling <code>ubidi_setInverse()</code> with
851  * argument <code>isInverse</code> set to <code>true</code>.</li>
852  *
853  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to
854  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE_LIKE_DIRECT</code>, the "direct" Logical to Visual
855  * Bidi algorithm is used as an approximation of an "inverse Bidi" algorithm.
856  * This mode is similar to mode <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE_NUMBERS_AS_L</code>
857  * but is closer to the regular Bidi algorithm.
858  * <br>
859  * For example, an LTR paragraph with the content "FED 123 456 CBA" (where
860  * upper case represents RTL characters) will be transformed to
861  * "ABC 456 123 DEF", as opposed to "DEF 123 456 ABC"
862  * with mode <code>UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE_NUMBERS_AS_L</code>.<br>
863  * When used in conjunction with option
864  * <code>#UBIDI_OPTION_INSERT_MARKS</code>, this mode generally
865  * adds Bidi marks to the output significantly more sparingly than mode
866  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE_NUMBERS_AS_L</code> with option
867  * <code>#UBIDI_INSERT_LRM_FOR_NUMERIC</code> in calls to
868  * <code>ubidi_writeReordered</code>.</li>
869  *
870  * <li>When the reordering mode is set to
871  * <code>#UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE_FOR_NUMBERS_SPECIAL</code>, the Logical to Visual
872  * Bidi algorithm used in Windows XP is used as an approximation of an "inverse Bidi" algorithm.
873  * <br>
874  * For example, an LTR paragraph with the content "abc FED123" (where
875  * upper case represents RTL characters) will be transformed to "abc 123DEF."</li>
876  * </ul>
877  *
878  * <p>In all the reordering modes specifying an "inverse Bidi" algorithm
879  * (i.e. those with a name starting with <code>UBIDI_REORDER_INVERSE</code>),
880  * output runs should be retrieved using
881  * <code>ubidi_getVisualRun()</code>, and the output text with
882  * <code>ubidi_writeReordered()</code>. The caller should keep in mind that in
883  * "inverse Bidi" modes the input is actually visually ordered text and
884  * reordered output returned by <code>ubidi_getVisualRun()</code> or
885  * <code>ubidi_writeReordered()</code> are actually runs or character string
886  * of logically ordered output.<br>
887  * For all the "inverse Bidi" modes, the source text should not contain
888  * Bidi control characters other than LRM or RLM.</p>
889  *
890  * <p>Note that option <code>#UBIDI_OUTPUT_REVERSE</code> of
891  * <code>ubidi_writeReordered</code> has no useful meaning and should not be

1108  * this behavior by handling the main text as if preceded by the last
1109  * strong character appearing in the prologue, if any.
1110  * Calling ubidi_setContext() with specification of an epilogue will change
1111  * the behavior of ubidi_setPara() by handling the main text as if followed
1112  * by the first strong character or digit appearing in the epilogue, if any.<p>
1113  *
1114  * Note 1: if <code>ubidi_setContext</code> is called repeatedly without
1115  *         calling <code>ubidi_setPara</code>, the earlier calls have no effect,

1119  * Note 2: calling <code>ubidi_setContext(pBiDi, NULL, 0, NULL, 0, &errorCode)</code>

1177  * version 13,
1178  * also described in The Unicode Standard, Version 4.0 .<p>
1179  *
1180  * This function takes a piece of plain text containing one or more paragraphs,
1181  * with or without externally specified embedding levels from <i>styled</i>
1182  * text and computes the left-right-directionality of each character.<p>
1183  *
1184  * If the entire text is all of the same directionality, then
1185  * the function may not perform all the steps described by the algorithm,
1186  * i.e., some levels may not be the same as if all steps were performed.
1187  * This is not relevant for unidirectional text.<br>
1188  * For example, in pure LTR text with numbers the numbers would get
1189  * a resolved level of 2 higher than the surrounding text according to
1190  * the algorithm. This implementation may set all resolved levels to
1191  * the same value in such a case.<p>
1192  *
1193  * The text can be composed of multiple paragraphs. Occurrence of a block
1194  * separator in the text terminates a paragraph, and whatever comes next starts
1195  * a new paragraph. The exception to this rule is when a Carriage Return (CR)
1196  * is followed by a Line Feed (LF). Both CR and LF are block separators, but
1197  * in that case, the pair of characters is considered as terminating the
1198  * preceding paragraph, and a new paragraph will be started by a character
1199  * coming after the LF.
1200  *
1201  * @param pBiDi A <code>UBiDi</code> object allocated with <code>ubidi_open()</code>
1202  *        which will be set to contain the reordering information,
1203  *        especially the resolved levels for all the characters in <code>text</code>.
1204  *
1205  * @param text is a pointer to the text that the Bidi algorithm will be performed on.
1206  *        This pointer is stored in the UBiDi object and can be retrieved
1207  *        with <code>ubidi_getText()</code>.<br>
1208  *        <strong>Note:</strong> the text must be (at least) <code>length</code> long.
1209  *
1210  * @param length is the length of the text; if <code>length==-1</code> then
1211  *        the text must be zero-terminated.
1212  *
1213  * @param paraLevel specifies the default level for the text;
1214  *        it is typically 0 (LTR) or 1 (RTL).
1215  *        If the function shall determine the paragraph level from the text,
1216  *        then <code>paraLevel</code> can be set to
1217  *        either <code>#UBIDI_DEFAULT_LTR</code>
1218  *        or <code>#UBIDI_DEFAULT_RTL</code>; if the text contains multiple
1219  *        paragraphs, the paragraph level shall be determined separately for
1220  *        each paragraph; if a paragraph does not include any strongly typed
1221  *        character, then the desired default is used (0 for LTR or 1 for RTL).
1222  *        Any other value between 0 and <code>#UBIDI_MAX_EXPLICIT_LEVEL</code>
