21  * \brief C API: Character conversion
22  *
23  * <h2>Character Conversion C API</h2>
24  *
25  * <p>This API is used to convert codepage or character encoded data to and
26  * from UTF-16. You can open a converter with {@link ucnv_open() }. With that
27  * converter, you can get its properties, set options, convert your data and
28  * close the converter.</p>
29  *
30  * <p>Since many software programs recogize different converter names for
31  * different types of converters, there are other functions in this API to
32  * iterate over the converter aliases. The functions {@link ucnv_getAvailableName() },
33  * {@link ucnv_getAlias() } and {@link ucnv_getStandardName() } are some of the
34  * more frequently used alias functions to get this information.</p>
35  *
36  * <p>When a converter encounters an illegal, irregular, invalid or unmappable character
37  * its default behavior is to use a substitution character to replace the
38  * bad byte sequence. This behavior can be changed by using {@link ucnv_setFromUCallBack() }
39  * or {@link ucnv_setToUCallBack() } on the converter. The header ucnv_err.h defines
40  * many other callback actions that can be used instead of a character substitution.</p>
41  *
42  * <p>More information about this API can be found in our
43  * <a href="http://icu-project.org/userguide/conversion.html">User's
44  * Guide</a>.</p>

954  * 1. UCNV_ROUNDTRIP_SET
955  *
956  * The set of all Unicode code points that can be roundtrip-converted
957  * (converted without any data loss) with the converter (ucnv_fromUnicode()).
958  * This set will not include code points that have fallback mappings

961  * ucnv_fromUnicode() will always uses those mappings despite ucnv_setFallback().
962  * See UTR #22 "Character Mapping Markup Language"
963  * at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr22/
964  *
965  * This is useful for example for
966  * - checking that a string or document can be roundtrip-converted with a converter,
967  *   without/before actually performing the conversion
968  * - testing if a converter can be used for text for typical text for a certain locale,
969  *   by comparing its roundtrip set with the set of ExemplarCharacters from
970  *   ICU's locale data or other sources
971  *
972  * 2. UCNV_ROUNDTRIP_AND_FALLBACK_SET
973  *
974  * The set of all Unicode code points that can be converted with the converter (ucnv_fromUnicode())
975  * when fallbacks are turned on (see ucnv_setFallback()).
976  * This set includes all code points with roundtrips and fallbacks (but not reverse fallbacks).
977  *

1286  *   US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1, UTF-8/16/32, and most "normal" charsets.
1287  *   (For complex converters, e.g., SCSU, UTF-7 and ISO 2022 variants,
1288  *    it uses ucnv_toUnicode() internally.)
1289  * - Convenient.
1290  *
1291  * Limitations compared to ucnv_toUnicode():
1292  * - Always assumes flush=TRUE.
1293  *   This makes ucnv_getNextUChar() unsuitable for "streaming" conversion,
1294  *   that is, for where the input is supplied in multiple buffers,
1295  *   because ucnv_getNextUChar() will assume the end of the input at the end
1296  *   of the first buffer.
1297  * - Does not provide offset output.
1298  *
1299  * It is possible to "mix" ucnv_getNextUChar() and ucnv_toUnicode() because
1300  * ucnv_getNextUChar() uses the current state of the converter
1301  * (unlike ucnv_toUChars() which always resets first).
1302  * However, if ucnv_getNextUChar() is called after ucnv_toUnicode()
1303  * stopped in the middle of a character sequence (with flush=FALSE),
1304  * then ucnv_getNextUChar() will always use the slower ucnv_toUnicode()
1305  * internally until the next character boundary.
1306  * (This is new in ICU 2.6. In earlier releases, ucnv_getNextUChar() had to
1307  * start at a character boundary.)
1308  *
1309  * Instead of using ucnv_getNextUChar(), it is recommended
1310  * to convert using ucnv_toUnicode() or ucnv_toUChars()
1311  * and then iterate over the text using U16_NEXT() or a UCharIterator (uiter.h)
1312  * or a C++ CharacterIterator or similar.
1313  * This allows streaming conversion and offset output, for example.
1314  *
1315  * <p>Handling of surrogate pairs and supplementary-plane code points:<br>
1316  * There are two different kinds of codepages that provide mappings for surrogate characters:
1317  * <ul>
1318  *   <li>Codepages like UTF-8, UTF-32, and GB 18030 provide direct representations for Unicode
1319  *       code points U+10000-U+10ffff as well as for single surrogates U+d800-U+dfff.
1320  *       Each valid sequence will result in exactly one returned code point.
1321  *       If a sequence results in a single surrogate, then that will be returned
1322  *       by itself, even if a neighboring sequence encodes the matching surrogate.</li>
1323  *   <li>Codepages like SCSU and LMBCS (and UTF-16) provide direct representations only for BMP code points
1324  *       including surrogates. Code points in supplementary planes are represented with
1325  *       two sequences, each encoding a surrogate.
1326  *       For these codepages, matching pairs of surrogates will be combined into single
1327  *       code points for returning from this function.
1328  *       (Note that SCSU is actually a mix of these codepage types.)</li>
1329  * </ul></p>
1330  *
1331  * @param converter an open UConverter
1332  * @param source the address of a pointer to the codepage buffer, will be
1333  *  updated to point after the bytes consumed in the conversion call.
1334  * @param sourceLimit points to the end of the input buffer

1340  * This function will not set a <code>U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR</code> because

1356 /**
1357  * Convert from one external charset to another using two existing UConverters.
1358  * Internally, two conversions - ucnv_toUnicode() and ucnv_fromUnicode() -
1359  * are used, "pivoting" through 16-bit Unicode.
1360  *
1361  * Important: For streaming conversion (multiple function calls for successive
1362  * parts of a text stream), the caller must provide a pivot buffer explicitly,
1363  * and must preserve the pivot buffer and associated pointers from one
1364  * call to another. (The buffer may be moved if its contents and the relative
1365  * pointer positions are preserved.)
1366  *
1367  * There is a similar function, ucnv_convert(),
1368  * which has the following limitations:
1369  * - it takes charset names, not converter objects, so that
1370  *   - two converters are opened for each call
1371  *   - only single-string conversion is possible, not streaming operation
1372  * - it does not provide enough information to find out,
1373  *   in case of failure, whether the toUnicode or
1374  *   the fromUnicode conversion failed
1375  *
1376  * By contrast, ucnv_convertEx()
1377  * - takes UConverter parameters instead of charset names
1378  * - fully exposes the pivot buffer for streaming conversion and complete error handling
1379  *
1380  * ucnv_convertEx() also provides further convenience:
1381  * - an option to reset the converters at the beginning
1382  *   (if reset==TRUE, see parameters;
1383  *    also sets *pivotTarget=*pivotSource=pivotStart)
1384  * - allow NUL-terminated input
1385  *   (only a single NUL byte, will not work for charsets with multi-byte NULs)
1386  *   (if sourceLimit==NULL, see parameters)
1387  * - terminate with a NUL on output
1388  *   (only a single NUL byte, not useful for charsets with multi-byte NULs),
1389  *   or set U_STRING_NOT_TERMINATED_WARNING if the output exactly fills
1390  *   the target buffer
1391  * - the pivot buffer can be provided internally;
1392  *   possible only for whole-string conversion, not streaming conversion;
1393  *   in this case, the caller will not be able to get details about where an
1394  *   error occurred
1395  *   (if pivotStart==NULL, see below)
1396  *
1397  * The function returns when one of the following is true:
1398  * - the entire source text has been converted successfully to the target buffer
1399  * - a target buffer overflow occurred (U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR)
1400  * - a conversion error occurred
1401  *   (other U_FAILURE(), see description of pErrorCode)
1402  *
1403  * Limitation compared to the direct use of
1404  * ucnv_fromUnicode() and ucnv_toUnicode():
1405  * ucnv_convertEx() does not provide offset information.
1406  *
1407  * Limitation compared to ucnv_fromUChars() and ucnv_toUChars():
1408  * ucnv_convertEx() does not support preflighting directly.
1409  *
1410  * Sample code for converting a single string from
1411  * one external charset to UTF-8, ignoring the location of errors:
1412  *
1413  * \code
1414  * int32_t
