or structure. This class represents such an entity. It is lightweight, so it can be used everywhere. Most compilers treat it like a "short int". (In a few years it may be necessary to make QChar 32-bit when more than 65536 Unicode code points have been defined and come into use.) -.PP -QChar provides a full complement of testing/classification functions, converting to and from other formats, converting from composed to decomposed Unicode, and trying to compare and case-convert if you ask it to. -.PP -The classification functions include functions like those in ctype.h, but operating on the full range of Unicode characters. They all return TRUE if the character is a certain type of character; otherwise they return FALSE. These classification functions are isNull() (returns TRUE if the character is U+0000), isPrint() (TRUE if the character is any sort of printable character, including whitespace), isPunct() (any sort of punctation), isMark() (Unicode Mark), isLetter (a letter), isNumber() (any sort of numeric character), isLetterOrNumber(), and isDigit() (decimal digits). All of these are wrappers around category() which return the Unicode-defined category of each character. -.PP -QChar further provides direction(), which indicates the "natural" writing direction of this character. The joining() function indicates how the character joins with its neighbors (needed mostly for Arabic) and finally mirrored(), which indicates whether the character needs to be mirrored when it is printed in its" unnatural" writing direction. -.PP -Composed Unicode characters (like å) can be converted to decomposed Unicode ("a" followed by "ring above") by using decomposition(). -.PP -In Unicode, comparison is not necessarily possible and case conversion is very difficult at best. Unicode, covering the" entire" world, also includes most of the world's case and sorting problems. Qt tries, but not very hard: operator==() and friends will do comparison based purely on the numeric Unicode value (code point) of the characters, and upper() and lower() will do case changes when the character has a well-defined upper/lower-case equivalent. There is no provision for locale-dependent case folding rules or comparison; these functions are meant to be fast so they can be used unambiguously in data structures. (See QString::localeAwareCompare() though.) -.PP -The conversion functions include unicode() (to a scalar), latin1() (to scalar, but converts all non-Latin-1 characters to 0), row() (gives the Unicode row), cell() (gives the Unicode cell), digitValue() (gives the integer value of any of the numerous digit characters), and a host of constructors. -.PP -More information can be found in the document About Unicode. -.PP -See also QString, QCharRef, and Text Related Classes. -.SS "Member Type Documentation" -.SH "QChar::Category" -This enum maps the Unicode character categories. -.PP -The following characters are normative in Unicode: -.TP -\fCQChar::Mark_NonSpacing\fR - Unicode class name Mn -.TP -\fCQChar::Mark_SpacingCombining\fR - Unicode class name Mc -.TP -\fCQChar::Mark_Enclosing\fR - Unicode class name Me -.TP -\fCQChar::Number_DecimalDigit\fR - Unicode class name Nd -.TP -\fCQChar::Number_Letter\fR - Unicode class name Nl -.TP -\fCQChar::Number_Other\fR - Unicode class name No -.TP -\fCQChar::Separator_Space\fR - Unicode class name Zs -.TP -\fCQChar::Separator_Line\fR - Unicode class name Zl -.TP -\fCQChar::Separator_Paragraph\fR - Unicode class name Zp -.TP -\fCQChar::Other_Control\fR - Unicode class name Cc -.TP -\fCQChar::Other_Format\fR - Unicode class name Cf -.TP -\fCQChar::Other_Surrogate\fR - Unicode class name Cs -.TP -\fCQChar::Other_PrivateUse\fR - Unicode class name Co -.TP -\fCQChar::Other_NotAssigned\fR - Unicode class name Cn -.PP -The following categories are informative in Unicode: -.TP -\fCQChar::Letter_Uppercase\fR - Unicode class name Lu -.TP -\fCQChar::Letter_Lowercase\fR - Unicode class name Ll -.TP -\fCQChar::Letter_Titlecase\fR - Unicode class name Lt -.TP -\fCQChar::Letter_Modifier\fR - Unicode class name Lm -.TP -\fCQChar::Letter_Other\fR - Unicode class name Lo -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Connector\fR - Unicode class name Pc -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Dash\fR - Unicode class name Pd -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Open\fR - Unicode class name Ps -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Close\fR - Unicode class name Pe -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_InitialQuote\fR - Unicode class name Pi -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_FinalQuote\fR - Unicode class name Pf -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Other\fR - Unicode class name Po -.TP -\fCQChar::Symbol_Math\fR - Unicode class name Sm -.TP -\fCQChar::Symbol_Currency\fR - Unicode class name Sc -.TP -\fCQChar::Symbol_Modifier\fR - Unicode class name Sk -.TP -\fCQChar::Symbol_Other\fR - Unicode class name So -.PP -There are two categories that are specific to Qt: -.TP -\fCQChar::NoCategory\fR - used when Qt is dazed and confused and cannot make sense of anything. -.TP -\fCQChar::Punctuation_Dask\fR - old typo alias for Punctuation_Dash -.SH "QChar::CombiningClass" -This enum type defines names for some of the Unicode combining classes.
