/**
* Abstract class defining a protcol for accessing characters in a text-storage object.
<P>Examples:<P>
Function processing characters, in this example simple output
<pre>
. void processChar( UChar c )
. {
. cout << " " << c;
. }
</pre>
Traverse the text from start to finish
<pre>
. void traverseForward(CharacterIterator& iter)
. {
. for(UChar c = iter.first(); c != CharacterIterator.DONE; c = iter.next()) {
. processChar(c);
. }
. }
</pre>
Traverse the text backwards, from end to start
<pre>
. void traverseBackward(CharacterIterator& iter)
. {
. for(UChar c = iter.last(); c != CharacterIterator.DONE; c = iter.previous()) {
. processChar(c);
. }
. }
</pre>
Traverse both forward and backward from a given position in the text.
Calls to notBoundary() in this example represents some additional stopping criteria.
<pre>
. void traverseOut(CharacterIterator& iter, UTextOffset pos)
. {
. UChar c;
. for (c = iter.setIndex(pos);
. c != CharacterIterator.DONE && (Unicode::isLetter(c) || Unicode::isDigit(c));
. c = iter.next()) {}
. UTextOffset end = iter.getIndex();
. for (c = iter.setIndex(pos);
. c != CharacterIterator.DONE && (Unicode::isLetter(c) || Unicode::isDigit(c));
. c = iter.previous()) {}
. UTextOffset start = iter.getIndex() + 1;
.
. cout << "start: " << start << " end: " << end << endl;
. for (c = iter.setIndex(start); iter.getIndex() < end; c = iter.next() ) {
. processChar(c);
. }
. }
</pre>
Creating a StringCharacterIteratorand calling the test functions
<pre>
. void CharacterIterator_Example( void )
. {
. cout << endl << "===== CharacterIterator_Example: =====" << endl;
. UnicodeString text("Ein kleiner Satz.");
. StringCharacterIterator iterator(text);
. cout << "----- traverseForward: -----------" << endl;
. traverseForward( iterator );
. cout << endl << endl << "----- traverseBackward: ----------" << endl;
. traverseBackward( iterator );
. cout << endl << endl << "----- traverseOut: ---------------" << endl;
. traverseOut( iterator, 7 );
. cout << endl << endl << "-----" << endl;
. }
</pre>
