41 *
42 * <code>Transliterator</code> is an abstract class that
43 * transliterates text from one format to another. The most common
44 * kind of transliterator is a script, or alphabet, transliterator.
45 * For example, a Russian to Latin transliterator changes Russian text
46 * written in Cyrillic characters to phonetically equivalent Latin
47 * characters. It does not <em>translate</em> Russian to English!
48 * Transliteration, unlike translation, operates on characters, without
49 * reference to the meanings of words and sentences.
50 *
51 * <p>Although script conversion is its most common use, a
52 * transliterator can actually perform a more general class of tasks.
53 * In fact, <code>Transliterator</code> defines a very general API
54 * which specifies only that a segment of the input text is replaced
55 * by new text. The particulars of this conversion are determined
56 * entirely by subclasses of <code>Transliterator</code>.
57 *
58 * <p><b>Transliterators are stateless</b>
59 *
60 * <p><code>Transliterator</code> objects are <em>stateless</em>; they
61 * retain no information between calls to
62 * <code>transliterate()</code>. (However, this does <em>not</em>
63 * mean that threads may share transliterators without synchronizing
64 * them. Transliterators are not immutable, so they must be
65 * synchronized when shared between threads.) This might seem to
66 * limit the complexity of the transliteration operation. In
67 * practice, subclasses perform complex transliterations by delaying
68 * the replacement of text until it is known that no other
69 * replacements are possible. In other words, although the
70 * <code>Transliterator</code> objects are stateless, the source text
71 * itself embodies all the needed information, and delayed operation
72 * allows arbitrary complexity.
73 *
74 * <p><b>Batch transliteration</b>
75 *
76 * <p>The simplest way to perform transliteration is all at once, on a
77 * string of existing text. This is referred to as <em>batch</em>
78 * transliteration. For example, given a string <code>input</code>
79 * and a transliterator <code>t</code>, the call
80 *
81 * String result = t.transliterate(input);
82 *
83 * will transliterate it and return the result. Other methods allow
84 * the client to specify a substring to be transliterated and to use
85 * {@link Replaceable } objects instead of strings, in order to
86 * preserve out-of-band information (such as text styles).
87 *
88 * <p><b>Keyboard transliteration</b>
89 *
90 * <p>Somewhat more involved is <em>keyboard</em>, or incremental
91 * transliteration. This is the transliteration of text that is
92 * arriving from some source (typically the user's keyboard) one
93 * character at a time, or in some other piecemeal fashion.
94 *
95 * <p>In keyboard transliteration, a <code>Replaceable</code> buffer
96 * stores the text. As text is inserted, as much as possible is
97 * transliterated on the fly. This means a GUI that displays the
98 * contents of the buffer may show text being modified as each new
99 * character arrives.
100 *
101 * <p>Consider the simple rule-based Transliterator:
102 * <pre>
103 * th>{theta}
104 * t>{tau}
105 * </pre>
106 *
107 * When the user types 't', nothing will happen, since the
108 * transliterator is waiting to see if the next character is 'h'. To
109 * remedy this, we introduce the notion of a cursor, marked by a '|'
110 * in the output string:
111 * <pre>
112 * t>|{tau}
113 * {tau}h>{theta}
114 * </pre>
115 *
116 * Now when the user types 't', tau appears, and if the next character
117 * is 'h', the tau changes to a theta. This is accomplished by
118 * maintaining a cursor position (independent of the insertion point,
119 * and invisible in the GUI) across calls to
120 * <code>transliterate()</code>. Typically, the cursor will
121 * be coincident with the insertion point, but in a case like the one
122 * above, it will precede the insertion point.
123 *
124 * <p>Keyboard transliteration methods maintain a set of three indices
125 * that are updated with each call to
126 * <code>transliterate()</code>, including the cursor, start,
127 * and limit. Since these indices are changed by the method, they are
128 * passed in an <code>int[]</code> array. The <code>START</code> index
129 * marks the beginning of the substring that the transliterator will
130 * look at. It is advanced as text becomes committed (but it is not
131 * the committed index; that's the <code>CURSOR</code>). The
132 * <code>CURSOR</code> index, described above, marks the point at
133 * which the transliterator last stopped, either because it reached
134 * the end, or because it required more characters to disambiguate
135 * between possible inputs. The <code>CURSOR</code> can also be
136 * explicitly set by rules in a rule-based Transliterator.
137 * Any characters before the <code>CURSOR</code> index are frozen;
138 * future keyboard transliteration calls within this input sequence
139 * will not change them. New text is inserted at the
140 * <code>LIMIT</code> index, which marks the end of the substring that
141 * the transliterator looks at.
142 *
143 * <p>Because keyboard transliteration assumes that more characters
144 * are to arrive, it is conservative in its operation. It only
145 * transliterates when it can do so unambiguously. Otherwise it waits
146 * for more characters to arrive. When the client code knows that no
147 * more characters are forthcoming, perhaps because the user has
148 * performed some input termination operation, then it should call
149 * <code>finishTransliteration()</code> to complete any
150 * pending transliterations.
151 *
152 * <p><b>Inverses</b>
153 *
154 * <p>Pairs of transliterators may be inverses of one another. For
155 * example, if transliterator <b>A</b> transliterates characters by
156 * incrementing their Unicode value (so "abc" -> "def"), and
157 * transliterator <b>B</b> decrements character values, then <b>A</b>
158 * is an inverse of <b>B</b> and vice versa. If we compose <b>A</b>
159 * with <b>B</b> in a compound transliterator, the result is the
160 * indentity transliterator, that is, a transliterator that does not
161 * change its input text.
162 *
163 * The <code>Transliterator</code> method <code>getInverse()</code>
164 * returns a transliterator's inverse, if one exists, or
165 * <code>null</code> otherwise. However, the result of
166 * <code>getInverse()</code> usually will <em>not</em> be a true
167 * mathematical inverse. This is because true inverse transliterators
168 * are difficult to formulate. For example, consider two
169 * transliterators: <b>AB</b>, which transliterates the character 'A'
170 * to 'B', and <b>BA</b>, which transliterates 'B' to 'A'. It might
171 * seem that these are exact inverses, since
172 *
173 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly"A" x <b>AB</b> -> "B"<br>
174 * "B" x <b>BA</b> -> "A"\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
175 *
176 * where 'x' represents transliteration. However,
177 *
178 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly"ABCD" x <b>AB</b> -> "BBCD"<br>
179 * "BBCD" x <b>BA</b> -> "AACD"\htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
180 *
181 * so <b>AB</b> composed with <b>BA</b> is not the
182 * identity. Nonetheless, <b>BA</b> may be usefully considered to be
183 * <b>AB</b>'s inverse, and it is on this basis that
184 * <b>AB</b><code>.getInverse()</code> could legitimately return
185 * <b>BA</b>.
186 *
187 * <p><b>IDs and display names</b>
188 *
189 * <p>A transliterator is designated by a short identifier string or
190 * <em>ID</em>. IDs follow the format <em>source-destination</em>,
191 * where <em>source</em> describes the entity being replaced, and
192 * <em>destination</em> describes the entity replacing
193 * <em>source</em>. The entities may be the names of scripts,
194 * particular sequences of characters, or whatever else it is that the
195 * transliterator converts to or from. For example, a transliterator
196 * from Russian to Latin might be named "Russian-Latin". A
197 * transliterator from keyboard escape sequences to Latin-1 characters
198 * might be named "KeyboardEscape-Latin1". By convention, system
199 * entity names are in English, with the initial letters of words
200 * capitalized; user entity names may follow any format so long as
201 * they do not contain dashes.
202 *
203 * <p>In addition to programmatic IDs, transliterator objects have
204 * display names for presentation in user interfaces, returned by
205 * {@link #getDisplayName }.
206 *
207 * <p><b>Factory methods and registration</b>
208 *
209 * <p>In general, client code should use the factory method
210 * {@link #createInstance } to obtain an instance of a
211 * transliterator given its ID. Valid IDs may be enumerated using
212 * <code>getAvailableIDs()</code>. Since transliterators are mutable,
213 * multiple calls to {@link #createInstance } with the same ID will
214 * return distinct objects.
215 *
216 * <p>In addition to the system transliterators registered at startup,
217 * user transliterators may be registered by calling
218 * <code>registerInstance()</code> at run time. A registered instance
219 * acts a template; future calls to {@link #createInstance } with the ID
220 * of the registered object return clones of that object. Thus any
221 * object passed to <tt>registerInstance()</tt> must implement
222 * <tt>clone()</tt> propertly. To register a transliterator subclass
223 * without instantiating it (until it is needed), users may call
224 * {@link #registerFactory }. In this case, the objects are
225 * instantiated by invoking the zero-argument public constructor of
226 * the class.
227 *
228 * <p><b>Subclassing</b>
229 *
230 * Subclasses must implement the abstract method
231 * <code>handleTransliterate()</code>. <p>Subclasses should override
232 * the <code>transliterate()</code> method taking a
233 * <code>Replaceable</code> and the <code>transliterate()</code>
234 * method taking a <code>String</code> and <code>StringBuffer</code>
235 * if the performance of these methods can be improved over the
236 * performance obtained by the default implementations in this class.
237 *
238 * <p><b>Rule syntax</b>
239 *
240 * <p>A set of rules determines how to perform translations.
241 * Rules within a rule set are separated by semicolons (';').
242 * To include a literal semicolon, prefix it with a backslash ('\').
243 * Unicode Pattern_White_Space is ignored.
244 * If the first non-blank character on a line is '#',
245 * the entire line is ignored as a comment.
246 *
247 * <p>Each set of rules consists of two groups, one forward, and one
248 * reverse. This is a convention that is not enforced; rules for one
249 * direction may be omitted, with the result that translations in
250 * that direction will not modify the source text. In addition,
251 * bidirectional forward-reverse rules may be specified for
252 * symmetrical transformations.
253 *
254 * <p>Note: Another description of the Transliterator rule syntax is available in
255 * <a href="https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-general.html#Transform_Rules_Syntax">section
256 * Transform Rules Syntax of UTS #35: Unicode LDML</a>.
257 * The rules are shown there using arrow symbols ← and → and ↔.
258 * ICU supports both those and the equivalent ASCII symbols < and > and <>.
259 *
260 * <p>Rule statements take one of the following forms:
261 *
262 * <dl>
263 * <dt><code>$alefmadda=\\u0622;</code></dt>
264 * <dd><strong>Variable definition.</strong> The name on the
265 * left is assigned the text on the right. In this example,
266 * after this statement, instances of the left hand name,
267 * "<code>$alefmadda</code>", will be replaced by
268 * the Unicode character U+0622. Variable names must begin
269 * with a letter and consist only of letters, digits, and
270 * underscores. Case is significant. Duplicate names cause
271 * an exception to be thrown, that is, variables cannot be
272 * redefined. The right hand side may contain well-formed
273 * text of any length, including no text at all ("<code>$empty=;</code>").
274 * The right hand side may contain embedded <code>UnicodeSet</code>
275 * patterns, for example, "<code>$softvowel=[eiyEIY]</code>".</dd>
276 * <dt><code>ai>$alefmadda;</code></dt>
277 * <dd><strong>Forward translation rule.</strong> This rule
278 * states that the string on the left will be changed to the
279 * string on the right when performing forward
280 * transliteration.</dd>
281 * <dt><code>ai<$alefmadda;</code></dt>
282 * <dd><strong>Reverse translation rule.</strong> This rule
283 * states that the string on the right will be changed to
284 * the string on the left when performing reverse
285 * transliteration.</dd>
286 * </dl>
287 *
288 * <dl>
289 * <dt><code>ai<>$alefmadda;</code></dt>
290 * <dd><strong>Bidirectional translation rule.</strong> This
291 * rule states that the string on the right will be changed
292 * to the string on the left when performing forward
293 * transliteration, and vice versa when performing reverse
294 * transliteration.</dd>
295 * </dl>
296 *
297 * <p>Translation rules consist of a <em>match pattern</em> and an <em>output
298 * string</em>. The match pattern consists of literal characters,
299 * optionally preceded by context, and optionally followed by
300 * context. Context characters, like literal pattern characters,
301 * must be matched in the text being transliterated. However, unlike
302 * literal pattern characters, they are not replaced by the output
303 * text. For example, the pattern "<code>abc{def}</code>"
304 * indicates the characters "<code>def</code>" must be
305 * preceded by "<code>abc</code>" for a successful match.
306 * If there is a successful match, "<code>def</code>" will
307 * be replaced, but not "<code>abc</code>". The final '<code>}</code>'
308 * is optional, so "<code>abc{def</code>" is equivalent to
309 * "<code>abc{def}</code>". Another example is "<code>{123}456</code>"
310 * (or "<code>123}456</code>") in which the literal
311 * pattern "<code>123</code>" must be followed by "<code>456</code>".
312 *
313 * <p>The output string of a forward or reverse rule consists of
314 * characters to replace the literal pattern characters. If the
315 * output string contains the character '<code>|</code>', this is
316 * taken to indicate the location of the <em>cursor</em> after
317 * replacement. The cursor is the point in the text at which the
318 * next replacement, if any, will be applied. The cursor is usually
319 * placed within the replacement text; however, it can actually be
320 * placed into the precending or following context by using the
321 * special character '@'. Examples:
322 *
323 * <pre>
324 * a {foo} z > | @ bar; # foo -> bar, move cursor before a
325 * {foo} xyz > bar @@|; # foo -> bar, cursor between y and z
326 * </pre>
327 *
328 * <p><b>UnicodeSet</b>
329 *
330 * <p><code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may appear anywhere that
331 * makes sense. They may appear in variable definitions.
332 * Contrariwise, <code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may themselves
333 * contain variable references, such as "<code>$a=[a-z];$not_a=[^$a]</code>",
334 * or "<code>$range=a-z;$ll=[$range]</code>".
335 *
336 * <p><code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may also be embedded directly
337 * into rule strings. Thus, the following two rules are equivalent:
338 *
339 * <pre>
340 * $vowel=[aeiou]; $vowel>'*'; # One way to do this
341 * [aeiou]>'*'; # Another way
342 * </pre>
343 *
344 * <p>See {@link UnicodeSet} for more documentation and examples.
345 *
346 * <p><b>Segments</b>
347 *
348 * <p>Segments of the input string can be matched and copied to the
349 * output string. This makes certain sets of rules simpler and more
350 * general, and makes reordering possible. For example:
351 *
352 * <pre>
353 * ([a-z]) > $1 $1; # double lowercase letters
354 * ([:Lu:]) ([:Ll:]) > $2 $1; # reverse order of Lu-Ll pairs
355 * </pre>
356 *
357 * <p>The segment of the input string to be copied is delimited by
358 * "<code>(</code>" and "<code>)</code>". Up to
359 * nine segments may be defined. Segments may not overlap. In the
360 * output string, "<code>$1</code>" through "<code>$9</code>"
361 * represent the input string segments, in left-to-right order of
362 * definition.
363 *
364 * <p><b>Anchors</b>
365 *
366 * <p>Patterns can be anchored to the beginning or the end of the text. This is done with the
367 * special characters '<code>^</code>' and '<code>$</code>'. For example:
368 *
369 * <pre>
370 * ^ a > 'BEG_A'; # match 'a' at start of text
371 * a > 'A'; # match other instances of 'a'
372 * z $ > 'END_Z'; # match 'z' at end of text
373 * z > 'Z'; # match other instances of 'z'
374 * </pre>
375 *
376 * <p>It is also possible to match the beginning or the end of the text using a <code>UnicodeSet</code>.
377 * This is done by including a virtual anchor character '<code>$</code>' at the end of the
378 * set pattern. Although this is usually the match chafacter for the end anchor, the set will
379 * match either the beginning or the end of the text, depending on its placement. For
380 * example:
381 *
382 * <pre>
383 * $x = [a-z$]; # match 'a' through 'z' OR anchor
384 * $x 1 > 2; # match '1' after a-z or at the start
385 * 3 $x > 4; # match '3' before a-z or at the end
386 * </pre>
387 *
388 * <p><b>Example</b>
389 *
390 * <p>The following example rules illustrate many of the features of
391 * the rule language.
392 *
393 * <table border="0" cellpadding="4">
394 * <tr>
395 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Rule 1.</td>
396 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>abc{def}>x|y</code></td>
397 * </tr>
398 * <tr>
399 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Rule 2.</td>
400 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>xyz>r</code></td>
401 * </tr>
402 * <tr>
403 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Rule 3.</td>
404 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>yz>q</code></td>
405 * </tr>
406 * </table>
407 *
408 * <p>Applying these rules to the string "<code>adefabcdefz</code>"
409 * yields the following results:
410 *
411 * <table border="0" cellpadding="4">
412 * <tr>
413 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>|adefabcdefz</code></td>
414 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Initial state, no rules match. Advance
415 * cursor.</td>
416 * </tr>
417 * <tr>
418 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>a|defabcdefz</code></td>
419 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Still no match. Rule 1 does not match
420 * because the preceding context is not present.</td>
421 * </tr>
422 * <tr>
423 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>ad|efabcdefz</code></td>
424 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Still no match. Keep advancing until
425 * there is a match...</td>
426 * </tr>
427 * <tr>
428 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>ade|fabcdefz</code></td>
429 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">...</td>
430 * </tr>
431 * <tr>

442 * </tr>
443 * <tr>
444 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>adefabc|defz</code></td>
445 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Rule 1 matches; replace "<code>def</code>"
446 * with "<code>xy</code>" and back up the cursor
447 * to before the '<code>y</code>'.</td>
448 * </tr>
449 * <tr>
450 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>adefabcx|yz</code></td>
451 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">Although "<code>xyz</code>" is
452 * present, rule 2 does not match because the cursor is
453 * before the '<code>y</code>', not before the '<code>x</code>'.
454 * Rule 3 does match. Replace "<code>yz</code>"
455 * with "<code>q</code>".</td>
456 * </tr>
457 * <tr>
458 * <td style="vertical-align: top; write-space: nowrap;"><code>adefabcxq|</code></td>
459 * <td style="vertical-align: top;">The cursor is at the end;
460 * transliteration is complete.</td>
461 * </tr>
462 * </table>
463 *
464 * <p>The order of rules is significant. If multiple rules may match
465 * at some point, the first matching rule is applied.
466 *
467 * <p>Forward and reverse rules may have an empty output string.
468 * Otherwise, an empty left or right hand side of any statement is a
469 * syntax error.
470 *
471 * <p>Single quotes are used to quote any character other than a
472 * digit or letter. To specify a single quote itself, inside or
473 * outside of quotes, use two single quotes in a row. For example,
474 * the rule "<code>'>'>o''clock</code>" changes the
475 * string "<code>></code>" to the string "<code>o'clock</code>".
476 *
477 * <p><b>Notes</b>
478 *
479 * <p>While a Transliterator is being built from rules, it checks that
480 * the rules are added in proper order. For example, if the rule
481 * "a>x" is followed by the rule "ab>y",
482 * then the second rule will throw an exception. The reason is that
483 * the second rule can never be triggered, since the first rule
484 * always matches anything it matches. In other words, the first
485 * rule <em>masks</em> the second rule.
