| /** |
| * Shape Arabic text on a character basis. |
| * |
| * <p>This function performs basic operations for "shaping" Arabic text. It is most |
| * useful for use with legacy data formats and legacy display technology |
| * (simple terminals). All operations are performed on Unicode characters.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>Text-based shaping means that some character code points in the text are |
| * replaced by others depending on the context. It transforms one kind of text |
| * into another. In comparison, modern displays for Arabic text select |
| * appropriate, context-dependent font glyphs for each text element, which means |
| * that they transform text into a glyph vector.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>Text transformations are necessary when modern display technology is not |
| * available or when text needs to be transformed to or from legacy formats that |
| * use "shaped" characters. Since the Arabic script is cursive, connecting |
| * adjacent letters to each other, computers select images for each letter based |
| * on the surrounding letters. This usually results in four images per Arabic |
| * letter: initial, middle, final, and isolated forms. In Unicode, on the other |
| * hand, letters are normally stored abstract, and a display system is expected |
| * to select the necessary glyphs. (This makes searching and other text |
| * processing easier because the same letter has only one code.) It is possible |
| * to mimic this with text transformations because there are characters in |
| * Unicode that are rendered as letters with a specific shape |
| * (or cursive connectivity). They were included for interoperability with |
| * legacy systems and codepages, and for unsophisticated display systems.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>A second kind of text transformations is supported for Arabic digits: |
| * For compatibility with legacy codepages that only include European digits, |
| * it is possible to replace one set of digits by another, changing the |
| * character code points. These operations can be performed for either |
| * Arabic-Indic Digits (U+0660...U+0669) or Eastern (Extended) Arabic-Indic |
| * digits (U+06f0...U+06f9).</p> |
| * |
| * <p>Some replacements may result in more or fewer characters (code points). |
| * By default, this means that the destination buffer may receive text with a |
| * length different from the source length. Some legacy systems rely on the |
| * length of the text to be constant. They expect extra spaces to be added |
| * or consumed either next to the affected character or at the end of the |
| * text.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>For details about the available operations, see the description of the |
| * <code>U_SHAPE_...</code> options.</p> |
| * |
| * @param source The input text. |
| * |
| * @param sourceLength The number of UChars in <code>source</code>. |
| * |
| * @param dest The destination buffer that will receive the results of the |
| * requested operations. It may be <code>NULL</code> only if |
| * <code>destSize</code> is 0. The source and destination must not |
| * overlap. |
| * |
| * @param destSize The size (capacity) of the destination buffer in UChars. |
| * If <code>destSize</code> is 0, then no output is produced, |
| * but the necessary buffer size is returned ("preflighting"). |
| * |
| * @param options This is a 32-bit set of flags that specify the operations |
| * that are performed on the input text. If no error occurs, |
| * then the result will always be written to the destination |
| * buffer. |
| * |
| * @param pErrorCode must be a valid pointer to an error code value, |
| * which must not indicate a failure before the function call. |
| * |
| * @return The number of UChars written to the destination buffer. |
| * If an error occured, then no output was written, or it may be |
| * incomplete. If <code>U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR</code> is set, then |
| * the return value indicates the necessary destination buffer size. |
