About

This code allows to process Unicode text and determine for unicode chars:

  • if char "letter"
  • if char "digit"
  • if char upper-case, lower-case
  • if char "white space"
  • if char "punctuation"
  • etc.

Also it has class to read/write Unicode from/to TStream.

Units

Using streams

Unit "charencstreams": load/save data from/to almost any text source:

  • ANSI, UTF8, UTF16, UTF32
  • big-endian, little-endian
  • with/without BOM

Demo:

 f := TCharEncStream.Create;
 f.LoadFromFile(OpenDialog1.FileName);
 Memo1.Text := f.UTF8Text;  
 f.Free;

Character info

Unit "character": get information about code points using the TCharacter class. Demo:

 if TCharacter.IsLetter(s[i]) then
    s[i] := TCharacter.toLower(s[i]);


Access UTF-8 by code index

Unit "utf8scanner": access UTF-8 strings by code index, use case statements on UTF-8 strings and more. Demo:

 s := TUTF8Scanner.Create(Memo1.Text);
 for i := 1 to s.Length do
   if TCharacter.IsLetter(s[i]) then
     s[i] := TCharacter.toLower(s[i]);
 Memo1.Text := s.UTF8String;
 s.Free;

Case demo:

  s := TUTF8Scanner.Create(Memo1.Text);
  s.FindChars := 'öäü';
  repeat
    case s.FindIndex(s.Next) of
  {ö} 0: s.Replace('oe');
  {ä} 1: s.Replace('ae');
  {ü} 2: s.Replace('ue');
    end;
  until s.Done;
  Memo1.Text := s.UTF8String;
  s.Free;
