UTF-8 enoded strings

type t = string

Type of UTF-8 encoded strings.

exception Invalid of string * string

Invalid(error, text) Exception raised when an invalid UTF-8 encoded string is encountered. text is the faulty text and error is a description of the first error in text.

exception Out_of_bounds

Exception raised when trying to access a character which is outside the bounds of a string.

Validation

type check_result =

| Correct of int
(*
The string is correctly UTF-8 encoded, and the paramter is the length of the string.
*)
| Message of string
(*
The string is invalid and the parameter is an error message.
*)

Result of cheking a string for correct UTF-8.

val check : t -> check_result

check str checks that str is a valid UTF-8 encoded string.

val validate : t -> int

Same as check but raises an exception in case the argument is not a valid text, otherwise returns the length of the string.

val next_error : t -> int -> int * int * string

next_error str ofs returns (ofs', count, msg) where ofs' is the offset of the start of the first invalid sequence after ofs (inclusive) in str, count is the number of unicode character between ofs and ofs' (exclusive) and msg is an error message. If there is no error until the end of string then ofs is String.length str and msg is the empty string.

raises [Zed_utf8.Invalid]
if str is not a correct UTF8 sequence.

raises [Zed_utf8.Out_of_bounds]
if ofs not an index of str.

Construction

val singleton : Uchar.t -> t

singleton ch creates a string of length 1 containing only the given character.

val make : int -> Uchar.t -> t

make n ch creates a string of length n filled with ch.

val init : int -> (int -> Uchar.t) -> t
