## Detailed Description

C API: Unicode Properties.

This C API provides low-level access to the Unicode Character Database. In addition to raw property values, some convenience functions calculate derived properties, for example for Java-style programming.

Unicode assigns each code point (not just assigned character) values for many properties. Most of them are simple boolean flags, or constants from a small enumerated list. For some properties, values are strings or other relatively more complex types.

For more information see "About the Unicode Character Database" (http://www.unicode.org/ucd/) and the ICU User Guide chapter on Properties (https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/strings/properties).

Many properties are accessible via generic functions that take a UProperty selector.

- u_hasBinaryProperty() returns a binary value (true/false) per property and code point.
- u_getIntPropertyValue() returns an integer value per property and code point. For each supported enumerated or catalog property, there is an enum type for all of the property's values, and u_getIntPropertyValue() returns the numeric values of those constants.
- u_getBinaryPropertySet() returns a set for each ICU-supported binary property with all code points for which the property is true.
- u_getIntPropertyMap() returns a map for each ICU-supported enumerated/catalog/int-valued property which maps all Unicode code points to their values for that property.

Many functions are designed to match java.lang.Character functions. See the individual function documentation, and see the JDK 1.4 java.lang.Character documentation at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html

There are also functions that provide easy migration from C/POSIX functions like isblank(). Their use is generally discouraged because the C/POSIX standards do not define their semantics beyond the ASCII range, which means that different implementations exhibit very different behavior. Instead, Unicode properties should be used directly.

There are also only a few, broad C/POSIX character classes, and they tend to be used for conflicting purposes. For example, the "isalpha()" class is sometimes used to determine word boundaries, while a more sophisticated approach would at least distinguish initial letters from continuation characters (the latter including combining marks). (In ICU, BreakIterator is the most sophisticated API for word boundaries.) Another example: There is no "istitle()" class for titlecase characters.

ICU 3.4 and later provides API access for all twelve C/POSIX character classes. ICU implements them according to the Standard Recommendations in Annex C: Compatibility Properties of UTS #18 Unicode Regular Expressions (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties).

API access for C/POSIX character classes is as follows:

- alpha: u_isUAlphabetic(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_ALPHABETIC)
- lower: u_isULowercase(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_LOWERCASE)
- upper: u_isUUppercase(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_UPPERCASE)
- punct: u_ispunct(c)
- digit: u_isdigit(c) or u_charType(c)==U_DECIMAL_DIGIT_NUMBER
- xdigit: u_isxdigit(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_POSIX_XDIGIT)
- alnum: u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_POSIX_ALNUM)
- space: u_isUWhiteSpace(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_WHITE_SPACE)
- blank: u_isblank(c) or u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_POSIX_BLANK)
- cntrl: u_charType(c)==U_CONTROL_CHAR
- graph: u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_POSIX_GRAPH)
- print: u_hasBinaryProperty(c, UCHAR_POSIX_PRINT)

Note: Some of the u_isxyz() functions in uchar.h predate, and do not match, the Standard Recommendations in UTS #18. Instead, they match Java functions according to their API documentation.

The C/POSIX character classes are also available in UnicodeSet patterns, using patterns like [:graph:] or \p{graph}.

Note: There are several ICU whitespace functions. Comparison:

- u_isUWhiteSpace=UCHAR_WHITE_SPACE: Unicode White_Space property; most of general categories "Z" (separators) + most whitespace ISO controls (including no-break spaces, but excluding IS1..IS4)
- u_isWhitespace: Java isWhitespace; Z + whitespace ISO controls but excluding no-break spaces
- u_isJavaSpaceChar: Java isSpaceChar; just Z (including no-break spaces)
- u_isspace: Z + whitespace ISO controls (including no-break spaces)
- u_isblank: "horizontal spaces" = TAB + Zs

## ◆ UProperty

enum UProperty

Selection constants for Unicode properties.

These constants are used in functions like u_hasBinaryProperty to select one of the Unicode properties.

The properties APIs are intended to reflect Unicode properties as defined in the Unicode Character Database (UCD) and Unicode Technical Reports (UTR).

For details about the properties see UAX #44: Unicode Character Database (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/).

Important: If ICU is built with UCD files from Unicode versions below, e.g., 3.2, then properties marked with "new in Unicode 3.2" are not or not fully available. Check u_getUnicodeVersion to be sure.

## ◆ UPropertyNameChoice

enum UPropertyNameChoice

Selector constants for u_getPropertyName() and u_getPropertyValueName().

These selectors are used to choose which name is returned for a given property or value. All properties and values have a long name. Most have a short name, but some do not. Unicode allows for additional names, beyond the long and short name, which would be indicated by U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME + i, where i=1, 2,...

## Function Documentation

## ◆ u_charAge()

U_CAPI void u_charAge | ( | UChar32 | c,
|  | UVersionInfo | versionArray
| ) |  |

Get the "age" of the code point.

The "age" is the Unicode version when the code point was first designated (as a non-character or for Private Use) or assigned a character. This can be useful to avoid emitting code points to receiving processes that do not accept newer characters. The data is from the UCD file DerivedAge.txt.

Parameters

  c | The code point.
  versionArray | The Unicode version number array, to be filled in.

Stable:
  ICU 2.1

## ◆ u_charDigitValue()

U_CAPI int32_t u_charDigitValue | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Returns the decimal digit value of a decimal digit character.

Such characters have the general category "Nd" (decimal digit numbers) and a Numeric_Type of Decimal.

Unlike ICU releases before 2.6, no digit values are returned for any Han characters because Han number characters are often used with a special Chinese-style number format (with characters for powers of 10 in between) instead of in decimal-positional notation. Unicode 4 explicitly assigns Han number characters the Numeric_Type Numeric instead of Decimal. See Jitterbug 1483 for more details.

Use u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_NUMERIC_TYPE) and u_getNumericValue() for complete numeric Unicode properties.

Parameters

  c | the code point for which to get the decimal digit value

Returns
  the decimal digit value of c, or -1 if c is not a decimal digit character

See also
  u_getNumericValue

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

Referenced by icu::DecimalFormatSymbols::setSymbol().

## ◆ u_charDirection()

U_CAPI UCharDirection u_charDirection | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Returns the bidirectional category value for the code point, which is used in the Unicode bidirectional algorithm (UAX #9 http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr9/).

Note that some unassigned code points have bidi values of R or AL because they are in blocks that are reserved for Right-To-Left scripts.

Same as java.lang.Character.getDirectionality()

Parameters

  c | the code point to be tested

Returns
  the bidirectional category (UCharDirection) value

See also
  UCharDirection

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## ◆ u_charFromName()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_charFromName | ( | UCharNameChoice | nameChoice,
|  | const char * | name,
|  | UErrorCode * | pErrorCode
| ) |  |

Find a Unicode character by its name and return its code point value.

The name is matched exactly and completely. If the name does not correspond to a code point, pErrorCode is set to `U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND`. A Unicode 1.0 name is matched only if it differs from the modern name. Unicode names are all uppercase. Extended names are lowercase followed by an uppercase hexadecimal number, and within angle brackets.

Parameters

  nameChoice | Selector for which name to match.
  name | The name to match.
  pErrorCode | Pointer to a UErrorCode variable

Returns
  The Unicode value of the code point with the given name, or an undefined value if there is no such code point.

## ◆ u_charMirror()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_charMirror | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Maps the specified character to a "mirror-image" character.

For characters with the Bidi_Mirrored property, implementations sometimes need a "poor man's" mapping to another Unicode character (code point) such that the default glyph may serve as the mirror-image of the default glyph of the specified character. This is useful for text conversion to and from codepages with visual order, and for displays without glyph selection capabilities.

Parameters

  c | the code point to be mapped

Returns
  another Unicode code point that may serve as a mirror-image substitute, or c itself if there is no such mapping or c does not have the Bidi_Mirrored property

## ◆ u_charName()

U_CAPI int32_t u_charName | ( | UChar32 | code,
|  | UCharNameChoice | nameChoice,
|  | char * | buffer,
|  | int32_t | bufferLength,
|  | UErrorCode * | pErrorCode
| ) |  |

Retrieve the name of a Unicode character.

Depending on `nameChoice`, the character name written into the buffer is the "modern" name or the name that was defined in Unicode version 1.0. The name contains only "invariant" characters like A-Z, 0-9, space, and '-'. Unicode 1.0 names are only retrieved if they are different from the modern names and if the data file contains the data for them. gennames may or may not be called with a command line option to include 1.0 names in unames.dat.

Parameters

  code | The character (code point) for which to get the name. It must be `0<=code<=0x10ffff`.
  nameChoice | Selector for which name to get.
  buffer | Destination address for copying the name. The name will always be zero-terminated. If there is no name, then the buffer will be set to the empty string.
  bufferLength | `==sizeof(buffer)`
  pErrorCode | Pointer to a UErrorCode variable; check for `U_SUCCESS()` after `u_charName()` returns.

Returns
  The length of the name, or 0 if there is no name for this character. If the bufferLength is less than or equal to the length, then the buffer contains the truncated name and the returned length indicates the full length of the name. The length does not include the zero-termination.

## ◆ u_charType()

U_CAPI int8_t u_charType | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Returns the general category value for the code point.

Same as java.lang.Character.getType().

Parameters

## ◆ u_digit()

U_CAPI int32_t u_digit | ( | UChar32 | ch,
|  | int8_t | radix
| ) |  |

Returns the decimal digit value of the code point in the specified radix.

If the radix is not in the range `2<=radix<=36` or if the value of `c` is not a valid digit in the specified radix, `-1` is returned. A character is a valid digit if at least one of the following is true:

- The character has a decimal digit value. Such characters have the general category "Nd" (decimal digit numbers) and a Numeric_Type of Decimal. In this case the value is the character's decimal digit value.
- The character is one of the uppercase Latin letters `'A'` through `'Z'`. In this case the value is `c-'A'+10`.
- The character is one of the lowercase Latin letters `'a'` through `'z'`. In this case the value is `ch-'a'+10`.
- Latin letters from both the ASCII range (0061..007A, 0041..005A) as well as from the Fullwidth ASCII range (FF41..FF5A, FF21..FF3A) are recognized.

Same as java.lang.Character.digit().

Parameters

  ch | the code point to be tested.
  radix | the radix.

Returns
  the numeric value represented by the character in the specified radix, or -1 if there is no value or if the value exceeds the radix.

## ◆ u_enumCharNames()

U_CAPI void u_enumCharNames | ( | UChar32 | start,
|  | UChar32 | limit,
|  | UEnumCharNamesFn * | fn,
|  | void * | context,
|  | UCharNameChoice | nameChoice,
|  | UErrorCode * | pErrorCode
| ) |  |

Enumerate all assigned Unicode characters between the start and limit code points (start inclusive, limit exclusive) and call a function for each, passing the code point value and the character name.

For Unicode 1.0 names, only those are enumerated that differ from the modern names.

Parameters

  start | The first code point in the enumeration range.
  limit | One more than the last code point in the enumeration range (the first one after the range).
  fn | The function that is to be called for each character name.
  context | An arbitrary pointer that is passed to the function.
  nameChoice | Selector for which kind of names to enumerate.
  pErrorCode | Pointer to a UErrorCode variable

## ◆ u_enumCharTypes()

U_CAPI void u_enumCharTypes | ( | UCharEnumTypeRange * | enumRange,
|  | const void * | context
| ) |  |

Enumerate efficiently all code points with their Unicode general categories.

This is useful for building data structures (e.g., UnicodeSet's), for enumerating all assigned code points (type!=U_UNASSIGNED), etc.

For each contiguous range of code points with a given general category ("character type"), the UCharEnumTypeRange function is called. Adjacent ranges have different types. The Unicode Standard guarantees that the numeric value of the type is 0..31.

Parameters

  enumRange | a pointer to a function that is called for each contiguous range of code points with the same general category
  context | an opaque pointer that is passed on to the callback function

## ◆ u_foldCase()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_foldCase | ( | UChar32 | c,
|  | uint32_t | options
| ) |  |

The given character is mapped to its case folding equivalent according to UnicodeData.txt and CaseFolding.txt; if the character has no case folding equivalent, the character itself is returned.

This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. Full case mappings should be used whenever possible because they produce better results by working on whole strings. They take into account the string context and the language and can map to a result string with a different length as appropriate. Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. See also the User Guide chapter on C/POSIX migration: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu/posix#case-mappings

Parameters

  c | the code point to be mapped
  options | Either U_FOLD_CASE_DEFAULT or U_FOLD_CASE_EXCLUDE_SPECIAL_I

Returns
  the Simple_Case_Folding of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## ◆ u_forDigit()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_forDigit | ( | int32_t | digit,
|  | int8_t | radix
| ) |  |

Determines the character representation for a specific digit in the specified radix.

If the value of `radix` is not a valid radix, or the value of `digit` is not a valid digit in the specified radix, the null character (`U+0000`) is returned.

The `radix` argument is valid if it is greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 36. The `digit` argument is valid if `0 <= digit < radix`.

If the digit is less than 10, then `'0' + digit` is returned. Otherwise, the value `'a' + digit - 10` is returned.

Same as java.lang.Character.forDigit().

Parameters

  digit | the number to convert to a character.
  radix | the radix.

Returns
  the `char` representation of the specified digit in the specified radix.

## ◆ u_getBidiPairedBracket()

U_CAPI UChar32 u_getBidiPairedBracket | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Maps the specified character to its paired bracket character.

For Bidi_Paired_Bracket_Type!=None, this is the same as u_charMirror(). Otherwise c itself is returned. See http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr9/

Parameters

  c | the code point to be mapped

Returns

## ◆ u_getIntPropertyValue()

U_CAPI int32_t u_getIntPropertyValue | ( | UChar32 | c,
|  | UProperty | which
| ) |  |

Get the property value for an enumerated or integer Unicode property for a code point.

Also returns binary and mask property values.

Unicode, especially in version 3.2, defines many more properties than the original set in UnicodeData.txt.

The properties APIs are intended to reflect Unicode properties as defined in the Unicode Character Database (UCD) and Unicode Technical Reports (UTR). For details about the properties see http://www.unicode.org/ . For names of Unicode properties see the UCD file PropertyAliases.txt.

Sample usage: UEastAsianWidth ea=(UEastAsianWidth)u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_EAST_ASIAN_WIDTH); UBool b=(UBool)u_getIntPropertyValue(c, UCHAR_IDEOGRAPHIC);

Parameters

  c | Code point to test.
  which | UProperty selector constant, identifies which property to check. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT or UCHAR_INT_START<=which<UCHAR_INT_LIMIT or UCHAR_MASK_START<=which<UCHAR_MASK_LIMIT.

Returns
  Numeric value that is directly the property value or, for enumerated properties, corresponds to the numeric value of the enumerated constant of the respective property value enumeration type (cast to enum type if necessary). Returns 0 or 1 (for false/true) for binary Unicode properties. Returns a bit-mask for mask properties. Returns 0 if 'which' is out of bounds or if the Unicode version does not have data for the property at all, or not for this code point.

Returns an empty string.

Used to return the ISO 10646 comment for a character. The Unicode ISO_Comment property is deprecated and has no values.

Parameters

  c | The character (code point) for which to get the ISO comment. It must be `0<=c<=0x10ffff`.
  dest | Destination address for copying the comment. The comment will be zero-terminated if possible. If there is no comment, then the buffer will be set to the empty string.
  destCapacity | `==sizeof(dest)`
  pErrorCode | Pointer to a UErrorCode variable; check for `U_SUCCESS()` after `u_getISOComment()` returns.

Returns

## ◆ u_getNumericValue()

U_CAPI double u_getNumericValue | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Get the numeric value for a Unicode code point as defined in the Unicode Character Database.

A "double" return type is necessary because some numeric values are fractions, negative, or too large for int32_t.

For characters without any numeric values in the Unicode Character Database, this function will return U_NO_NUMERIC_VALUE. Note: This is different from the Unicode Standard which specifies NaN as the default value. (NaN is not available on all platforms.)

Similar to java.lang.Character.getNumericValue(), but u_getNumericValue() also supports negative values, large values, and fractions, while Java's getNumericValue() returns values 10..35 for ASCII letters.

Parameters

  c | Code point to get the numeric value for.

Returns

## ◆ u_getPropertyEnum()

U_CAPI UProperty u_getPropertyEnum | ( | const char * | alias | ) |

Return the UProperty enum for a given property name, as specified in the Unicode database file PropertyAliases.txt.

Short, long, and any other variants are recognized.

In addition, this function maps the synthetic names "gcm" / "General_Category_Mask" to the property UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK. These names are not in PropertyAliases.txt.

Parameters

  alias | the property name to be matched. The name is compared using "loose matching" as described in PropertyAliases.txt.

Returns
  a UProperty enum, or UCHAR_INVALID_CODE if the given name does not match any property.

## ◆ u_getPropertyName()

U_CAPI const char * u_getPropertyName | ( | UProperty | property,
|  | UPropertyNameChoice | nameChoice

Return the Unicode name for a given property, as given in the Unicode database file PropertyAliases.txt.

In addition, this function maps the property UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK to the synthetic names "gcm" / "General_Category_Mask". These names are not in PropertyAliases.txt.

Parameters

  property | UProperty selector other than UCHAR_INVALID_CODE. If out of range, NULL is returned.
  nameChoice | selector for which name to get. If out of range, NULL is returned. All properties have a long name. Most have a short name, but some do not. Unicode allows for additional names; if present these will be returned by U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME + i, where i=1, 2,...

Returns
  a pointer to the name, or NULL if either the property or the nameChoice is out of range. If a given nameChoice returns NULL, then all larger values of nameChoice will return NULL, with one exception: if NULL is returned for U_SHORT_PROPERTY_NAME, then U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME (and higher) may still return a non-NULL value. The returned pointer is valid until u_cleanup() is called.

Return the property value integer for a given value name, as specified in the Unicode database file PropertyValueAliases.txt.

Short, long, and any other variants are recognized.

Note: Some of the names in PropertyValueAliases.txt will only be recognized with UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK, not UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY. These include: "C" / "Other", "L" / "Letter", "LC" / "Cased_Letter", "M" / "Mark", "N" / "Number", "P" / "Punctuation", "S" / "Symbol", and "Z" / "Separator".

Parameters

  property | UProperty selector constant. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT or UCHAR_INT_START<=which<UCHAR_INT_LIMIT or UCHAR_MASK_START<=which<UCHAR_MASK_LIMIT. If out of range, UCHAR_INVALID_CODE is returned.
  alias | the value name to be matched. The name is compared using "loose matching" as described in PropertyValueAliases.txt.

Returns
  a value integer or UCHAR_INVALID_CODE if the given name does not match any value of the given property, or if the property is invalid. Note: UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK values are not values of UCharCategory, but rather mask values produced by U_GET_GC_MASK(). This allows grouped categories such as [:L:] to be represented.

Note: Some of the names in PropertyValueAliases.txt can only be retrieved using UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK, not UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY. These include: "C" / "Other", "L" / "Letter", "LC" / "Cased_Letter", "M" / "Mark", "N" / "Number", "P" / "Punctuation", "S" / "Symbol", and "Z" / "Separator".

Parameters

  property | UProperty selector constant. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT or UCHAR_INT_START<=which<UCHAR_INT_LIMIT or UCHAR_MASK_START<=which<UCHAR_MASK_LIMIT. If out of range, NULL is returned.
  value | selector for a value for the given property. If out of range, NULL is returned. In general, valid values range from 0 up to some maximum. There are a few exceptions: (1.) UCHAR_BLOCK values begin at the non-zero value UBLOCK_BASIC_LATIN. (2.) UCHAR_CANONICAL_COMBINING_CLASS values are not contiguous and range from 0..240. (3.) UCHAR_GENERAL_CATEGORY_MASK values are not values of UCharCategory, but rather mask values produced by U_GET_GC_MASK(). This allows grouped categories such as [:L:] to be represented. Mask values range non-contiguously from 1..U_GC_P_MASK.
  nameChoice | selector for which name to get. If out of range, NULL is returned. All values have a long name. Most have a short name, but some do not. Unicode allows for additional names; if present these will be returned by U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME + i, where i=1, 2,...

Returns
  a pointer to the name, or NULL if either the property or the nameChoice is out of range. If a given nameChoice returns NULL, then all larger values of nameChoice will return NULL, with one exception: if NULL is returned for U_SHORT_PROPERTY_NAME, then U_LONG_PROPERTY_NAME (and higher) may still return a non-NULL value. The returned pointer is valid until u_cleanup() is called.

## ◆ u_hasBinaryProperty()

U_CAPI UBool u_hasBinaryProperty | ( | UChar32 | c,
|  | UProperty | which
| ) |  |

Check a binary Unicode property for a code point.

Unicode, especially in version 3.2, defines many more properties than the original set in UnicodeData.txt.

The properties APIs are intended to reflect Unicode properties as defined in the Unicode Character Database (UCD) and Unicode Technical Reports (UTR). For details about the properties see http://www.unicode.org/ucd/ . For names of Unicode properties see the UCD file PropertyAliases.txt.

Important: If ICU is built with UCD files from Unicode versions below 3.2, then properties marked with "new in Unicode 3.2" are not or not fully available.

Parameters

  c | Code point to test.
  which | UProperty selector constant, identifies which binary property to check. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT.

Returns
  true or false according to the binary Unicode property value for c. Also false if 'which' is out of bounds or if the Unicode version does not have data for the property at all.

U_CAPI UBool u_isWhitespace | ( | UChar32 | c | ) |

Determines if the specified code point is a whitespace character according to Java/ICU.

A character is considered to be a Java whitespace character if and only if it satisfies one of the following criteria:

- It is a Unicode Separator character (categories "Z" = "Zs" or "Zl" or "Zp"), but is not also a non-breaking space (U+00A0 NBSP or U+2007 Figure Space or U+202F Narrow NBSP).
- It is U+0009 HORIZONTAL TABULATION.
- It is U+000A LINE FEED.
- It is U+000B VERTICAL TABULATION.
- It is U+000C FORM FEED.
- It is U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN.
- It is U+001C FILE SEPARATOR.
- It is U+001D GROUP SEPARATOR.
- It is U+001E RECORD SEPARATOR.
- It is U+001F UNIT SEPARATOR.

This API tries to sync with the semantics of Java's java.lang.Character.isWhitespace(), but it may not return the exact same results because of the Unicode version difference.

Note: Unicode 4.0.1 changed U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE from a Space Separator (Zs) to a Format Control (Cf). Since then, isWhitespace(0x200b) returns false. See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.0.1/

| ) |  |

Returns true if the property is true for the string.

Same as u_hasBinaryProperty(single code point, which) if the string contains exactly one code point.

Most properties apply only to single code points. UTS #51 Unicode Emoji defines several properties of strings.

Parameters

  s | String to test.
  length | Length of the string, or negative if NUL-terminated.
  which | UProperty selector constant, identifies which binary property to check. Must be UCHAR_BINARY_START<=which<UCHAR_BINARY_LIMIT.
