<h2 class="section"> <a href="libunistring.html#TOC47">12.5 Normalization of streams of Unicode characters</a> </h2>

<p>A &ldquo;stream of Unicode characters&rdquo; is essentially a function that accepts an
<code>ucs4_t</code> argument repeatedly, optionally combined with a function that
&ldquo;flushes&rdquo; the stream.
</p>
<dl>
<dt><u>Type:</u> <b>struct uninorm_filter</b>
<a name="IDX689"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>This is the data type of a stream of Unicode characters that normalizes its
input according to a given normalization form and passes the normalized
character sequence to the encapsulated stream of Unicode characters.
</p></dd></dl>

<dl>
<dt><u>Function:</u> struct uninorm_filter * <b>uninorm_filter_create</b><i> (uninorm_t <var>nf</var>, int (*<var>stream_func</var>) (void *<var>stream_data</var>, ucs4_t <var>uc</var>), void *<var>stream_data</var>)</i>
<a name="IDX690"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Creates and returns a normalization filter for Unicode characters.
</p>
<p>The pair (<var>stream_func</var>, <var>stream_data</var>) is the encapsulated stream.
<code><var>stream_func</var> (<var>stream_data</var>, <var>uc</var>)</code> receives the Unicode
character <var>uc</var> and returns 0 if successful, or -1 with <code>errno</code> set
upon failure.
</p>
<p>Returns the new filter, or NULL with <code>errno</code> set upon failure.
</p></dd></dl>

<dl>
<dt><u>Function:</u> int <b>uninorm_filter_write</b><i> (struct uninorm_filter *<var>filter</var>, ucs4_t <var>uc</var>)</i>
<a name="IDX691"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Stuffs a Unicode character into a normalizing filter.
Returns 0 if successful, or -1 with <code>errno</code> set upon failure.

<dl>
<dt><u>Function:</u> int <b>uninorm_filter_flush</b><i> (struct uninorm_filter *<var>filter</var>)</i>
<a name="IDX692"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Brings data buffered in the filter to its destination, the encapsulated stream.
</p>
<p>Returns 0 if successful, or -1 with <code>errno</code> set upon failure.
</p>
<p>Note! If after calling this function, additional characters are written
into the filter, the resulting character sequence in the encapsulated stream
will not necessarily be normalized.

<dl>
<dt><u>Function:</u> int <b>uninorm_filter_free</b><i> (struct uninorm_filter *<var>filter</var>)</i>
<a name="IDX693"></a>

then closes and frees the filter.
</p>
<p>Returns 0 if successful, or -1 with <code>errno</code> set upon failure.
