## Detailed Description

A concrete subclass of CharacterIterator that iterates over the characters (code units or code points) in a UnicodeString.

It's possible not only to create an iterator that iterates over an entire UnicodeString, but also to create one that iterates over only a subrange of a UnicodeString (iterators over different subranges of the same UnicodeString don't compare equal).

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## StringCharacterIterator() [1/5]

icu::StringCharacterIterator::StringCharacterIterator | ( | const UnicodeString & | textStr | ) |

Create an iterator over the UnicodeString referred to by "textStr".

The UnicodeString object is copied. The iteration range is the whole string, and the starting position is 0.

Parameters

  textStr | The unicode string used to create an iterator

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## StringCharacterIterator() [2/5]

icu::StringCharacterIterator::StringCharacterIterator | ( | const UnicodeString & | textStr,
|  | int32_t | textPos
| ) |  |

Create an iterator over the UnicodeString referred to by "textStr".

The iteration range is the whole string, and the starting position is specified by "textPos". If "textPos" is outside the valid iteration range, the behavior of this object is undefined.

Parameters

  textStr | The unicode string used to create an iterator
  textPos | The starting position of the iteration

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## StringCharacterIterator() [3/5]

icu::StringCharacterIterator::StringCharacterIterator | ( | const UnicodeString & | textStr,
|  | int32_t | textBegin,
|  | int32_t | textEnd,
|  | int32_t | textPos
| ) |  |

Create an iterator over the UnicodeString referred to by "textStr".

The UnicodeString object is copied. The iteration range begins with the code unit specified by "textBegin" and ends with the code unit BEFORE the code unit specified by "textEnd". The starting position is specified by "textPos". If "textBegin" and "textEnd" don't form a valid range on "text" (i.e., textBegin >= textEnd or either is negative or greater than text.size()), or "textPos" is outside the range defined by "textBegin" and "textEnd", the behavior of this iterator is undefined.

Parameters

  textStr | The unicode string used to create the StringCharacterIterator
  textBegin | The begin position of the iteration range
  textEnd | The end position of the iteration range
  textPos | The starting position of the iteration

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## StringCharacterIterator() [4/5]

icu::StringCharacterIterator::StringCharacterIterator | ( | const StringCharacterIterator & | that | ) |

Copy constructor.

The new iterator iterates over the same range of the same string as "that", and its initial position is the same as "that"'s current position. The UnicodeString object in "that" is copied.

Parameters

  that | The StringCharacterIterator to be copied

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## getText()

virtual void icu::StringCharacterIterator::getText | ( | UnicodeString & | result | ) |

override virtual

Copies the UnicodeString under iteration into the UnicodeString referred to by "result".

Even if this iterator iterates across only a part of this string, the whole string is copied.

Parameters

  result | Receives a copy of the text under iteration.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

Reimplemented from icu::UCharCharacterIterator.

## operator=()

StringCharacterIterator & icu::StringCharacterIterator::operator= | ( | const StringCharacterIterator & | that | ) |

Assignment operator.

*this is altered to iterate over the same range of the same string as "that", and refers to the same character within that string as "that" does.

Parameters

  that | The object to be copied.

Returns
  the newly created object.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## operator==()

virtual bool icu::StringCharacterIterator::operator== | ( | const ForwardCharacterIterator & | that | ) | const

override virtual

Returns true if the iterators iterate over the same range of the same string and are pointing at the same character.

Parameters

  that | The ForwardCharacterIterator to be compared for equality

Returns
  true if the iterators iterate over the same range of the same string and are pointing at the same character.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

Reimplemented from icu::UCharCharacterIterator.

## setText()

void icu::StringCharacterIterator::setText | ( | const UnicodeString & | newText | ) |

Sets the iterator to iterate over the provided string.
