Expand description
The ucd-trie crate provides a compressed trie set specifically tailored for Unicode codepoints. The principle use case for such a trie is to represent properties defined by Unicode that correspond to sets of Unicode codepoints. (These properties are formally called boolean properties or “single valued” properties. See UTR#23 S3.3 for more details.)
This crate has two principle types: TrieSetOwned
and TrieSetSlice
,
corresponding to a similar split as there is between Vec<T>
and &[T]
.
TrieSetOwned
is the only way to construct a trie from a set of Unicode
codepoints.
The intended use of this library is to embed a static instance of
TrieSetSlice
into your source code, and then use its methods as defined in
this crate to test membership. (The ucd-generate
tool can likely generate
this code for you.)
Finally, while this crate uses the standard library by default, it provides
no_std
functionality by disabling the std
feature. When no_std
is
enabled, then TrieSetOwned
is not provided. Instead, only TrieSetSlice
is
provided, which means no_std
crates can still embed tries into their code.
Structs§
- An owned trie set.
- A borrowed trie set.
Enums§
- An error that can occur during construction of a trie.
Type Aliases§
- A type alias that maps to
std::result::Result<T, ucd_trie::Error>
. - A type alias for
TrieSetSlice<'static>
.
