# Translate between Unicode character names and their code points.  This is a
# submodule of package <charnames>, used to allow \N{...} to be autoloaded,
# but it was decided not to autoload the various functions in charnames; the
# splitting allows this behavior.
#
# The official names with their code points are stored in a table in
# lib/unicore/Name.pl which is read in as a large string (almost 3/4 Mb in
# Unicode 6.0).  Each code point/name combination is separated by a \n in the
# string.  (Some of the CJK and the Hangul syllable names are determined
# instead algorithmically via subroutines stored instead in
# lib/unicore/Name.pm).  Because of the large size of this table, it isn't
# converted into hashes for faster lookup.
#
# But, user defined aliases are stored in their own hashes, as are Perl
# extensions to the official names.  These are checked first before looking at
# the official table.
#
# Basically, the table is grepped for the input code point (viacode()) or
# name (the other functions), and the corresponding value on the same line is
# returned.  The grepping is done by turning the input into a regular
# expression.  Thus, the same table does double duty, used by both name and
# code point lookup.  (If we were to have hashes, we would need two, one for
# each lookup direction.)
#
# For loose name matching, the logical thing would be to have a table
# with all the ignorable characters squeezed out, and then grep it with the
# similiarly-squeezed input name.  (And this is in fact how the lookups are
# done with the small Perl extension hashes.)  But since we need to be able to
# go from code point to official name, the original table would still need to
# exist.  Due to the large size of the table, it was decided to not read
# another very large string into memory for a second table.  Instead, the
# regular expression of the input name is modified to have optional spaces and
# dashes between characters.  For example, in strict matching, the regular
# expression would be:
#   qr/\tDIGIT ONE$/m
# Under loose matching, the blank would be squeezed out, and the re would be:
#   qr/\tD[- ]?I[- ]?G[- ]?I[- ]?T[- ]?O[- ]?N[- ]?E$/m
# which matches a blank or dash between any characters in the official table.
#
# This is also how script lookup is done.  Basically the re looks like
#   qr/ (?:LATIN|GREEK|CYRILLIC) (?:SMALL )?LETTER $name/
# where $name is the loose or strict regex for the remainder of the name.

# The hashes are stored as utf8 strings.  This makes it easier to deal with
# sequences.  I (khw) also tried making Name.pl utf8, but it slowed things
# down by a factor of 7.  I then tried making Name.pl store the ut8
# equivalents but not calling them utf8.  That led to similar speed as leaving
# it alone, but since that is harder for a human to parse, I left it as-is.

my %full_names_cache; # Holds already-looked-up names, so don't have to
# re-look them up again.  The previous versions of charnames had scoping
# bugs.  For example if we use script A in one scope and find and cache
# what Z resolves to, we can't use that cache in a different scope that
# uses script B instead of A, as Z might be an entirely different letter
# there; or there might be different aliases in effect in different
# scopes, or :short may be in effect or not effect in different scopes,
# or various combinations thereof.  This was solved in this version
# mostly by moving things to %^H.  But some things couldn't be moved
# there.  One of them was the cache of runtime looked-up names, in part
# because %^H is read-only at runtime.  I (khw) don't know why the cache
# was run-time only in the previous versions: perhaps oversight; perhaps
# that compile time looking doesn't happen in a loop so didn't think it
# was worthwhile; perhaps not wanting to make the cache too large.  But
# I decided to make it compile time as well; this could easily be
# changed.
# Anyway, this hash is not scoped, and is added to at runtime.  It
# doesn't have scoping problems because the data in it is restricted to
# official names, which are always invariant, and we only set it and
# look at it at during :full lookups, so is unaffected by any other
# scoped options.  I put this in to maintain parity with the older
# version.  If desired, a %short_names cache could also be made, as well
# as one for each script, say in %script_names_cache, with each key
# being a hash for a script named in a 'use charnames' statement.  I
# decided not to do that for now, just because it's added complication,
# and because I'm just trying to maintain parity, not extend it.

# Like %full_names_cache, but for use when :loose is in effect.  There needs
# to be two caches because :loose may not be in effect for a scope, and a
# loose name could inappropriately be returned when only exact matching is
# called for.
