18 # Translate between Unicode character names and their code points. This is a
19 # submodule of package <charnames>, used to allow \N{...} to be autoloaded,
20 # but it was decided not to autoload the various functions in charnames; the
21 # splitting allows this behavior.
23 # The official names with their code points are stored in a table in
24 # lib/unicore/Name.pl which is read in as a large string (almost 3/4 Mb in
25 # Unicode 6.0). Each code point/name combination is separated by a \n in the
26 # string. (Some of the CJK and the Hangul syllable names are determined
27 # instead algorithmically via subroutines stored instead in
28 # lib/unicore/Name.pm). Because of the large size of this table, it isn't
29 # converted into hashes for faster lookup.
31 # But, user defined aliases are stored in their own hashes, as are Perl
32 # extensions to the official names. These are checked first before looking at
35 # Basically, the table is grepped for the input code point (viacode()) or
36 # name (the other functions), and the corresponding value on the same line is
37 # returned. The grepping is done by turning the input into a regular
38 # expression. Thus, the same table does double duty, used by both name and
39 # code point lookup. (If we were to have hashes, we would need two, one for
40 # each lookup direction.)
42 # For loose name matching, the logical thing would be to have a table
43 # with all the ignorable characters squeezed out, and then grep it with the
44 # similiarly-squeezed input name. (And this is in fact how the lookups are
45 # done with the small Perl extension hashes.) But since we need to be able to
46 # go from code point to official name, the original table would still need to
47 # exist. Due to the large size of the table, it was decided to not read
48 # another very large string into memory for a second table. Instead, the
49 # regular expression of the input name is modified to have optional spaces and
50 # dashes between characters. For example, in strict matching, the regular
51 # expression would be:
53 # Under loose matching, the blank would be squeezed out, and the re would be:
54 # qr/\tD[- ]?I[- ]?G[- ]?I[- ]?T[- ]?O[- ]?N[- ]?E$/m
55 # which matches a blank or dash between any characters in the official table.
57 # This is also how script lookup is done. Basically the re looks like
58 # qr/ (?:LATIN|GREEK|CYRILLIC) (?:SMALL )?LETTER $name/
59 # where $name is the loose or strict regex for the remainder of the name.
61 # The hashes are stored as utf8 strings. This makes it easier to deal with
62 # sequences. I (khw) also tried making Name.pl utf8, but it slowed things
63 # down by a factor of 7. I then tried making Name.pl store the ut8
64 # equivalents but not calling them utf8. That led to similar speed as leaving
65 # it alone, but since that is harder for a human to parse, I left it as-is.

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