+ * \file
+ * \brief C API: Code point macros
+ *
+ * This file defines macros for checking whether a code point is
+ * a surrogate or a non-character etc.
+ *
+ * The UChar and UChar32 data types for Unicode code units and code points
+ * are defined in umachines.h because they can be machine-dependent.
+ *
+ * utf.h is included by utypes.h and itself includes utf8.h and utf16.h after some
+ * common definitions. Those files define macros for efficiently getting code points
+ * in and out of UTF-8/16 strings.
+ * utf16.h macros have "U16_" prefixes.
+ * utf8.h defines similar macros with "U8_" prefixes for UTF-8 string handling.
+ *
+ * ICU processes 16-bit Unicode strings.
+ * Most of the time, such strings are well-formed UTF-16.
+ * Single, unpaired surrogates must be handled as well, and are treated in ICU
+ * like regular code points where possible.
+ * (Pairs of surrogate code points are indistinguishable from supplementary
+ * code points encoded as pairs of supplementary code units.)
+ *
+ * In fact, almost all Unicode code points in normal text (>99%)
+ * are on the BMP (<=U+ffff) and even <=U+d7ff.
+ * ICU functions handle supplementary code points (U+10000..U+10ffff)
+ * but are optimized for the much more frequently occurring BMP code points.
+ *
+ * utf.h defines UChar to be an unsigned 16-bit integer. If this matches wchar_t, then
+ * UChar is defined to be exactly wchar_t, otherwise uint16_t.
+ *
+ * UChar32 is defined to be a signed 32-bit integer (int32_t), large enough for a 21-bit
+ * Unicode code point (Unicode scalar value, 0..0x10ffff).
+ * Before ICU 2.4, the definition of UChar32 was similarly platform-dependent as
+ * the definition of UChar. For details see the documentation for UChar32 itself.
+ *
+ * utf.h also defines a small number of C macros for single Unicode code points.
+ * These are simple checks for surrogates and non-characters.
+ * For actual Unicode character properties see uchar.h.
+ *
+ * By default, string operations must be done with error checking in case
+ * a string is not well-formed UTF-16.
+ * The macros will detect if a surrogate code unit is unpaired
+ * (lead unit without trail unit or vice versa) and just return the unit itself
+ * as the code point.
+ * (It is an accidental property of Unicode and UTF-16 that all
+ * malformed sequences can be expressed unambiguously with a distinct subrange
+ * of Unicode code points.)
+ *
+ * The regular "safe" macros require that the initial, passed-in string index
+ * is within bounds. They only check the index when they read more than one
+ * code unit. This is usually done with code similar to the following loop:
+ * <pre>while(i<length) {
+ *   U16_NEXT(s, i, length, c);
+ *   // use c
+ * }</pre>
+ *
+ * When it is safe to assume that text is well-formed UTF-16
+ * (does not contain single, unpaired surrogates), then one can use
+ * U16_..._UNSAFE macros.
+ * These do not check for proper code unit sequences or truncated text and may
+ * yield wrong results or even cause a crash if they are used with "malformed"
+ * text.
+ * In practice, U16_..._UNSAFE macros will produce slightly less code but
+ * should not be faster because the processing is only different when a
+ * surrogate code unit is detected, which will be rare.
+ *
+ * Similarly for UTF-8, there are "safe" macros without a suffix,
+ * and U8_..._UNSAFE versions.
+ * The performance differences are much larger here because UTF-8 provides so
+ * many opportunities for malformed sequences.
+ * The unsafe UTF-8 macros are entirely implemented inside the macro definitions
+ * and are fast, while the safe UTF-8 macros call functions for all but the
+ * trivial (ASCII) cases.
+ * (ICU 3.6 optimizes U8_NEXT() and U8_APPEND() to handle most other common
+ * characters inline as well.)
+ *
+ * Unlike with UTF-16, malformed sequences cannot be expressed with distinct
+ * code point values (0..U+10ffff). They are indicated with negative values instead.
+ *
+ * For more information see the ICU User Guide Strings chapter
+ * (http://icu-project.org/userguide/strings.html).
+ *
+ * <em>Usage:</em>
+ * ICU coding guidelines for if() statements should be followed when using these macros.
+ * Compound statements (curly braces {}) must be used  for if-else-while... 
+ * bodies and all macro statements should be terminated with semicolon.
