This codec tries to +convert visually ordered Hebrew (8859-8) to Unicode. This might +not always work perfectly, because reversing the <em>bidi</em> +(bi-directional) algorithm that transforms from logical to visual +order is non-trivial. +<p> Transformation from Unicode to visual Hebrew (8859-8) is done +using the bidi algorithm in Qt, and will produce correct results, +so long as the codec is given the text a whole paragraph at a +time. Places where newlines are supposed to go can be indicated by +a newline character ('\n'). Note that these newline characters +change the reordering behaviour of the algorithm, since the bidi +reordering only takes place within one line of text, whereas +line breaks are determined in visual order. +<p> Visually ordered Hebrew is still used quite often in some places, +mainly in email communication (since most email programs still +don't understand logically ordered Hebrew) and on web pages. The +use on web pages is rapidly decreasing, due to the availability of +browsers that correctly support logically ordered Hebrew. +<p> This codec has the name "iso8859-8". If you don't want any bidi +reordering to happen during conversion, use the "iso8859-8-i" +codec, which assumes logical order for the 8-bit string. +<p>See also <a href="i18n.html">Internationalization with Qt</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a href="qcstring.html">QCString</a> <a name="fromUnicode"></a>QHebrewCodec::fromUnicode ( const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & uc, int & lenInOut ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +Transforms the logically ordered <a href="qstring.html">QString</a>, <em>uc</em>, into a visually +ordered string in the 8859-8 encoding. Qt's bidi algorithm is used +to perform this task. Note that newline characters affect the +reordering, since reordering is done on a line by line basis. +<p> The algorithm is designed to work on whole paragraphs of text, so +processing a line at a time may produce incorrect results. This +approach is taken because the reordering of the contents of a +particular line in a paragraph may depend on the previous line in +the same paragraph. +<p> Some encodings (for example Japanese or UTF-8) are multibyte (so +one input character is mapped to two output characters). The <em>lenInOut</em> argument specifies the number of QChars that should be +converted and is set to the number of characters returned. + +<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qtextcodec.html#fromUnicode">QTextCodec</a>. +<h3 class=fn>const char * <a name="mimeName"></a>QHebrewCodec::mimeName () const<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +Returns the codec's mime name. + +<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qtextcodec.html#mimeName">QTextCodec</a>. +<!-- eof --> +<hr><p> +This file is part of the <a href="index.html">Qt toolkit</a>. +Copyright © 1995-2007 +<a href="http://www.trolltech.com/">Trolltech</a>.
