NAME

RkMapRoma - perform Romaji-kana conversion by using a specified Romaji-kana conversion table

SYNOPSIS

#include <canna/RK.h>
int RkMapRoma(romaji, dst, maxdst, src, srclen, flags, status)
struct RkRxDic *romaji;
unsigned char *dst;
int maxdst;
unsigned char *src;
int srclen;
int flags;
int *status;

DESCRIPTION

RkMapRoma performs Romaji-kana conversion by using a specified Romaji-kana conversion table. romaji specifies a pointer to the Romaji-kana conversion table that has been returned by RkOpenRoma(3) . RkMapRoma interprets the srclen bytes of contiguous data starting at the area src as a Romaji character string and searches through the Romaji-kana conversion table for the rule of Romaji-kana conversion that matches the beginning of the Romaji character string. If the corresponding conversion rule is found, the corresponding kana character string is stored in the area dst . The resulting character string is truncated when its byte length exceeds maxdst -1. dst is padded with null characters at the end if possible.

flags is a combination of the following Romaji-kana conversion flags connected by or:

RK_SOKUON

Enables gemination, in which a sequence of two occurrences of the same character, xx, is converted to small kana character "tsu" only if it is not defined in the Romaji-kana conversion table file.

RK_FLUSH

Converts all Romaji characters compulsorily. Useful for handling n appearing at the end of a character string.

The flags listed below specify the type of characters stored in src . These specified code conversion to be performed on the character string derived from the Romaji-kana conversion table. These flags can use one by one.

RK_NFER

No conversion

RK_XFER

Hiragana

RK_HFER

Single-byte character

RK_KFER

Katakana

RK_ZFER

Double-byte character

status is set to the byte length of the character string set in the area dst . A negative value means that there is no matching Romaji character string.

RETURN VALUE

This function returns the starting byte length of the Romaji character string matched by Romaji-kana conversion.
