Module wasmtime_environ::__core::char

A character type.

The char type represents a single character. More specifically, since ‘character’ isn’t a well-defined concept in Unicode, char is a ‘Unicode scalar value’, which is similar to, but not the same as, a ‘Unicode code point’.

This module exists for technical reasons, the primary documentation for char is directly on the char primitive type itself.

This module is the home of the iterator implementations for the iterators implemented on char, as well as some useful constants and conversion functions that convert various types to char.

Structs

CharTryFromError

The error type returned when a conversion from u32 to char fails.

DecodeUtf16

An iterator that decodes UTF-16 encoded code points from an iterator of u16s.

DecodeUtf16Error

An error that can be returned when decoding UTF-16 code points.

EscapeDebug

An iterator that yields the literal escape code of a char.

EscapeDefault

An iterator that yields the literal escape code of a char.

EscapeUnicode

Returns an iterator that yields the hexadecimal Unicode escape of a character, as chars.

ParseCharError

An error which can be returned when parsing a char.

ToLowercase

Returns an iterator that yields the lowercase equivalent of a char.

ToUppercase

Returns an iterator that yields the uppercase equivalent of a char.

TryFromCharError

The error type returned when a checked char conversion fails.

Constants

MAX

The highest valid code point a char can have, '\u{10FFFF}'.

REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER

U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER (�) is used in Unicode to represent a decoding error.

UNICODE_VERSION

The version of Unicode that the Unicode parts of char and str methods are based on.

Functions

decode_utf16

Creates an iterator over the UTF-16 encoded code points in iter, returning unpaired surrogates as Errs.

from_digit

Converts a digit in the given radix to a char.

from_u32

Converts a u32 to a char.

from_u32_unchecked^⚠

Converts a u32 to a char, ignoring validity.
