## Detailed Description

C API: API for accessing ICU version numbers.

Definition in file uversion.h.

## Macro Definition Documentation

## ◆ U_COPYRIGHT_STRING_LENGTH

#define U_COPYRIGHT_STRING_LENGTH 128

Maximum length of the copyright string.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

Definition at line 38 of file uversion.h.

## ◆ U_MAX_VERSION_LENGTH

#define U_MAX_VERSION_LENGTH 4

An ICU version consists of up to 4 numbers from 0..255.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

Definition at line 43 of file uversion.h.

## ◆ U_MAX_VERSION_STRING_LENGTH

#define U_MAX_VERSION_STRING_LENGTH 20

The maximum length of an ICU version string.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

Definition at line 53 of file uversion.h.

## ◆ U_VERSION_DELIMITER

#define U_VERSION_DELIMITER '.'

In a string, ICU version fields are delimited by dots.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

Definition at line 48 of file uversion.h.

## Typedef Documentation

## ◆ UVersionInfo

typedef uint8_t UVersionInfo[U_MAX_VERSION_LENGTH]

The binary form of a version on ICU APIs is an array of 4 uint8_t.

To compare two versions, use memcmp(v1,v2,sizeof(UVersionInfo)).

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

Definition at line 59 of file uversion.h.

## Function Documentation

## ◆ u_getVersion()

U_CAPI void u_getVersion | ( | UVersionInfo | versionArray | ) |

Gets the ICU release version.

The version array stores the version information for ICU. For example, release "1.3.31.2" is then represented as 0x01031F02. Definition of this function lives in putil.c

Parameters

  versionArray | the version # information, the result will be filled in

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## ◆ u_versionFromString()

U_CAPI void u_versionFromString | ( | UVersionInfo | versionArray,
|  | const char * | versionString
| ) |  |

Parse a string with dotted-decimal version information and fill in a UVersionInfo structure with the result.

Definition of this function lives in putil.c

Parameters

  versionArray | The destination structure for the version information.
  versionString | A string with dotted-decimal version information, with up to four non-negative number fields with values of up to 255 each.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4

## ◆ u_versionFromUString()

U_CAPI void u_versionFromUString | ( | UVersionInfo | versionArray,
|  | const UChar * | versionString
| ) |  |

Parse a Unicode string with dotted-decimal version information and fill in a UVersionInfo structure with the result.

Definition of this function lives in putil.c

Parameters

  versionArray | The destination structure for the version information.
  versionString | A Unicode string with dotted-decimal version information, with up to four non-negative number fields with values of up to 255 each.

Stable:
  ICU 4.2

## ◆ u_versionToString()

U_CAPI void u_versionToString | ( | const UVersionInfo | versionArray,
|  | char * | versionString
| ) |  |

Write a string with dotted-decimal version information according to the input UVersionInfo.

Definition of this function lives in putil.c

Parameters

  versionArray | The version information to be written as a string.
  versionString | A string buffer that will be filled in with a string corresponding to the numeric version information in versionArray. The buffer size must be at least U_MAX_VERSION_STRING_LENGTH.

Stable:
  ICU 2.4
