This is the normal standard way in C, C++ as well as Java and there's no
longer any reason for ICU to be different. The various internal macros
providing custom boolean constants can all be deleted and code as well
as documentation can be updated to use lowercase true/false everywhere.
Remove the functions UVector::addElementX() and UVector::ensureCapacityX() that
were temporarily added to aid in the cleaning up of UVector's out-of-memory
error handling.
- Add updated versions of UVector::addElement() and ensureCapacity() that respect
incoming errors.
Follow on to c26aebe, which renamed the original versions.
- Add UVector::adoptElement() as a replacement for addElement() when the vector
has a deleter function set, meaning that it adopts ownership of its elements.
The intent is to make the behavior clearer at the call sites when looking
at unfamiliar code.
- Make all functions with an incoming failure, as indicated by a UErrorCode parameter,
leave the vector unchanged.
- Change all functions that store object pointers into the vector such that,
when the store cannot be completed for any reason _and_ the vector has a deleter function,
then the incoming object is deleted.
This change can simplify the error handling code around calls to the affected functions
(addElement() and insertElementAt(), in particular)
- Add index bounds checking on functions where it was possible - that is, on functions
with both U_ErrorCode and index parameters.
- Changed to more modern C++ idioms in some parts of the UVector implementation.
- Review & update as required all uses of the UVector functions
setElementAt(), insertElementAt(), setSize(), sortedInsert()
these being the functions with changed behavior on error conditions
(aside from addElement()).
This PR will be followed by more, switching call sites in various ICU services
from UVector::addElementX() (old behavior on errors)
to UVector::addElement() (new behavior on errors)
Now when all equality operators return standard bool (commit 633438f),
it no longer makes any sense to use the ICU4C constants TRUE & FALSE
or local variables of type UBool for their return value.
This is the first step towards improving the error handling and out-of-memory
behavior of UVector::addElement(). A followup PR will add back a new addElement()
with corrected error handling, then additional followups will switch call sites
from the original (renamed) function to the new addElement().
This commit includes no logic or behavior changes; it only renames the existing functions.
Use the int32_t functions when you are only using integers.
Also arrays of scalars need to be allocated with malloc (Needed by Lotus j1733).
