/************** Iterator class **************/
/**
* @class Iterator convert.h c++-gtk-utils/convert.h
* @brief A class which will iterate through a std::string object by
* reference to unicode characters rather than by bytes.
* @sa Cgu::Utf8::ReverseIterator
*
* The Cgu::Utf8::Iterator class does the same as
* std::string::const_iterator, except that when iterating through a
* std::string object using the ++ and - - postfix and prefix
* operators, it iterates by increments of whole unicode code points
* rather than by reference to bytes. In addition, the dereferencing
* operator returns the whole unicode code point (a UCS-4 gunichar
* type) rather than a char type.
*
* Where, as in practically all unix-like systems, sizeof(wchar_t) ==
* 4, then the gunichar return value of the dereferencing operator can
* be converted by a simple static_cast to the wchar_t type. So far
* as displaying individual code points is concerned however, it
* should be noted that because unicode allows combining characters, a
* unicode code point may not contain the whole representation of a
* character as displayed. This effect can be dealt with for all
* characters capable of representation by Level 1 unicode (ie by
* precomposed characters) using g_utf8_normalize() before iterating.
* There will still however be some non-European scripts, in
* particular some Chinese/Japanese/Korean ideograms, where
* description of the ideogram requires more than one code point to be
* finally resolved. For these, printing individual code points
* sequentially one by one directly to a display (say with std::wcout)
* may or not may not have the desired result, depending on how the
* display device (eg console) deals with that case.
*
* A Cgu::Utf8::Iterator only allows reading from and not writing to
* the std::string object being iterated through. This is because in
* UTF-8 the representation of any one unicode code point will require
* between 1 and 6 bytes: accordingly modifying a UTF-8 string may
* change its length (in bytes) even though the number of unicode
* characters stays the same. For the same reason, this iterator is a
* bidirectional iterator but not a random access iterator.
*
* The std::string object concerned should contain valid UTF-8 text.
* If necessary, this should be checked with Cgu::Utf8::validate()
* first. In addition, before use, the Cgu::Utf8::Iterator object
* must be initialized by a std::string::const_iterator or
* std::string::iterator object pointing to the first byte of a valid
* UTF-8 character in the string (or by another Cgu::Utf8::Iterator
* object or by a Cgu::Utf8::ReverseIterator object), and iteration
* will begin at the point of initialization: therefore, assuming the
* string contains valid UTF-8 text, passing std::string::begin() to a
* Cgu::Utf8::Iterator object will always be safe. Initialization by
* std::string::end() is also valid if the first iteration is
* backwards with the \-- operator. This initialization can be done
* either in the constructor or by assignment. Comparison operators
* ==, !=, <, <=, > and >= are provided enabling the position of
* Cgu::Utf8::Iterator objects to be compared with each other or with
* std::string::const_iterator and std::string::iterator objects.
*
* This is an example:
* @code
* using namespace Cgu;
*
* std::wstring wide_str(L"ßøǿón");
* std::string narrow_str(Utf8::uniwide_to_utf8(wide_str));
*
* Utf8::Iterator iter;
* for (iter = narrow_str.begin();
* iter != narrow_str.end();
* ++iter)
* std::wcout << static_cast<wchar_t>(*iter) << std::endl;
* @endcode
*
* This class assumes in using g_utf8_next_char(), g_utf8_prev_char()
* and g_utf8_get_char() that the std::string object keeps its
* internal string in contiguous storage. This is required by the
* C++11/14 standard, but not formally by C++98/C++03. However, known
* implementations of std::string in fact store the string
* contiguously.
