<hr><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The m17n library dynamically acquires various kinds of information in need from data in the <em> m17n database</em>. Application programs can also add/load their original data to/from the m17n database. The m17n database contains multiple heterogeneous data, and each data is identified by four tags; TAG0, TAG1, TAG2, TAG3. Each tag must be a symbol.<p>
TAG0 specifies the type of data stored in the database as below.<p>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is <a class="el" href="group__m17nChartable.html#ga1">Mchar_table</a>, the data is of the <em>chartable</em> <em>type</em> and provides information about each character. In this case, TAG1 specifies the type of the information and must be <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga4">Msymbol</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga1">Minteger</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga3">Mstring</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga3">Mtext</a>, or <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga2">Mplist</a>. TAG2 and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is <a class="el" href="group__m17nCharset.html#ga0">Mcharset</a>, the data is of the <em>charset</em> <em>type</em> and provides a decode/encode mapping table for a charset. In this case, TAG1 must be a symbol representing a charset. TAG2 and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is neither <a class="el" href="group__m17nChartable.html#ga1">Mchar_table</a> nor <a class="el" href="group__m17nCharset.html#ga0">Mcharset</a>, the data is of the <em>plist</em> <em>type</em>. See the documentation of the <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga5">mdatabase_load()</a> function for the details. In this case, TAG1, TAG2, and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
The notation &lt;TAG0, TAG1, TAG2, TAG3&gt; means a data with those tags.<p>
Application programs first calls the <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga2">mdatabase_find()</a> function to get a pointer to an object of the type <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga0">MDatabase</a>. That object holds information about the specified data. When it is successfully returned, the <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga5">mdatabase_load()</a> function loads the data. The implementation of the structure <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga0">MDatabase</a> is concealed from application programs. <hr><h2>Typedef Documentation</h2>

The <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga5">mdatabase_load()</a> function loads a data specified in <b>mdb</b> and returns the contents. The type of contents depends on the type of the data.<p>
If the data is of the <em>plist</em> type, this function returns a pointer to <em>plist</em>.<p>
If the database is of the <em>chartable</em> type, it returns a chartable. The default value of the chartable is set according to the second tag of the data as below:<p>
<ul>
<li>If the tag is <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga4">Msymbol</a>, the default value is <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga1">Mnil</a>. </li>
<li>If the tag is <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga1">Minteger</a>, the default value is -1. </li>
<li>Otherwise, the default value is <code>NULL</code>.</li>
</ul>
If the data is of the <em>charset</em> type, it returns a plist of length 2 (keys are both <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga2">Mt</a>). The value of the first element is an array of integers that maps code points to the corresponding character codes. The value of the second element is a chartable of integers that does the reverse mapping. The charset must be defined in advance.<p>
