Method Detail

combinePair

public static int combinePair(char high,
                              char low)

Return the non-BMP character corresponding to a given surrogate pair surrogates.

Parameters:

high - The high surrogate.

low - The low surrogate.

Returns:

the Unicode codepoint represented by the surrogate pair

highSurrogate

public static char highSurrogate(int ch)

Return the high surrogate of a non-BMP character

Parameters:

ch - The Unicode codepoint of the non-BMP character to be divided.

Returns:

the first character in the surrogate pair

lowSurrogate

public static char lowSurrogate(int ch)

Return the low surrogate of a non-BMP character

Parameters:

ch - The Unicode codepoint of the non-BMP character to be divided.

Returns:

the second character in the surrogate pair

isSurrogate

public static boolean isSurrogate(int c)

Test whether a given character is a surrogate (high or low)

Parameters:

c - the character to test

Returns:

true if the character is the high or low half of a surrogate pair

isHighSurrogate

public static boolean isHighSurrogate(int ch)

Test whether the given character is a high surrogate

Parameters:

ch - The character to test.

Returns:

true if the character is the first character in a surrogate pair

isLowSurrogate

public static boolean isLowSurrogate(int ch)

Test whether the given character is a low surrogate

Parameters:

ch - The character to test.

Returns:

true if the character is the second character in a surrogate pair
