  • Method Details

    • of

      public static UnicodeString of(String base)
    • wrap

      public static UnicodeString wrap(String base)
    • tidy

      public static UnicodeString tidy(String base)
    • tidy

      public UnicodeString tidy()
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Ensure that the implementation is capable of counting codepoints in the string. This is normally a null operation, but it may cause internal reorganisation.
      Overrides:
      tidy in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      this UnicodeString, or another that represents the same sequence of characters.
    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty()
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Ask whether the string is empty
      Overrides:
      isEmpty in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      true if the length of the string is zero
    • estimatedLength

      public long estimatedLength()
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Get the estimated length of the string, suitable for space allocation.
      Overrides:
      estimatedLength in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      for a UnicodeString, the actual length of the string in codepoints
    • length

      public long length()
      Get the length of the string
      Specified by:
      length in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      the number of code points in the string
    • getWidth

      public int getWidth()
      Get the number of bits needed to hold all the characters in this string
      Specified by:
      getWidth in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      7 for ascii characters, 8 for latin-1, 16 for BMP, 24 for general Unicode.
    • indexOf

      public long indexOf(int codePoint, long from)
      Get the position of the first occurrence of the specified codepoint, starting the search at a given position in the string
      Specified by:
      indexOf in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      codePoint - the sought codepoint
      from - the position from which the search should start (0-based). There is no restriction on the value. Negative values are treated as zero; values greater than or equal to length() return -1.
      Returns:
      the position (zero-based) of the first occurrence found, or -1 if not found
    • indexWhere

      public long indexWhere(IntPredicate predicate, long from)
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Get the position of the first occurrence of a codepoint that matches a supplied predicate, starting the search at a given position in the string
      Specified by:
      indexWhere in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      predicate - condition that the codepoint must satisfy
      from - the position from which the search should start (0-based). A negative value is treated as zero. A position beyond the end of the string results in a return value of -1 (meaning not found).
      Returns:
      the position (0-based) of the first codepoint to match the predicate, or -1 if not found
    • codePointAt

      public int codePointAt(long index)
      Get the code point at a given position in the string
      Specified by:
      codePointAt in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      index - the given position (0-based)
      Returns:
      the code point at the given position
      Throws:
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index is out of range
    • substring

      public UnicodeString substring(long start, long end)
      Get a substring of this codepoint sequence, with a given start and end position
      Specified by:
      substring in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      start - the start position (0-based): that is, the position of the first code point to be included
      end - the end position (0-based): specifically, the position of the first code point not to be included
      Returns:
      the requested substring
      Throws:
      UnsupportedOperationException - if the UnicodeString has not been prepared for codePoint access
    • codePoints

      public IntIterator codePoints()
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Get an iterator over the code points present in the string.
      Specified by:
      codePoints in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      an iterator that delivers the individual code points
    • concat

      public UnicodeString concat(UnicodeString other)
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Concatenate with another string, returning a new string
      Overrides:
      concat in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      other - the string to be appended
      Returns:
      the result of concatenating this string followed by the other
    • compareTo

      public int compareTo(UnicodeString other)
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Compare this string to another using codepoint comparison
      Specified by:
      compareTo in interface Comparable<UnicodeString>
      Overrides:
      compareTo in class UnicodeString
      Parameters:
      other - the other string
      Returns:
      -1 if this string comes first, 0 if they are equal, +1 if the other string comes first
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Overrides:
      equals in class UnicodeString
    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Description copied from class: UnicodeString
      Compute a hashCode. All implementations of UnicodeString use compatible hash codes and the hashing algorithm is therefore identical to that for java.lang.String. This means that for strings containing Astral characters, the hash code needs to be computed by decomposing an Astral character into a surrogate pair.
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class UnicodeString
      Returns:
      the hash code
    • economize

      public UnicodeString economize()

      economize in class UnicodeString
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
