package sun.text.normalizer;

Standalone utility class providing UTF16 character conversions and indexing conversions.

Code that uses strings alone rarely need modification. By design, UTF-16 does not allow overlap, so searching for strings is a safe operation. Similarly, concatenation is always safe. Substringing is safe if the start and end are both on UTF-32 boundaries. In normal code, the values for start and end are on those boundaries, since they arose from operations like searching. If not, the nearest UTF-32 boundaries can be determined using bounds(). Examples:

The following examples illustrate use of some of these methods.


// iteration forwards: Original
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); ++i) {
    char ch = s.charAt(i);
    doSomethingWith(ch);
 }
// iteration forwards: Changes for UTF-32
int ch;
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i += UTF16.getCharCount(ch)) {
    ch = UTF16.charAt(s, i);
    doSomethingWith(ch);
 }
// iteration backwards: Original
for (int i = s.length() - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
    char ch = s.charAt(i);
    doSomethingWith(ch);
 }
// iteration backwards: Changes for UTF-32
int ch;
for (int i = s.length() - 1; i > 0; i -= UTF16.getCharCount(ch)) {
    ch = UTF16.charAt(s, i);
    doSomethingWith(ch);
 }
Notes:
  • Naming: For clarity, High and Low surrogates are called Lead and Trail in the API, which gives a better sense of their ordering in a string. offset16 and offset32 are used to distinguish offsets to UTF-16 boundaries vs offsets to UTF-32 boundaries. int char32 is used to contain UTF-32 characters, as opposed to char16, which is a UTF-16 code unit.
  • Roundtripping Offsets: You can always roundtrip from a UTF-32 offset to a UTF-16 offset and back. Because of the difference in structure, you can roundtrip from a UTF-16 offset to a UTF-32 offset and back if and only if bounds(string, offset16) != TRAIL.
  • Exceptions: The error checking will throw an exception if indices are out of bounds. Other than that, all methods will behave reasonably, even if unmatched surrogates or out-of-bounds UTF-32 values are present. UCharacter.isLegal() can be used to check for validity if desired.
  • Unmatched Surrogates: If the string contains unmatched surrogates, then these are counted as one UTF-32 value. This matches their iteration behavior, which is vital. It also matches common display practice as missing glyphs (see the Unicode Standard Section 5.4, 5.5).
  • Optimization: The method implementations may need optimization if the compiler doesn't fold static final methods. Since surrogate pairs will form an exceeding small percentage of all the text in the world, the singleton case should always be optimized for.
