  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
Java.Lang
Assembly:
Mono.Android.dll

Overloads

ToChars(Int32, Char[], Int32)

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation.
ToChars(Int32)

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation stored in a char array.

ToChars(Int32, Char[], Int32)

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation.

[Android.Runtime.Register("toChars", "(I[CI)I", "")]
public static int ToChars (int codePoint, char[]? dst, int dstIndex);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("toChars", "(I[CI)I", "")>]
static member ToChars : int * char[] * int -> int

Parameters

codePoint
Int32

the character (Unicode code point) to be converted.

dst
Char[]

an array of char in which the codePoint's UTF-16 value is stored.

dstIndex
Int32

the start index into the dst array where the converted value is stored.

Returns

Int32

1 if the code point is a BMP code point, 2 if the code point is a supplementary code point.

Attributes
RegisterAttribute

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException

if codePoint is not a valid code point.

NullPointerException

if dst is null.

IndexOutOfBoundsException

if dstIndex is negative, greater than or equal to dst.length or equals dst.length - 1 when codePoint is a IsSupplementaryCodePoint(Int32).

Remarks

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation. If the specified code point is a BMP (Basic Multilingual Plane or Plane 0) value, the same value is stored in dst[dstIndex], and 1 is returned. If the specified code point is a supplementary character, its surrogate values are stored in dst[dstIndex] (high-surrogate) and dst[dstIndex+1] (low-surrogate), and 2 is returned.

Applies to

ToChars(Int32)

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation stored in a char array.

[Android.Runtime.Register("toChars", "(I)[C", "")]
public static char[]? ToChars (int codePoint);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("toChars", "(I)[C", "")>]
static member ToChars : int -> char[]

Parameters

codePoint
Int32

a Unicode code point

Returns

Char[]

a char array having codePoint's UTF-16 representation.

Attributes
RegisterAttribute

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException

if codePoint is not a valid code point.

Remarks

Converts the specified character (Unicode code point) to its UTF-16 representation stored in a char array. If the specified code point is a BMP (Basic Multilingual Plane or Plane 0) value, the resulting char array has the same value as codePoint. If the specified code point is a supplementary code point, the resulting char array has the corresponding surrogate pair.
