Public Methods

public static final Character.UnicodeBlock forName (String blockName)

Retrieves the constant that corresponds to the specified block name. The block names are defined by the Unicode 4.0.1 specification in the Blocks-4.0.1.txt file.

Block names may be one of the following:

  • Canonical block name, as defined by the Unicode specification; case-insensitive.
  • Canonical block name without any spaces, as defined by the Unicode specification; case-insensitive.
  • UnicodeBlock constant identifier. This is determined by uppercasing the canonical name and replacing all spaces and hyphens with underscores.

Parameters
blockName the name of the block to retrieve.
Returns
  • the UnicodeBlock constant corresponding to blockName.
Throws
IllegalArgumentException if blockName is not a valid block name.

public static Character.UnicodeBlock of (int codePoint)

Gets the constant for the Unicode block that contains the specified Unicode code point.

Parameters
codePoint the Unicode code point for which to get the UnicodeBlock constant.
Returns
  • the UnicodeBlock constant for the block that contains codePoint, or null if codePoint does not belong to any defined block.
Throws
IllegalArgumentException if codePoint is not a valid Unicode code point.

public static Character.UnicodeBlock of (char c)

Gets the constant for the Unicode block that contains the specified character.

Parameters
c the character for which to get the UnicodeBlock constant.
Returns
  • the UnicodeBlock constant for the block that contains c, or null if c does not belong to any defined block.
