public static int toChars(int codePoint, char[] dst, int dstIndex)
In the following code shows how to use Character.toChars(int codePoint, char[] dst, int dstIndex) method.
public class Main { // w ww . j av a 2 s. com public static void main(String[] args) { int cp = 0x0036; char dst[] = Character.toChars(cp); int res = Character.toChars(cp, dst, 0); if ( res == 1 ){ System.out.println( "It is a BMP code point" ); } else if ( res == 2 ){ System.out.println( "It is a is a supplementary code point" ); } } }
