Enclosing class:
Character

public static enum Character.UnicodeScript
extends Enum<Character.UnicodeScript>

A family of character subsets representing the character scripts defined in the Unicode Standard Annex #24: Script Names. Every Unicode character is assigned to a single Unicode script, either a specific script, such as Latin, or one of the following three special values, Inherited, Common or Unknown.

Methods

values

public static Character.UnicodeScript[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 

for (Character.UnicodeScript c : Character.UnicodeScript.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Character.UnicodeScript valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
NullPointerException - if the argument is null

of

public static Character.UnicodeScript of(int codePoint)

Returns the enum constant representing the Unicode script of which the given character (Unicode code point) is assigned to.

Parameters:
codePoint - the character (Unicode code point) in question.
Returns:
The UnicodeScript constant representing the Unicode script of which this character is assigned to.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the specified codePoint is an invalid Unicode code point.
See Also:
Character.isValidCodePoint(int)

forName

public static final Character.UnicodeScript forName(String scriptName)

Returns the UnicodeScript constant with the given Unicode script name or the script name alias. Script names and their aliases are determined by The Unicode Standard. The files Scripts<version>.txt and PropertyValueAliases<version>.txt define script names and the script name aliases for a particular version of the standard. The Character class specifies the version of the standard that it supports.

Character case is ignored for all of the valid script names. The en_US locale's case mapping rules are used to provide case-insensitive string comparisons for script name validation.

Parameters:
scriptName - A UnicodeScript name.
Returns:
The UnicodeScript constant identified by scriptName
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if scriptName is an invalid name
NullPointerException - if scriptName is null
