public final class UTF16
extends java.lang.Object
```
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 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.

    Convenience method corresponding to String.valueOf(codepoint at offset16). Returns a one or two char string containing the UTF-32 value in UTF16 format. If offset16 indexes a surrogate character, the whole supplementary codepoint will be returned. If a validity check is required, use isLegal() on the codepoint at offset16 before calling. The result returned will be a newly created String obtained by calling source.substring(..) with the appropriate indexes.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - the input string.
    
    offset16 - the UTF16 index to the codepoint in source

```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the first occurrence of the argument codepoint. I.e., the smallest index i such that UTF16.charAt(source, i) == char32 is true.
    If no such character occurs in this string, then -1 is returned.
    
    Examples:
    UTF16.indexOf("abc", 'a') returns 0
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", 0x10000) returns 3
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", 0xd800) returns -1
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    char32 - codepoint to search for
    
    Returns:

  - indexOf
```
public static int indexOf(java.lang.String source,
                          java.lang.String str)
```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the first occurrence of the argument string str. This method is implemented based on codepoints, hence a "lead surrogate character + trail surrogate character" is treated as one entity.e Hence if the str starts with trail surrogate character at index 0, a source with a leading a surrogate character before str found at in source will not have a valid match. Vice versa for lead surrogates that ends str. See example below.
    If no such string str occurs in this source, then -1 is returned.
    
    Examples:
    UTF16.indexOf("abc", "ab") returns 0
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", "𐀀") returns 3
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", "?") returns -1
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    str - UTF16 format Unicode string to search for
    
    Returns:
    
    the index of the first occurrence of the codepoint in the argument Unicode string, or -1 if the codepoint does not occur.

                          int fromIndex)
```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the first occurrence of the argument codepoint. I.e., the smallest index i such that:
    (UTF16.charAt(source, i) == char32 && i >= fromIndex) is true.
    If no such character occurs in this string, then -1 is returned.
    
    Examples:
    UTF16.indexOf("abc", 'a', 1) returns -1
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", 0x10000, 1) returns 3
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", 0xd800, 1) returns -1
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:

    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the first occurrence of the argument string str. This method is implemented based on codepoints, hence a "lead surrogate character + trail surrogate character" is treated as one entity.e Hence if the str starts with trail surrogate character at index 0, a source with a leading a surrogate character before str found at in source will not have a valid match. Vice versa for lead surrogates that ends str. See example below.
    If no such string str occurs in this source, then -1 is returned.
    
    Examples:
    UTF16.indexOf("abc", "ab", 0) returns 0
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", "𐀀", 0) returns 3
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", "𐀀", 2) returns 3
    UTF16.indexOf("abc𐀀", "?", 0) returns -1
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    str - UTF16 format Unicode string to search for
    
    fromIndex - the index to start the search from.
    
    Returns:
    
    the index of the first occurrence of the codepoint in the argument Unicode string, or -1 if the codepoint does not occur.
  - lastIndexOf
```
public static int lastIndexOf(java.lang.String source,
                              int char32)
```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the last occurrence of the argument codepoint. I.e., the index returned is the largest value i such that: UTF16.charAt(source, i) == char32 is true.
    Examples:
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc", 'a') returns 0
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", 0x10000) returns 3
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", 0xd800) returns -1
    
    source is searched backwards starting at the last character.
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    char32 - codepoint to search for
    
    Returns:
    
    the index of the last occurrence of the codepoint in source, or -1 if the codepoint does not occur.
  - lastIndexOf
```

```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the last occurrence of the argument string str. This method is implemented based on codepoints, hence a "lead surrogate character + trail surrogate character" is treated as one entity.e Hence if the str starts with trail surrogate character at index 0, a source with a leading a surrogate character before str found at in source will not have a valid match. Vice versa for lead surrogates that ends str. See example below.
    Examples:
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc", "a") returns 0
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", "𐀀") returns 3
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", "?") returns -1
    
    source is searched backwards starting at the last character.
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    str - UTF16 format Unicode string to search for
    
    Returns:
    
    the index of the last occurrence of the codepoint in source, or -1 if the codepoint does not occur.
  - lastIndexOf
```
public static int lastIndexOf(java.lang.String source,
                              int char32,
                              int fromIndex)
```
    Returns the index within the argument UTF16 format Unicode string of the last occurrence of the argument codepoint, where the result is less than or equals to fromIndex.
    
    This method is implemented based on codepoints, hence a single surrogate character will not match a supplementary character.
    
    source is searched backwards starting at the last character starting at the specified index.
    
    Examples:
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc", 'c', 2) returns 2
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc", 'c', 1) returns -1
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", 0x10000, 5) returns 3
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", 0x10000, 3) returns 3
    UTF16.lastIndexOf("abc𐀀", 0xd800) returns -1
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string that will be searched
    
    char32 - codepoint to search for
    
    fromIndex - the index to start the search from. There is no restriction on the value of fromIndex. If it is greater than or equal to the length of this string, it has the same effect as if it were equal to one less than the length of this string: this entire string may be searched. If it is negative, it has the same effect as if it were -1: -1 is returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the index of the last occurrence of the codepoint in source, or -1 if the codepoint does not occur.
  - lastIndexOf

  - replace
```
public static java.lang.String replace(java.lang.String source,
                                       int oldChar32,
                                       int newChar32)
```
    Returns a new UTF16 format Unicode string resulting from replacing all occurrences of oldChar32 in source with newChar32. If the character oldChar32 does not occur in the UTF16 format Unicode string source, then source will be returned. Otherwise, a new String object is created that represents a codepoint sequence identical to the codepoint sequence represented by source, except that every occurrence of oldChar32 is replaced by an occurrence of newChar32.
    Examples:
    UTF16.replace("mesquite in your cellar", 'e', 'o');
    returns "mosquito in your collar"
    UTF16.replace("JonL", 'q', 'x');
    returns "JonL" (no change)
    UTF16.replace("Supplementary character 𐀀", 0x10000, '!');
    returns "Supplementary character !"
    UTF16.replace("Supplementary character 𐀀", 0xd800, '!');
    returns "Supplementary character 𐀀"
    
    Note this method is provided as support to jdk 1.3, which does not support supplementary characters to its fullest.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string which the codepoint replacements will be based on.
    
    oldChar32 - non-zero old codepoint to be replaced.
    
    newChar32 - the new codepoint to replace oldChar32
    
    Returns:
    
    new String derived from source by replacing every occurrence of oldChar32 with newChar32, unless when no oldChar32 is found in source then source will be returned.
  - replace
```
public static java.lang.String replace(java.lang.String source,
                                       java.lang.String oldStr,

```
    Returns a new UTF16 format Unicode string resulting from replacing all occurrences of oldStr in source with newStr. If the string oldStr does not occur in the UTF16 format Unicode string source, then source will be returned. Otherwise, a new String object is created that represents a codepoint sequence identical to the codepoint sequence represented by source, except that every occurrence of oldStr is replaced by an occurrence of newStr.
    Examples:
    UTF16.replace("mesquite in your cellar", "e", "o");
    returns "mosquito in your collar"
    UTF16.replace("mesquite in your cellar", "mesquite", "cat");
    returns "cat in your cellar"

    Parameters:
    
    source - UTF16 format Unicode string which the replacements will be based on.
    
    oldStr - non-zero-length string to be replaced.
    
    newStr - the new string to replace oldStr
    
    Returns:
    
    new String derived from source by replacing every occurrence of oldStr with newStr. When no oldStr is found in source, then source will be returned.
  - reverse
```
public static java.lang.StringBuffer reverse(java.lang.StringBuffer source)
```
    Reverses a UTF16 format Unicode string and replaces source's content with it. This method will reverse surrogate characters correctly, instead of blindly reversing every character.
    Examples:
    UTF16.reverse(new StringBuffer( "Supplementary characters 𐀀𐐁"))
    returns "𐐁𐀀 sretcarahc yratnemelppuS".
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - the source StringBuffer that contains UTF16 format Unicode string to be reversed
    
    Returns:
    
    a modified source with reversed UTF16 format Unicode string.
  - hasMoreCodePointsThan
```
public static boolean hasMoreCodePointsThan(java.lang.String source,
                                            int number)
```
    Check if the string contains more Unicode code points than a certain number. This is more efficient than counting all code points in the entire string and comparing that number with a threshold. This function may not need to scan the string at all if the length is within a certain range, and never needs to count more than 'number + 1' code points. Logically equivalent to (countCodePoint(s) > number). A Unicode code point may occupy either one or two code units.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - The input string.
    
    number - The number of code points in the string is compared against the 'number' parameter.
    
    Returns:
    
    boolean value for whether the string contains more Unicode code points than 'number'.
  - hasMoreCodePointsThan
```
public static boolean hasMoreCodePointsThan(char[] source,

                                            int number)
```
    Check if the sub-range of char array, from argument start to limit, contains more Unicode code points than a certain number. This is more efficient than counting all code points in the entire char array range and comparing that number with a threshold. This function may not need to scan the char array at all if start and limit is within a certain range, and never needs to count more than 'number + 1' code points. Logically equivalent to (countCodePoint(source, start, limit) > number). A Unicode code point may occupy either one or two code units.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - array of UTF-16 chars
    
    start - offset to substring in the source array for analyzing
    
    limit - offset to substring in the source array for analyzing
    
    number - The number of code points in the string is compared against the 'number' parameter.
    
    Returns:
    
    boolean value for whether the string contains more Unicode code points than 'number'.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - thrown when limit < start
  - hasMoreCodePointsThan
```
public static boolean hasMoreCodePointsThan(java.lang.StringBuffer source,
                                            int number)
```
    Check if the string buffer contains more Unicode code points than a certain number. This is more efficient than counting all code points in the entire string buffer and comparing that number with a threshold. This function may not need to scan the string buffer at all if the length is within a certain range, and never needs to count more than 'number + 1' code points. Logically equivalent to (countCodePoint(s) > number). A Unicode code point may occupy either one or two code units.
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - The input string buffer.
    
    number - The number of code points in the string buffer is compared against the 'number' parameter.
    
    Returns:
    
    boolean value for whether the string buffer contains more Unicode code points than 'number'.
  - newString
```
public static java.lang.String newString(int[] codePoints,
                                         int offset,
                                         int count)
```
    Cover JDK 1.5 API. Create a String from an array of codePoints.
    
    Parameters:
    
    codePoints - the code array
    
    offset - the start of the text in the code point array
    
    count - the number of code points
    
    Returns:
    
    a String representing the code points between offset and count
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if an invalid code point is encountered
    
    java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the offset or count are out of bounds.
