We avoid wild card imports - even in tests.

Can you provide a pointer to any Apple docs on UnicodeScalarValue.
I can't find it .. I presume its a typedef of int so it can hold a composed
unicode code point outside the BMP ..

By already existing support I guess you refer to this :-

 592 CGGI_CreateImageForUnicode
 593     (CGGI_GlyphCanvas *canvas, const AWTStrike *strike,
 594      const CGGI_RenderingMode *mode, const UnicodeScalarValue uniChar)
...
 602     if (uniChar > 0xFFFF) {
 603         UTF16Char charRef[2];
 604         CTS_BreakupUnicodeIntoSurrogatePairs(uniChar, charRef);
...


This code was a bit more work to review than I was expecting because
of having to follow things around to see if numGlyphs != num16bitChars
was a problem or if the "non-negative" cases where we already have
a glyph were handled properly. And I'm still not entirely sure.
What reg. tests and other general testing has been done with this fix ?

Hello,

I'd like to propose a patch for https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8169202. I have a Contributor status via agreement signed by JetBrains, hope someone can sponsor the patch.
This repeats the proposal I've sent earlier to this mailing list,
adding now a reference to the created OpenJDK issue.

Currently, if requested font cannot render a Unicode character represented by a surrogate pair, no substitution is performed - Font.canDisplay will return false, and the character will be rendered as a 'missing' glyph. This behaviour doesn't violate any specification, but it looks like it can be easily improved, as underlying OS framework used under the hood does support surrogate pairs.

The proposed change consists of two parts. First part is adjusting the code in CoreTextSupport.m to handle surrogate pairs while performing char-to-glyph mapping, by encoding non-displayable surrogate pairs using negative values of the codepoint, similar to how non-displayable BMP characters are encoded. Second part is fixing the rendering code (in CGGlyphImages.m), where wrong type was used to pass character values around, so that code for surrogate pairs handling, already present there,
could work.

Webrev for the fix is available at
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~avu/JDK-8169202/webrev.02/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/%7Eavu/JDK-8169202/webrev.02/> (kindly posted by my colleague, having access to cr.openjdk.java.net <http://cr.openjdk.java.net>).
