RE: UCS-2 and UTF-16

Yes it is. I use it in reference to Java because Java's surrogate/supplemental character support is quite limited. It is more accurate to describe it as UCS-2 support. This isn't to say that valid UTF-16 sequences are mangled in any way. Just that Java doesn't know what they are, really. In this

Hi Phillippe, UTF-16 is (kind of) UCS-2... What's your system code page? System.out.println uses your system code page to display characters--it does an implicit conversion. To check your code, try this: char[] c = myUCSString.toCharArray(); for (int x=0; xhttp://www.inter-locale.com/IUC19.pdf

For some reason I don't the see the original email, so I'm going to guess based on Marco's response below. The code below is nearly correct, assuming that the starting point was that each UTF-8 byte was converted into a single java.lang.Character object in the String. That is, if the String co
