  • Method Details

    • getCharacterKind

      ExecutionCharacter.CharacterKind getCharacterKind()

    • getCodePoint

      int getCodePoint()
      Returns the Unicode "code point" for the character represented by this literal node. Unicode assigns an integer value to each abstract character in the range 0 to 10ffff (hex). That integer is called a "code point". Code points 0 through FF agree with ASCII.

    • getCharacters

      char[] getCharacters()
      Returns the Java char representation of this unicode character. Java uses 2 bytes to represent a char. Hence a single Java char cannot represent every Unicode code point, but it can represent those in the "Basic Multilingual Plan" ("BMP"), i.e., code points 0000-FFFF. If this unicode character falls in the BMP range, then this array has length 1 and its sole element is the Java character representing the unicode character. Otherwise, this array has length 2, and the two Java characters together represent the Unicode character, in a way specified by the Java language; see the API documentation for class Character.

    • rawString

      String rawString()
      A string representation of the character without any surrounding quotation marks. Typically one character, but for special characters (like newlines, tabs, etc.) this string will be an escape sequence like "\n" (without the quotes).
      Returns:
      string representation, stripped down
