In java 21 we get new API for emojis like below
isEmoji(int codePoint)
isEmojiComponent(int codePoint)
isEmojiModifier(int codePoint)
isEmojiModifierBase(int codePoint)
isEmojiPresentation(int codePoint)
isExtendedPictographic(int codePoint)
here is a working example
public static void main(String[] args) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F600); // Grinning face
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F601); // Grinning face with big eyes
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F602); // Grinning face with tears
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F923); // Rolling on the floor laughing
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F970); // Smiling face with hearts
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F60D); // Smiling face with heart-eyes
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F929); // Star-struck
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F618); // Face blowing a kiss
sb.appendCodePoint(0x1F617); // Kissing face
sb.appendCodePoint(0x263A); // Smiling face
System.out.println(sb);
var codePoint = Character.codePointAt("😃", 0);
var isEmoji = Character.isEmoji(codePoint);
System.out.println("😃 is an emoji: " + isEmoji);
int[] surrogates = { 0xD83D, 0xDC7D };
String alienEmojiString = new String(surrogates, 0, surrogates.length);
System.out.println(alienEmojiString);
}
looks nicer compared to intellij
