Java String: offsetByCodePoint() Method

public int offsetByCodePoints(int index, int codePointOffset)

The offsetByCodePoint() method returns the index within this String that is offset from the given index by codePointOffset code points. Unpaired surrogates within the text range given by index and codePointOffset count as one code point each.

Java Platform: Java SE 8

Syntax:

offsetByCodePoints(int index, int codePointOffset)

Parameter:

Name Description Type
index the index to be offset int
codePointOffset the offset in code points int

Return Value: the index within this String.

Return Value Type: int

Throws:
IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index is negative or larger then the length of this String, or if codePointOffset is positive and the substring starting with index has fewer than codePointOffset code points, or if codePointOffset is negative and the substring before index has fewer than the absolute value of codePointOffset code points.

Example: Java String offsetByCodePoints(int index, int codePointOffset) Method

The following example shows the usage of java String() method.

public class StringBufferOffsetByCodePoints {

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		// initialize the StringBuffer object
		StringBuffer strbuff = new StringBuffer("w3resource.com");
		
		System.out.println("\nContents of buffer:" + strbuff);

		// get the offsetByCodePoints on index of 3 and an offset of 9
		int index = 3;
		int codePointOffset = 9;

		System.out.println("Result :"
				+ strbuff.offsetByCodePoints(index, codePointOffset));
        System.out.println();
	}
}

Output:

Contents of buffer:w3resource.com                      
Result :12

Example of Throws: string_offsetbycodepoints Method

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index is negative or larger then the length of this String, or if codePointOffset is positive and the substring starting with index has fewer than codePointOffset code points, or if codePointOffset is negative and the substring before index has fewer than the absolute value of codePointOffset code points.

Let

int codePointOffset = -9;

In the above example

Output:

Contents of buffer:w3resource.com
