Function `std.utf.isValidCodepoint`

Checks if a single character forms a valid code point.


						
				bool isValidCodepoint(Char)
				(
				

				  Char c
				

				)
				

				if (isSomeChar!Char);

When standing alone, some characters are invalid code points. For example the wchar 0xD800 is a so called high surrogate, which can only be interpreted together with a low surrogate following it. As a standalone character it is considered invalid.

See Unicode Standard, D90, D91 and D92 for more details.

Parameters

Name	Description
c	character to test
Char	character type of `c`

Returns

true, if c forms a valid code point.

Example

assert( isValidCodepoint(cast(char) 0x40));
assert(!isValidCodepoint(cast(char) 0x80));
assert( isValidCodepoint(cast(wchar) 0x1234));
assert(!isValidCodepoint(cast(wchar) 0xD800));
assert( isValidCodepoint(cast(dchar) 0x0010FFFF));
assert(!isValidCodepoint(cast(dchar) 0x12345678));
