compose


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.30" ) ]
public bool compose (unichar b, out unichar ch)

Performs a single composition step of the Unicode canonical composition algorithm.

This function includes algorithmic Hangul Jamo composition, but it is not exactly the inverse of decompose. No composition can have either of a or b equal to zero. To be precise, this function composes if and only if there exists a Primary Composite P which is canonically equivalent to the sequence <a,b>. See the Unicode Standard for the definition of Primary Composite.

If a and b do not compose a new character, ch is set to zero.

See UAX#15 for details.

Parameters:

b

a Unicode character

ch

return location for the composed character

a

a Unicode character

Returns:

true if the characters could be composed
