Converts the specified Unicode code point into a UTF-16 encoded string.

public:
 static System::String ^ ConvertFromUtf32(int utf32);

public static string ConvertFromUtf32 (int utf32);

static member ConvertFromUtf32 : int -> string

Public Shared Function ConvertFromUtf32 (utf32 As Integer) As String

Parameters

utf32: Int32

A 21-bit Unicode code point.

Returns

String

A string consisting of one Char object or a surrogate pair of Char objects equivalent to the code point specified by the utf32 parameter.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

utf32 is not a valid 21-bit Unicode code point ranging from U+0 through U+10FFFF, excluding the surrogate pair range from U+D800 through U+DFFF.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the ConvertToUtf32 and ConvertFromUtf32 methods.

Remarks

Use this method to convert a 21-bit Unicode code point to a UTF-16 encoded string before testing the string with methods such as IsLowSurrogate(Char) and IsHighSurrogate(Char).

A valid code point outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) always yields a valid surrogate pair. However, a valid code point within the BMP might not yield a valid result according to the Unicode standard because no linguistic processing is used in the conversion. For that reason, use the System.Text.UTF32Encoding class to convert bulk UTF-32 data into bulk UTF-16 data.
