Alexander Kj=C3=A4ll commented on LANG-480:
--------------------------------------

That is a bit sad.

How likely do you think that the JDK 5 version to be, will it happen within=
 this quarter?

I guess i could try to write a patch that is compatible with java 1.2, but =
that would require me to do my own parsing of the format that java stores c=
haracters in memory, so i would really like to avoid having that code in a =
library.

> Characters that are represented as a 2 characters internaly by java are i=
ncorrectly converted by the function. The following test displays the probl=
em quite nicely:
> import org.apache.commons.lang.*;
> public class J2 {
>     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
>         // this is the utf8 representation of the character:
>         // COUNTING ROD UNIT DIGIT THREE
>         // in unicode
>         // codepoint: U+1D362
>         byte[] data =3D new byte[] { (byte)0xF0, (byte)0x9D, (byte)0x8D, =
(byte)0xA2 };
>         //output is: &#55348;&#57186;
>         // should be: &#119650;
>         System.out.println("'" + StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml(new String(=
data, "UTF8")) + "'");
>     }
> }
> Should be very quick to fix, feel free to drop me an email if you want a =
patch.
