Robert Muir commented on HARMONY-6650:
--------------------------------------
Ok, that makes good sense, I'll work up a patch.
> Character.getType(int) inconsistent with Character.getType(char): uses different version
of unicode
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HARMONY-6650
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-6650
> Project: Harmony
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Classlib
> Reporter: Robert Muir

> While looking at Character, i noticed the code looked very different for 'int' than 'char'
here.
> in particular the int method defers to ICU, but the char method binsearches its own table.
> and the comment for that table is:
> // Unicode 3.0.1 (same as Unicode 3.0.0)
> private static final char[] typeValues ....
> But Unicode 3 is the wrong version for java5/6
> So, i tried a character whose type changed from 3.0 to 4.0, just to see.
> For example, compare these two results:
> Character.getType('\u17B5') = 8 (combining mark)
> Character.getType((int) '\u17B5') = 16 (format)
