      Returns a builder for creating simple, fast escapers.
      static java.lang.String computeReplacement​(CharEscaper escaper, char c)
      Returns a string that would replace the given character in the specified escaper, or null if no replacement should be made.
      static java.lang.String computeReplacement​(UnicodeEscaper escaper, int cp)
      Returns a string that would replace the given character in the specified escaper, or null if no replacement should be made.
      static Escaper nullEscaper()
      Returns an Escaper that does no escaping, passing all character data through unchanged.

        Returns an Escaper that does no escaping, passing all character data through unchanged.

      • builder

        public static Escapers.Builder builder()
        Returns a builder for creating simple, fast escapers. A builder instance can be reused and each escaper that is created will be a snapshot of the current builder state. Builders are not thread safe.

        The initial state of the builder is such that:

        • There are no replacement mappings
        • safeMin == Character.MIN_VALUE
        • safeMax == Character.MAX_VALUE
        • unsafeReplacement == null

        For performance reasons escapers created by this builder are not Unicode aware and will not validate the well-formedness of their input.

      • computeReplacement

        public static java.lang.String computeReplacement​(CharEscaper escaper,
                                                  char c)
        Returns a string that would replace the given character in the specified escaper, or null if no replacement should be made. This method is intended for use in tests through the EscaperAsserts class; production users of CharEscaper should limit themselves to its public interface.
        Parameters:
        c - the character to escape if necessary
        Returns:
        the replacement string, or null if no escaping was needed

      • computeReplacement

        public static java.lang.String computeReplacement​(UnicodeEscaper escaper,
                                                  int cp)
        Returns a string that would replace the given character in the specified escaper, or null if no replacement should be made. This method is intended for use in tests through the EscaperAsserts class; production users of UnicodeEscaper should limit themselves to its public interface.
        Parameters:
        cp - the Unicode code point to escape if necessary
        Returns:
        the replacement string, or null if no escaping was needed
