Constructor Detail

### CharacterMap

    public CharacterMap(IntHashMap<String> map)

  Create a CharacterMap from a raw map of integers to strings

  Parameters:
    `map` - the mapping of integer Unicode character codes to strings

### CharacterMap

    public CharacterMap(Iterable<CharacterMap> list)

  Create a CharacterMap that combines a set of existing character maps.

  Parameters:
    `list` - the list of existing character maps. If the same character is mapped by more than one map in the list, the last mapping takes precedence

Method Detail

### map

    public CharSequence map(CharSequence in,
                            boolean insertNulls)

  Expand all the characters in a string using this character mapping

  Parameters:
    `in` - the input string to be mapped
    `insertNulls` - true if null (0) characters are to be inserted before and after replacement characters. This is done to signal that output escaping of these characters is disabled. The flag is set to true when writing XML or HTML, but to false when writing TEXT.
