Methods Summary¶

`__init__`
`GetAsChar`	Returns `True` if the character is representable as a single byte in the current locale encoding.
`GetValue`	Returns Unicode code point value of the character.
`IsAscii`	Returns `True` if the character is an `ASCII` character (i.e. if its value is less than 128).

Class API¶

class wx.UniChar(object)¶

Possible constructors:

UniChar(c)

UniChar(c)

This class represents a single Unicode character.

Methods¶

__init__(self, *args, **kw)¶

Overloaded Implementations:

__init__ (self, c)

Parameters:	c (long) –

__init__ (self, c)

Parameters:	c (long) –

GetAsChar(self, c)¶

Returns True if the character is representable as a single byte in the current locale encoding.

This function only returns True if the character can be converted in exactly one byte, e.g. it only returns True for 7 bit ASCII characters when the encoding used is UTF-8.

It is mostly useful to test if the character can be passed to functions taking a int and is used by wxWidgets itself for this purpose.

Parameters:	c (int) – An output pointer to the value of this Unicode character as a `char` . Must be not `None`.
Return type:	bool
Returns:	`True` if the object is an 8 bit int and c was filled with its value as int or `False` otherwise (c won’t be modified then).

New in version 2.9.1.
