You are correct about the similarities but you can get paid much more for Java around here. It's also easier to get a Java job. I'm partial to C#.

I think one needs a "major": machine learning; "big" data; security; quantum computing; robotics; etc. Otherwise, you'll just wind up maintaining somebody's web site. Which implies continued learning and embracing / avoiding trends (which last year was "blockchain").

So I'm wrapping this
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
And I've traversed all the nastiness with Unicode's non-breaking spaces, and invisible breaks and all of that.
I get this:
The quick
brown
fox jumped
over the
lazy dog
Look at the 2nd line.
"Oh just remove the whitespace around the line" they said
"It will be easy" they said
"You can call char.IsWhitespace()" except wait.
This isn't .NET. It's an IoT machine with C++
C++ doesn't do 32-bit codepoints out of the box.
Do have any idea how hard it is to determine if a character is whitespace in Unicode?
I need a massive table.

I have a simple(r) solution.
Print the character to an image (in-memory, obviously).
Now connect to some OCR service and let it scan the image.
If the result is null, "", " " or "
" it's whitespace.
Just thinking outside the box

Hmmm,
Can you go into technical details about the difficulties? I can't figure out why you need 'a massive table'.
|

I guess they match.

The table isn't as big as a thought. A long time ago I wrote something to spit out character class tables, and I thought I remembered the whitespace one being huge. It's not, now that I looked it up.
Still, it's larger than I'd like.

isWhitespace[^]
Btw, now that .NET is using ICU[^] this should match the C# behavior. (I just checked ICU docs to confirm)
|

Yeah, but I'm not using .NET, and my platform doesn't understand unicode beyond wchar_t which I can't even use.

I'm saying that you can write a C function for your IoT device that will duplicate Java and C# whitespace behavior simply by checking for those 12 values. They are all doing the same thing as ICU.

Ohhhh thanks. Sorry, it was early and I was still a bit slow. I'll do that.

Does the OS you're using not have ICU[^] support built-in?

Many IoT devices, don't have an OS.

What OS? FreeRTOS? No. And it wouldn't know what to do with truetype anyway. It has no concept of graphics

No idea, but shouldn't it be "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"?
