Converting escaped UTF-16 code units
<?php $s = "\u304A\u65E9\u3046\u3054\u3056\u3044\u307E\u3059"; echo transliterator_transliterate("Hex-Any/Java", $s), "\n"; //now the reverse operation with a supplementary character $supplChar = html_entity_decode('𝄞'); echo mb_strlen($supplChar, "UTF-8"), "\n"; $encSupplChar = transliterator_transliterate("Any-Hex/Java", $supplChar); //echoes two encoded UTF-16 code units echo $encSupplChar, "\n"; //and back echo transliterator_transliterate("Hex-Any/Java", $encSupplChar), "\n"; ?>
The above example will output something similar to:
