C# in a Nutshell

StringInfo

Synopsis

This class allows you to manipulate a string by its individual elements. Each separately displayed character is considered a text element. This includes base characters and the Unicode-defined surrogate pairs and combining character sequences. The class provides enumeration of the elements in the string, as well as a means of further identifying combining characters. ParseCombiningCharacters() returns only the indexes of the base characters, high surrogates, and combined characters within a string.
