Unicode version supported by Java 6

问题

Anyone know the answer? According to http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/core/basic/intl/faq.jsp, it's 4.0 for 5. Has it been upgraded in 6? Link to reference would be much appreciated as well.

回答1:

According to the ICU (International Components for Unicode), Java 6 is Unicode 4

I needed to know the Unicode version supported by a particular Java version for several times, why not answer one of these questions to make it easier for the next time. So, a 7 YEARS LATER answer:

From Unicode Versions Supported in Java-History, last updated in 2012:

JEPs

The OpenJDK project publishes a JEP document for each version incrementing Unicode.

• JEP 128: Unicode BCP 47 Locale Matching in Java SE 8.
• JEP 133 adds support for Unicode 6.2 in Java 8.
  See also: Internationalization Enhancements in JDK 8.

  JEP 267 adds support for Unicode 8 in Java SE 9 as well.
• JEP 314: Additional Unicode Language-Tag Extensions in Java SE 10. (Tags for currency type, the first day of the week, region override and time zone will now be supported.)
• JEP 327 adds Unicode 10 support in Java SE 11.
• Release Note: Support for Unicode 11 explains support for Unicode 11 in Java 12.
