## java.lang
Class Character.Subset

    java.lang.Object
      |
      +--java.lang.Character.Subset

Direct Known Subclasses:
  Character.UnicodeBlock

Enclosing class:
  Character

public static class Character.Subset
extends Object

Instances of this class represent particular subsets of the Unicode character set. The only family of subsets defined in the `Character` class is ``UnicodeBlock``. Other portions of the Java API may define other subsets for their own purposes.

Since:
  1.2

Constructor Summary
`protected` | `Character.Subset(String name)` Constructs a new `Subset` instance.

Method Summary
`boolean` | `equals(Object obj)` Compares two `Subset` objects for equality.
`int` | `hashCode()` Returns the standard hash code as defined by the ``Object.hashCode()`` method.
`String` | `toString()` Returns the name of this subset.

Constructor Detail

### Character.Subset

    protected Character.Subset(String name)

  Constructs a new `Subset` instance.
  Parameters:
    `name` - The name of this subset

Method Detail

### equals

    public final boolean equals(Object obj)

  Compares two `Subset` objects for equality. This method returns `true` if and only if `x` and `y` refer to the same object, and because it is final it guarantees this for all subclasses.
  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `Object`
  Following copied from class: `java.lang.Object`
  Parameters:
    `obj` - the reference object with which to compare.
  Returns:
    `true` if this object is the same as the obj argument; `false` otherwise.
  See Also:
    `Boolean.hashCode()`, `Hashtable`

### hashCode

    public final int hashCode()

  Returns the standard hash code as defined by the ``Object.hashCode()`` method. This method is final in order to ensure that the `equals` and `hashCode` methods will be consistent in all subclasses.
  Overrides:
    `hashCode` in class `Object`
  Following copied from class: `java.lang.Object`
  Returns:
    a hash code value for this object.
  See Also:
    `Object.equals(java.lang.Object)`, `Hashtable`

### toString

    public final String toString()

  Returns the name of this subset.
  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `Object`
  Following copied from class: `java.lang.Object`
  Returns:
    a string representation of the object.
