Bug 168198 – Update isEmojiGroupCandidate() to the latest version of Unicode

• Component: Text
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Myles C. Maxfield]

In the latest version of Unicode, many more emoji are allowed to join. Instead of checking each individual range, we should just check to see if the character is:

U+2640 FEMALE SIGN
U+2642 MALE SIGN
U+26F9 PERSON WITH BALL
U+2695 STAFF OF AESCULAPIUS
U+2696 SCALES
U+2708 AIRPLANE
U+2764 HEAVY BLACK HEART
The Unicode block is UBLOCK_MISCELLANEOUS_SYMBOLS_AND_PICTOGRAPHS
The Unicode block is UBLOCK_EMOTICONS
The Unicode block is UBLOCK_TRANSPORT_AND_MAP_SYMBOLS
The Unicode block is UBLOCK_SUPPLEMENTAL_SYMBOLS_AND_PICTOGRAPHS

Alternatively, instead of checking individual code points at all, we may wish to simply check if the block is UBLOCK_MISCELLANEOUS_SYMBOLS or UBLOCK_DINGBATS

Hey Myles, the ICU_HEADERS_UNDERSTAND_SUPPLEMENTAL_SYMBOLS_AND_PICTOGRAPHS case is missing a return statement when if (useSupplementalSymbolsAndPictographs) is false! Bad!

Problem is... they seem bogus.

Whoops, I meant to delete that bit of the comment. I at first got confused and didn't notice the problem.
