MinLength and MaxLength validator failed in official test suites due to Java string Unicode handling "\uD83D\uDCA9\uD83D\uDCA9"

[stevehu]

The following test failed as Java string length function returns 4 instead of 2 for those special characters. Similar test in MinLength failed too.

[
{
"description": "maxLength validation",
"schema": {"maxLength": 2},
"tests": [
{
"description": "two supplementary Unicode code points is long enough",
"data": "\uD83D\uDCA9\uD83D\uDCA9",
"valid": true
}
]
}
]

Have a look at the String.codePointCount() function to correctly handle the length of unicode strings.

@dola Thank you so much for pointing me to the right direction. I have updated the code and added back the test cases. Works perfectly. Will have another release shortly.
