All Implemented Interfaces:

IntPredicate, CharacterClass

Enclosing class:

Categories
```
public static class Categories.Category
extends Object
implements CharacterClass
```
A Category is a CharacterClass represented in a regular expression as \p{Xx}. The label Xx is retained, and can be used to determine whether or not two categories are disjoint.

    Description copied from interface: CharacterClass
    
    Ask whether this character class is known to be disjoint with another character class (that is, the two classes have no characters in common). If in doubt, return false.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isDisjoint in interface CharacterClass
    
    Parameters:
    
    other - the other character class
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the character classes are known to be disjoint; false if there may be characters in common between the two classes
