[jira] [Updated] (GROOVY-11252) StringGroovyMethods should have a getCodePoints method

["Paul King (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11252?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Paul King updated GROOVY-11252:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
The String class has:
{code}
byte[] getBytes()
{code}

Groovy provides in StringGroovyMethods:
{code}
char[] getChars(final CharSequence self)
{code}

I propose adding to StringGroovyMethods:
{code}
int[] getCodePoints(final CharSequence self)
{code}

It is basically just a shortcut to ".codePoints().toArray()" but allows traditional Groovy conventions of using the "codePoints" property.
