Extracts the integral character code of the first character in the source string attribute, and adds its integer value in the character set to the feature as another attribute.
This can be used to obtain the integer code of any Unicode character (from Basic Multilingual Plane), including non-printable ones.
Parameters
Source String Attribute
The attribute that contains the character for which you would like to find the equivalent numeric code
Character Code Attribute
The name of the attribute that will store the resulting integer value.
Example
For example, a CJK unified ideograph 东 character as the first character of the source string attribute would result in a value of 19996 (U+4E1C) being placed in the character code attribute.
Usage Notes
To obtain the character equivalent of a numeric value, use the CharacterEncoder transformer.
