This class was deprecated in API level 30.

The functionality this class offers is easily implemented outside the framework.

An AlteredCharSequence is a CharSequence that is largely mirrored from another CharSequence, except that a specified range of characters are mirrored from a different char array instead.

open Unit	getChars(start: Int, end: Int, dest: CharArray!, off: Int)
open static AlteredCharSequence!	make(source: CharSequence!, sub: CharArray!, substart: Int, subend: Int) Create an AlteredCharSequence whose text (and possibly spans) are mirrored from source, except that the range of offsets substart inclusive to subend exclusive are mirrored instead from sub, beginning at offset 0.
open CharSequence	subSequence(startIndex: Int, endIndex: Int)
