UTF codepoints in Java

So, we needed to do some UTF-8 code matchings. And someone grabbed the proper UTF-8 document and was talking code points.
And then you notice that java 7 has no nice way to determine code points...
*really*, it's only been 7 versions and it's still not well.
At least, a snippet to show the proper code point:



    public static String printCharacters(final String s) {

        for (final int codepoint : codePoints(s)) {
            // we need Character.toChars and new String since we cannot call back to the specific character from the string from the iterator. 
            System.out.println(new String(Character.toChars(codepoint)) + "is of type: "+ typeToString(Character.getType(codepoint));
        }
    }
    /** java 7 doesn't have a nice support for determining code points. Java 8 does... */
    public static Iterable<Integer> codePoints(final String string) {
        return new Iterable<Integer>() {
            @Override
            public Iterator<Integer> iterator() {
                return new Iterator<Integer>() {
                    int nextIndex = 0;

                    @Override
                    public boolean hasNext() {
                        return nextIndex < string.length();
                    }

                    @Override
                    public Integer next() {
                        final int result = string.codePointAt(nextIndex);
                        nextIndex += Character.charCount(result);
                        return result;
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void remove() {
                        throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
                    }
                };
            }
        };
    }   

    public static String typeToString(final int type) {
