What are you trying to achieve. I am not familiar with the Java functions.
Most things to deal with encoding are in the System.Text.Encoding namespace.

Some of its functionality is covered by UnicodeCategory type, and
GetUnicodeCategory() method. However, it does not cover named Unicode
blocks (such as Greek or Cyrillic). The closest you can get to that,
as far as I know, is to use regexes such as @"\p{IsGreek}". If you
need to determine the category, rather than checking whether a
character belongs to some specific category, then it could be done
with a regex which chooses between all possible named groups inside
subexpressions, and then get the number of subexpression that matched.
