Class L10nDateFormat

java.lang.Object

java.text.Format

java.text.DateFormat

de.ipcon.tools.L10nDateFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:

L10nFormatI, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class L10nDateFormat
extends java.text.DateFormat
implements L10nFormatI

This class just adds a getPattern-Method so that we can extract the original pattern again out of it. Although the original implementation has a very fast access to the pattern (in contrast to DecimalFormat btw), we need the pattern in raw, as we put some additional information in it, which have to be filtered out before given to the underlying SimpleDateFormat object. Things added so far are:

• functionality for getting default formatters like FULL, LONG, MEDIUM, SHORT and DEFAULT
• setting explicit locales with prefixing locales like [en_US] infront of formats
• setting explicit timezone with prefixing timezone names like [TZ=Europe/Berlin] infront of formats (after locales)

Method Detail

getInstance

public static L10nDateFormat getInstance(java.lang.String _pattern)

Constructor is private, because the superclass SimpleDateFormat will set some properties on constructor while we still have to extract timezone, locale and other inband information out of the pattern. As instances of this class are pooled anyway by @see de.ipcon.tools.L10n, we don't jump through hoops to get this done in the constructor, though..

getInstance

public static L10nDateFormat getInstance(java.lang.String _pattern,
                                         java.util.Locale _locale)

getInstance

public static L10nDateFormat getInstance(java.lang.String _pattern,
                                         java.util.Locale _locale,
                                         java.util.TimeZone _timeZone)

hasFixedLocale

public boolean hasFixedLocale()

Specified by:

hasFixedLocale in interface L10nFormatI

getKindFromString

public static int getKindFromString(java.lang.String kind)

returns internal int type of the given String. Underscore maps to 'none'

getPattern

public java.lang.String getPattern()

Specified by:

getPattern in interface L10nFormatI

getCookedPattern

public java.lang.String getCookedPattern()

getLocale

public java.util.Locale getLocale()

getTimeZone

public java.util.TimeZone getTimeZone()

Overrides:

getTimeZone in class java.text.DateFormat

parse

public java.util.Date parse(java.lang.String in,
                            java.text.ParsePosition pp)

Specified by:

parse in class java.text.DateFormat

format

public java.lang.StringBuffer format(java.util.Date d,
                                     java.lang.StringBuffer out,
                                     java.text.FieldPosition fp)
