MessagePattern.Part

Kotlin |Java

public static final class MessagePattern.Part
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.icu.text.MessagePattern.Part

A message pattern "part", representing a pattern parsing event. There is a part for the start and end of a message or argument, for quoting and escaping of and with ASCII apostrophes, and for syntax elements of "complex" arguments.

Summary

Public methods
`boolean`	`equals(Object other)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`MessagePattern.ArgType`	`getArgType()` Returns the argument type if this part is of type ARG_START or ARG_LIMIT, otherwise ArgType.NONE.
`int`	`getIndex()` Returns the pattern string index associated with this Part.
`int`	`getLength()` Returns the length of the pattern substring associated with this Part.
`int`	`getLimit()` Returns the pattern string limit (exclusive-end) index associated with this Part.
`MessagePattern.Part.Type`	`getType()` Returns the type of this part.
`int`	`getValue()` Returns a value associated with this part.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.

Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

Public methods

equals

Added in API level 24

public boolean equals (Object other)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
`other`	`Object`: another object to compare with.

Returns
`boolean`	true if this object is equivalent to the other one.

getArgType

Added in API level 24

public MessagePattern.ArgType getArgType ()

Returns the argument type if this part is of type ARG_START or ARG_LIMIT, otherwise ArgType.NONE.

Returns
`MessagePattern.ArgType`	the argument type for this part.

getIndex

Added in API level 24

public int getIndex ()

Returns the pattern string index associated with this Part.

Returns
`int`	this part's pattern string index.

getLength

Added in API level 24

public int getLength ()

Returns the length of the pattern substring associated with this Part. This is 0 for some parts.

Returns
`int`	this part's pattern substring length.

getLimit

Added in API level 24

public int getLimit ()

Returns the pattern string limit (exclusive-end) index associated with this Part. Convenience method for getIndex()+getLength().

Returns
`int`	this part's pattern string limit index, same as getIndex()+getLength().

getType

Added in API level 24

public MessagePattern.Part.Type getType ()

Returns the type of this part.

Returns
`MessagePattern.Part.Type`	the part type.

getValue

Added in API level 24

public int getValue ()

Returns a value associated with this part. See the documentation of each part type for details.

Returns
`int`	the part value.

hashCode

Added in API level 24

public int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

Returns
`int`	a hash code value for this object.

toString

Added in API level 24

public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns
`String`	a string representation of this part.
