AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute

public static class AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute
extends Object implements Serializable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ java.text.AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute
Format.Field Defines constants that are used as attribute keys in the AttributedCharacterIterator returned from Format.formatToCharacterIterator and as field identifiers in FieldPosition
TextAttribute The TextAttribute class defines attribute keys and attribute values used for text rendering. 
DateFormat.Field Defines constants that are used as attribute keys in the AttributedCharacterIterator returned from DateFormat.formatToCharacterIterator and as field identifiers in FieldPosition
MessageFormat.Field Defines constants that are used as attribute keys in the AttributedCharacterIterator returned from MessageFormat.formatToCharacterIterator
NumberFormat.Field The instances of this inner class are used as attribute keys and values in AttributedCharacterIterator that NumberFormat.formatToCharacterIterator() method returns. 


Defines attribute keys that are used to identify text attributes. These keys are used in AttributedCharacterIterator and AttributedString.

Summary

Fields

public static final AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute INPUT_METHOD_SEGMENT

Attribute key for input method segments.

Attribute key for the language of some text.

public static final AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute READING

Attribute key for the reading of some text.

Protected constructors

Attribute(String name)

Constructs an Attribute with the given name.

Public methods

final boolean equals(Object obj)

Compares two objects for equality.

final int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Protected methods

String getName()

Returns the name of the attribute.

Object readResolve()

Resolves instances being deserialized to the predefined constants.

Inherited methods

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.

Fields

INPUT_METHOD_SEGMENT

Added in API level 1
public static final AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute INPUT_METHOD_SEGMENT

Attribute key for input method segments. Input methods often break up text into segments, which usually correspond to words.

Values are instances of Annotation holding a null reference.

See also:

LANGUAGE

Added in API level 1
public static final AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute LANGUAGE

Attribute key for the language of some text.

Values are instances of Locale.

See also:

READING

Added in API level 1
public static final AttributedCharacterIterator.Attribute READING

Attribute key for the reading of some text. In languages where the written form and the pronunciation of a word are only loosely related (such as Japanese), it is often necessary to store the reading (pronunciation) along with the written form.

Values are instances of Annotation holding instances of String.

Protected constructors

Attribute

Added in API level 1
protected Attribute (String name)

Constructs an Attribute with the given name.

Parameters
name String: the name of Attribute

Public methods

equals

Added in API level 1
public final boolean equals (Object obj)

Compares two objects for equality. This version only returns true for x.equals(y) if x and y refer to the same object, and guarantees this for all subclasses.

Parameters
obj Object: the reference object with which to compare.

Returns
boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

hashCode

Added in API level 1
public final int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This version is identical to the one in Object, but is also final.

Returns
int a hash code value for this object.

toString

Added in API level 1
public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object. This version returns the concatenation of class name, "(", a name identifying the attribute and ")".

Returns
String a string representation of the object.

Protected methods

getName

Added in API level 1
protected String getName ()

Returns the name of the attribute.

Returns
String the name of Attribute

readResolve

Added in API level 1
protected Object readResolve ()

Resolves instances being deserialized to the predefined constants.

Returns
Object the resolved Attribute object

Throws
InvalidObjectException if the object to resolve is not an instance of Attribute
