/usr/include/unicode/msgfmt.h (39435B)
* A MessageFormat contains an array of subformats arranged * within a template string. Together, the subformats and * template string determine how the MessageFormat will operate during * formatting and parsing. *
* Typically, both the subformats and the template string are * specified at once in a pattern. By using different * patterns for different locales, messages may be localized. *
* During formatting, the MessageFormat takes an array of arguments * and produces a user-readable string. Each argument is a * Formattable object; they may be passed in in an array, or as a * single Formattable object which itself contains an array. Each * argument is matched up with its corresponding subformat, which then * formats it into a string. The resultant strings are then assembled * within the string template of the MessageFormat to produce the * final output string. *
* Note:
* In ICU 4.0 MessageFormat supports named arguments. If a named argument
* is used, all arguments must be named. Names start with a character in
* UCHAR_ID_START and continue with characters in
* UCHARID_CONTINUE, in particular they do not start with a digit.
* If named arguments are used, {@link #usesNamedArguments()} will return true.
*
* The other new methods supporting named arguments are
* {@link #getFormatNames(UErrorCode& status)},
* {@link #getFormat(const UnicodeString& formatName, UErrorCode& status)}
* {@link #setFormat(const UnicodeString& formatName, const Format& format, UErrorCode& status)},
* {@link #adoptFormat(const UnicodeString& formatName, Format* formatToAdopt, UErrorCode& status)},
* {@link #format(const Formattable* arguments, const UnicodeString *argumentNames, int32_t cnt, UnicodeString& appendTo, FieldPosition& status, int32_t recursionProtection, UErrorCode& success)},
* {@link #format(const UnicodeString* argumentNames, const Formattable* arguments, int32_t count, UnicodeString& appendTo,UErrorCode& status)}.
* These methods are all compatible with patterns that do not used named arguments--
* in these cases the keys in the input or output use UnicodeStrings
* that name the argument indices, e.g. "0", "1", "2"... etc.
*
* When named arguments are used, certain methods on MessageFormat that take or * return arrays do not perform any action, since it is not possible to * identify positions in an array using a name. UErrorCode is set to * U_ARGUMENT_TYPE_MISMATCH if there is a status/success field in the method. * These methods are * {@link #adoptFormats(Format** formatsToAdopt, int32_t count)}, * {@link #setFormats(const Format** newFormats,int32_t count)}, * {@link #adoptFormat(int32_t n, Format *newFormat)}, * {@link #getFormats(int32_t& count)}, * {@link #format(const Formattable* source,int32_t cnt,UnicodeString& appendTo, FieldPosition& ignore, UErrorCode& success)}, * {@link #format(const UnicodeString& pattern,const Formattable* arguments,int32_t cnt,UnicodeString& appendTo,UErrorCode& success)}, * {@link #format(const Formattable& source, UnicodeString& appendTo,FieldPosition& ignore, UErrorCode& success)}, * {@link #format(const Formattable* arguments, int32_t cnt, UnicodeString& appendTo, FieldPosition& status, int32_t recursionProtection,UErrorCode& success)}, * {@link #parse(const UnicodeString& source, ParsePosition& pos,int32_t& count)}, * {@link #parse(const UnicodeString& source, int32_t& cnt, UErrorCode& status)} *
* *
* During parsing, an input string is matched against the string * template of the MessageFormat to produce an array of Formattable * objects. Plain text of the template string is matched directly * against intput text. At each position in the template string where * a subformat is located, the subformat is called to parse the * corresponding segment of input text to produce an output argument. * In this way, an array of arguments is created which together * constitute the parse result. *
* Parsing may fail or produce unexpected results in a number of * circumstances. *
* Example 1: *
* \code
* UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* GregorianCalendar cal(success);
* Formattable arguments[] = {
* 7L,
* Formattable( (Date) cal.getTime(success), Formattable::kIsDate),
* "a disturbance in the Force"
* };
*
* UnicodeString result;
* MessageFormat::format(
* "At {1,time} on {1,date}, there was {2} on planet {0,number}.",
* arguments, 3, result, success );
*
* cout << "result: " << result << endl;
* //
* Typically, the message format will come from resources, and the
* arguments will be dynamically set at runtime.
* * Example 2: *
* \code
* success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* Formattable testArgs[] = {3L, "MyDisk"};
*
* MessageFormat form(
* "The disk \"{1}\" contains {0} file(s).", success );
*
* UnicodeString string;
* FieldPosition fpos = 0;
* cout << "format: " << form.format(testArgs, 2, string, fpos, success ) << endl;
*
* // output, with different testArgs:
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains 0 file(s).
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains 1 file(s).
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains 1,273 file(s).
* \endcode
*
*
* The pattern is of the following form. Legend:
*
* \code
* {optional item}
* (group that may be repeated)*
* \endcode
*
* Do not confuse optional items with items inside quotes braces, such
* as this: "{". Quoted braces are literals.
*
* \code
* messageFormatPattern := string ( "{" messageFormatElement "}" string )*
*
* messageFormatElement := argumentIndex | argumentName { "," elementFormat }
*
* elementFormat := "time" { "," datetimeStyle }
* | "date" { "," datetimeStyle }
* | "number" { "," numberStyle }
* | "choice" "," choiceStyle
*
* datetimeStyle := "short"
* | "medium"
* | "long"
* | "full"
* | dateFormatPattern
*
* numberStyle := "currency"
* | "percent"
* | "integer"
* | numberFormatPattern
*
* choiceStyle := choiceFormatPattern
*
* pluralStyle := pluralFormatPattern
* \endcode
*
* If there is no elementFormat, then the argument must be a string,
* which is substituted. If there is no dateTimeStyle or numberStyle,
* then the default format is used (e.g. NumberFormat::createInstance(),
* DateFormat::createTimeInstance(DateFormat::kDefault, ...) or DateFormat::createDateInstance(DateFormat::kDefault, ...). For
* a ChoiceFormat, the pattern must always be specified, since there
* is no default.
* * In strings, single quotes can be used to quote syntax characters. * A literal single quote is represented by '', both within and outside * of single-quoted segments. Inside a * messageFormatElement, quotes are not removed. For example, * {1,number,$'#',##} will produce a number format with the pound-sign * quoted, with a result such as: "$#31,45". *
* If a pattern is used, then unquoted braces in the pattern, if any, * must match: that is, "ab {0} de" and "ab '}' de" are ok, but "ab * {0'}' de" and "ab } de" are not. *
*
* The argumentIndex is a non-negative integer, which corresponds to the * index of the arguments presented in an array to be formatted. The * first argument has argumentIndex 0. *
* It is acceptable to have unused arguments in the array. With missing * arguments or arguments that are not of the right class for the * specified format, a failing UErrorCode result is set. *
* For more sophisticated patterns, you can use a ChoiceFormat to get * output: *
* \code
* UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* MessageFormat* form("The disk \"{1}\" contains {0}.", success);
* double filelimits[] = {0,1,2};
* UnicodeString filepart[] = {"no files","one file","{0,number} files"};
* ChoiceFormat* fileform = new ChoiceFormat(filelimits, filepart, 3);
* form.setFormat(1, *fileform); // NOT zero, see below
*
* Formattable testArgs[] = {1273L, "MyDisk"};
*
* UnicodeString string;
* FieldPosition fpos = 0;
* cout << form.format(testArgs, 2, string, fpos, success) << endl;
*
* // output, with different testArgs
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains no files.
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains one file.
* // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains 1,273 files.
* \endcode
*
* You can either do this programmatically, as in the above example,
* or by using a pattern (see ChoiceFormat for more information) as in:
*
* \code
* form.applyPattern(
* "There {0,choice,0#are no files|1#is one file|1
*
* Note: As we see above, the string produced by a ChoiceFormat in
* MessageFormat is treated specially; occurences of '{' are used to
* indicated subformats, and cause recursion. If you create both a
* MessageFormat and ChoiceFormat programmatically (instead of using
* the string patterns), then be careful not to produce a format that
* recurses on itself, which will cause an infinite loop.
*
* Note: Subformats are numbered by their order in the pattern.
* This is not the same as the argumentIndex.
*
* \code
* For example: with "abc{2}def{3}ghi{0}...",
*
* format0 affects the first variable {2}
* format1 affects the second variable {3}
* format2 affects the second variable {0}
* \endcode
*
*
* User subclasses are not supported. While clients may write
* subclasses, such code will not necessarily work and will not be
* guaranteed to work stably from release to release.
