Class DecimalFormatSymbols

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.text.DecimalFormatSymbols
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable

public class DecimalFormatSymbols
extends Object
implements Cloneable, Serializable

Disabled: no SafeJ information.

This class represents the set of symbols (such as the decimal separator, the grouping separator, and so on) needed by DecimalFormat to format numbers. DecimalFormat creates for itself an instance of DecimalFormatSymbols from its locale data. If you need to change any of these symbols, you can get the DecimalFormatSymbols object from your DecimalFormat and modify it.

Constructor Detail

DecimalFormatSymbols

public DecimalFormatSymbols()
Class is disabled.

Create a DecimalFormatSymbols object for the default locale. This constructor can only construct instances for the locales supported by the Java runtime environment, not for those supported by installed DecimalFormatSymbolsProvider implementations. For full locale coverage, use the getInstance method.


DecimalFormatSymbols

public DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale locale)
Class is disabled.

Create a DecimalFormatSymbols object for the given locale. This constructor can only construct instances for the locales supported by the Java runtime environment, not for those supported by installed DecimalFormatSymbolsProvider implementations. For full locale coverage, use the getInstance method.

Throws:
NullPointerException - if locale is null
Method Detail

getAvailableLocales

public static Locale[] getAvailableLocales()
Class is disabled.

Returns an array of all locales for which the getInstance methods of this class can return localized instances. The returned array represents the union of locales supported by the Java runtime and by installed DecimalFormatSymbolsProvider implementations. It must contain at least a Locale instance equal to Locale.US.

Returns:
An array of locales for which localized DecimalFormatSymbols instances are available.
Since:
1.6

getInstance

public static final DecimalFormatSymbols getInstance()
Class is disabled.

Gets the DecimalFormatSymbols instance for the default locale. This method provides access to DecimalFormatSymbols instances for locales supported by the Java runtime itself as well as for those supported by installed DecimalFormatSymbolsProvider implementations.

Returns:
a DecimalFormatSymbols instance.
Since:
1.6

getInstance

public static final DecimalFormatSymbols getInstance(Locale locale)
Class is disabled.

Gets the DecimalFormatSymbols instance for the specified locale. This method provides access to DecimalFormatSymbols instances for locales supported by the Java runtime itself as well as for those supported by installed DecimalFormatSymbolsProvider implementations.

Parameters:
locale - the desired locale.
Returns:
a DecimalFormatSymbols instance.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if locale is null
Since:
1.6
