ChoiceFormat is probably not what you need. * Please use MessageFormat * with plural arguments for proper plural selection, * and select arguments for simple selection among a fixed set of choices!

* *

A ChoiceFormat splits * the real number line \htmlonly-∞ to * +∞\endhtmlonly into two * or more contiguous ranges. Each range is mapped to a * string.

* *

ChoiceFormat was originally intended * for displaying grammatically correct * plurals such as "There is one file." vs. "There are 2 files." * However, plural rules for many languages * are too complex for the capabilities of ChoiceFormat, * and its requirement of specifying the precise rules for each message * is unmanageable for translators.

* *

There are two methods of defining a ChoiceFormat; both * are equivalent. The first is by using a string pattern. This is the * preferred method in most cases. The second method is through direct * specification of the arrays that logically make up the * ChoiceFormat.

* *

Note: Typically, choice formatting is done (if done at all) via MessageFormat * with a choice argument type, * rather than using a stand-alone ChoiceFormat.

* *
Patterns and Their Interpretation
* *

The pattern string defines the range boundaries and the strings for each number range. * Syntax: *

 * choiceStyle = number separator message ('|' number separator message)*
 * number = normal_number | ['-'] \htmlonly∞\endhtmlonly (U+221E, infinity)
 * normal_number = double value (unlocalized ASCII string)
 * separator = less_than | less_than_or_equal
 * less_than = '<'
 * less_than_or_equal = '#' | \htmlonly≤\endhtmlonly (U+2264)
 * message: see {@link MessageFormat}
 * 
* Pattern_White_Space between syntax elements is ignored, except * around each range's sub-message.

* *

Each numeric sub-range extends from the current range's number * to the next range's number. * The number itself is included in its range if a less_than_or_equal sign is used, * and excluded from its range (and instead included in the previous range) * if a less_than sign is used.

* *

When a ChoiceFormat is constructed from * arrays of numbers, closure flags and strings, * they are interpreted just like * the sequence of (number separator string) in an equivalent pattern string. * closure[i]==TRUE corresponds to a less_than separator sign. * The equivalent pattern string will be constructed automatically.

* *

During formatting, a number is mapped to the first range * where the number is not greater than the range's upper limit. * That range's message string is returned. A NaN maps to the very first range.

* *

During parsing, a range is selected for the longest match of * any range's message. That range's number is returned, ignoring the separator/closure. * Only a simple string match is performed, without parsing of arguments that * might be specified in the message strings.

* *

Note that the first range's number is ignored in formatting * but may be returned from parsing.

* *
Examples
* *

Here is an example of two arrays that map the number * 1..7 to the English day of the week abbreviations * Sun..Sat. No closures array is given; this is the same as * specifying all closures to be FALSE.

* *
    {1,2,3,4,5,6,7},
 *     {"Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thur","Fri","Sat"}
* *

Here is an example that maps the ranges [-Inf, 1), [1, 1], and (1, * +Inf] to three strings. That is, the number line is split into three * ranges: x < 1.0, x = 1.0, and x > 1.0. * (The round parentheses in the notation above indicate an exclusive boundary, * like the turned bracket in European notation: [-Inf, 1) == [-Inf, 1[ )

* *
    {0, 1, 1},
 *     {FALSE, FALSE, TRUE},
 *     {"no files", "one file", "many files"}
* *

Here is an example that shows formatting and parsing:

* * \code * #include * #include * #include * * int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { * double limits[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7}; * UnicodeString monthNames[] = { * "Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat"}; * ChoiceFormat fmt(limits, monthNames, 7); * UnicodeString str; * char buf[256]; * for (double x = 1.0; x <= 8.0; x += 1.0) { * fmt.format(x, str); * str.extract(0, str.length(), buf, 256, ""); * str.truncate(0); * cout << x << " -> " * << buf << endl; * } * cout << endl; * return 0; * } * \endcode * *
