Legend: * <pre> * \code * {optional item} * (group that may be repeated)* * \endcode * </pre> * Do not confuse optional items with items inside quotes braces, such * as this: "{". Quoted braces are literals. * <pre> * \code * messageFormatPattern := string ( "{" messageFormatElement "}" string )* * * messageFormatElement := argument { "," elementFormat } * * elementFormat := "time" { "," datetimeStyle } * | "date" { "," datetimeStyle } * | "number" { "," numberStyle } * | "choice" "," choiceStyle * * datetimeStyle := "short" * | "medium" * | "long" * | "full" * | dateFormatPattern * * numberStyle := "currency" * | "percent" * | "integer" * | numberFormatPattern * * choiceStyle := choiceFormatPattern * \endcode * </pre> * 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.getInstance(), * DateFormat.getDefaultTime() or DateFormat.getDefaultDate(). For * a ChoiceFormat, the pattern must always be specified, since there * is no default. * <P> * In strings, single quotes can be used to quote the "{" sign if * necessary. A real single quote is represented by ''. 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". * <P> * 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. * <p> * <dl><dt><b>Warning:</b><dd>The rules for using quotes within message * format patterns unfortunately have shown to be somewhat confusing. * In particular, it isn't always obvious to localizers whether single * quotes need to be doubled or not. Make sure to inform localizers about * the rules, and tell them (for example, by using comments in resource * bundle source files) which strings will be processed by MessageFormat. * Note that localizers may need to use single quotes in translated * strings where the original version doesn't have them. * <br>Note also that the simplest way to avoid the problem is to * use the real apostrophe (single quote) character U+2019 (') for * human-readable text, and to use the ASCII apostrophe (U+0027 ' ) * only in program syntax, like quoting in MessageFormat. * See the annotations for U+0027 Apostrophe in The Unicode Standard.</p> * </dl> * <P> * The argument is a number from 0 to 9, which corresponds to the * arguments presented in an array to be formatted. * <P> * It is ok 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. * <P> * <P> * [Note:] As we see above, the string produced by a choice Format in * MessageFormat is treated specially; occurances of '{' are used to * indicated subformats. * <P> * [Note:] Formats are numbered by order of variable in the string. * This is [not] the same as the argument numbering! * <pre> * \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 * </pre> * and so on. */ /** * Format a message for a locale. * This function may perform re-ordering of the arguments depending on the * locale.
