Method Detail
getPeriodFormatter
public static java.text.Format getPeriodFormatter(java.lang.String pattern, LocaleInfo localeInfo)
Gets the Joda period formatter for a pattern. This formatter does not implement theFormat
interface unlike the others.When using a formatter, the duration is converted to or from a standard period that makes the assumption that all weeks are 7 days, all days are 24 hours, all hours are 60 minutes and all minutes are 60 seconds. This is not true when daylight savings time is considered, and may also not be true for some unusual chronologies. However, it is included as it is a useful operation for many applications and business rules.
- Parameters:
pattern
- The pattern for the formatter. If the pattern isnull
, null is returned as the formatter because the duration should be formatted asduration.toString()
.localeInfo
- The locale information or null for default locale.Available languages are English, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish and Swedish.
- Returns:
- The formatter.
- Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- If the pattern is not valid.
