public interface IValueObject<TYPE>
Interface to create a value object for the data type, or to convert to it.

Pattern is defined to be able to select formatters of different types, before passing in the rest of the pattern. If this is the case, the pattern string must begin with [type], where "type" is one of:

  • "short" (for date/time)
  • "medium" (for date/time)
  • "long" (for date/time)
  • "full" (for date/time)
  • integer (for numeric values)
  • currency (for numeric values)
  • percent (for numeric values)

In addition, the resolver style for how a value is parsed from a String can be specified in the start of the pattern as:

  • [strict],
  • [smart], or
  • [lenient].

    • RESOLVER_STRICT

      static final String RESOLVER_STRICT
      Resolver style for parsing date/time, should precede the pattern string.

      Style to resolve dates and times strictly.

      Using strict resolution will ensure that all parsed values are within the outer range of valid values for the field. Individual fields may be further processed for strictness.

      For example, resolving year-month and day-of-month in the ISO calendar system using strict mode will ensure that the day-of-month is valid for the year-month, rejecting invalid values.

      See Also:

    • RESOLVER_STRICT_NO_BRACKETS

      static final String RESOLVER_STRICT_NO_BRACKETS
      See Also:

    • RESOLVER_SMART

      static final String RESOLVER_SMART
      Resolver style for parsing date/time, should precede the pattern string.

      Style to resolve dates and times in a smart, or intelligent, manner.

      Using smart resolution will perform the sensible default for each field, which may be the same as strict, the same as lenient, or a third behavior. Individual fields will interpret this differently.

      For example, resolving year-month and day-of-month in the ISO calendar system using smart mode will ensure that the day-of-month is from 1 to 31, converting any value beyond the last valid day-of-month to be the last valid day-of-month.

      See Also:

    • RESOLVER_SMART_NO_BRACKETS

      static final String RESOLVER_SMART_NO_BRACKETS
      See Also:

    • RESOLVER_LENIENT

      static final String RESOLVER_LENIENT
      Resolver style for parsing date/time, should precede the pattern string.

      Style to resolve dates and times leniently.

      Using lenient resolution will resolve the values in an appropriate lenient manner. Individual fields will interpret this differently.

      For example, lenient mode allows the month in the ISO calendar system to be outside the range 1 to 12. For example, month 15 is treated as being 3 months after month 12.

    • RESOLVER_LENIENT_NO_BRACKETS
