public abstract class TextSyntax extends Object implements Serializable, Cloneable
Class TextSyntax is an abstract base class providing the common implementation of all attributes whose value is a string. The text attribute includes a locale to indicate the natural language. Thus, a text attribute always represents a localized string. Once constructed, a text attribute's value is immutable.
protected TextSyntax(String value, Locale locale)
Constructs a TextAttribute with the specified string and locale.
value
- Text string.locale
- Natural language of the text string. null is interpreted to mean the default locale for as returned by Locale.getDefault()
NullPointerException
- (unchecked exception) Thrown if value
is null.public String getValue()
Returns this text attribute's text string.
public Locale getLocale()
Returns this text attribute's text string's natural language (locale).
public int hashCode()
Returns a hashcode for this text attribute.
hashCode
in class Object
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
, System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
public boolean equals(Object object)
Returns whether this text attribute is equivalent to the passed in object. To be equivalent, all of the following conditions must be true:
object
is not null. object
is an instance of class TextSyntax. object
's underlying string are equal. object
's locale are equal. equals
in class Object
object
- Object to compare to.object
is equivalent to this text attribute, false otherwise.Object.hashCode()
, HashMap
public String toString()
Returns a String identifying this text attribute. The String is the attribute's underlying text string.
