Class SimplePersonName

java.lang.Object

com.ibm.icu.text.SimplePersonName

All Implemented Interfaces:

PersonName

public class SimplePersonName
extends Object
implements PersonName

A concrete implementation of PersonNameFormatter.PersonName that simply stores the field values in a Map. A caller can store both raw field values (such as "given") and modified field values (such as "given-informal") in a SimplePersonName. But beyond storing and returning modified field values provided to it by the caller, SimplePersonName relies on the PersonNameFormatter's default handling of field modifiers.

Status:

Stable ICU 73.

Method Detail

builder

public static SimplePersonName.Builder builder()

Returns a Builder object that can be used to construct a new SimplePersonName object.

Returns:

A Builder object that can be used to construct a new SimplePersonName object.

Status:

Stable ICU 73.

getNameLocale

public Locale getNameLocale()

Returns the locale of the name-- that is, the language or country of origin for the person being named.

Specified by:

getNameLocale in interface PersonName

Returns:

The name's locale, or null if it's unknown.

Status:

Stable ICU 73.

getPreferredOrder

public PersonName.PreferredOrder getPreferredOrder()

Returns the preferred field order for the name. This will be DEFAULT, unless the caller sets it to something else using the builder.

Specified by:

getPreferredOrder in interface PersonName

Returns:

The name's preferred field order.

Status:

Stable ICU 73.

getFieldValue

public String getFieldValue(PersonName.NameField nameField,
                            Set<PersonName.FieldModifier> modifiers)

Returns one field of the name, possibly in a modified form. This class can store modified versions of fields, provided at construction time, and this function will return them. Otherwise, it ignores modifiers and relies on PersonNameFormat's default modifier handling.

Specified by:

getFieldValue in interface PersonName

Parameters:

nameField - The identifier of the requested field.

modifiers - An IN/OUT parameter that specifies modifiers to apply to the basic field value. On return, this list will contain any modifiers that this object didn't handle. This class will always return this set unmodified, unless a modified version of the requested field was provided at construction time.

Returns:

The value of the requested field, optionally modified by some or all of the requested modifiers, or null if the requested field isn't present in the name.

Status:

Stable ICU 73.
