Enum UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod>

com.ibm.icu.text.UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod>

Enclosing class:

UnicodeSetSpanner

public static enum UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod
extends Enum<UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod>

Options for replaceFrom and countIn to control how to treat each matched span. It is similar to whether one is replacing [abc] by x, or [abc]* by x.

Status:

Stable ICU 54.

Enum Constant Detail

WHOLE_SPAN

public static final UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod WHOLE_SPAN

Collapse spans. That is, modify/count the entire matching span as a single item, instead of separate set elements.

Status:

Stable ICU 54.

MIN_ELEMENTS

public static final UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod MIN_ELEMENTS

Use the smallest number of elements in the spanned range for counting and modification, based on the UnicodeSet.SpanCondition. If the set has no strings, this will be the same as the number of spanned code points.

For example, in the string "abab" with SpanCondition.SIMPLE:

• spanning with [ab] will count four MIN_ELEMENTS.
• spanning with [{ab}] will count two MIN_ELEMENTS.
• spanning with [ab{ab}] will also count two MIN_ELEMENTS.

Status:

Stable ICU 54.

Method Detail

values

public static UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod c : UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static UnicodeSetSpanner.CountMethod valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
