## format() [2/4]

virtual UnicodeString& icu::Format::format

Format an object to produce a string.

This is a pure virtual method which subclasses must implement. This method allows polymorphic formatting of Formattable objects. If a subclass of Format receives a Formattable object type it doesn't handle (e.g., if a numeric Formattable is passed to a DateFormat object) then it returns a failing UErrorCode.

Parameters

  obj | The object to format.
  appendTo | Output parameter to receive result. Result is appended to existing contents.
  pos | On input: an alignment field, if desired. On output: the offsets of the alignment field.
  status | Output param filled with success/failure status.

Returns
  Reference to 'appendTo' parameter.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## format() [3/4]

virtual UnicodeString& icu::Format::format

Format an object to produce a string.

Subclasses should override this method. This method allows polymorphic formatting of Formattable objects. If a subclass of Format receives a Formattable object type it doesn't handle (e.g., if a numeric Formattable is passed to a DateFormat object) then it returns a failing UErrorCode.

Parameters

  obj | The object to format.
  appendTo | Output parameter to receive result. Result is appended to existing contents.
  posIter | On return, can be used to iterate over positions of fields generated by this format call.
  status | Output param filled with success/failure status.

Returns
  Reference to 'appendTo' parameter.

Stable:
  ICU 4.4

## format() [4/4]

UnicodeString& icu::Format::format

Formats an object to produce a string.

Parameters

|  | const MeasureUnit & | perUnit,
|  | UnicodeString & | appendTo,
|  | FieldPosition & | pos,
|  | UErrorCode & | status
| ) |  | const

Formats a single measure per unit.

An example of such a formatted string is 3.5 meters per second.

Parameters

  measure | The measure object. In above example, 3.5 meters.
  perUnit | The per unit. In above example, it is `*MeasureUnit::createSecond(status)`.
  appendTo | formatted string appended here.
  pos | the field position.
  status | the error.

Returns
  appendTo reference

Stable:
  ICU 55

## formatMeasures()

UnicodeString& icu::MeasureFormat::formatMeasures | ( | const Measure * | measures,
|  | int32_t | measureCount,
|  | UnicodeString & | appendTo,
|  | FieldPosition & | pos,
|  | UErrorCode & | status
| ) |  | const

Formats measure objects to produce a string.

An example of such a formatted string is 3 meters, 3.5 centimeters. Measure objects appear in the formatted string in the same order they appear in the "measures" array. The NumberFormat of this object is used only to format the amount of the very last measure. The other amounts are formatted with zero decimal places while rounding toward zero.

Parameters

  measures | array of measure objects.
  measureCount | the number of measure objects.
  appendTo | formatted string appended here.
  pos | the field position.
  status | the error.

Always returns the short form currency formatter.

Internal:
  Do not use. This API is for internal use only..

## getDynamicClassID()

virtual UClassID icu::MeasureFormat::getDynamicClassID | ( | void |  | ) | const

override virtual

Returns a unique class ID POLYMORPHICALLY.

Pure virtual override. This method is to implement a simple version of RTTI, since not all C++ compilers support genuine RTTI. Polymorphic operator==() and clone() methods call this method.

Returns
  The class ID for this object. All objects of a given class have the same class ID. Objects of other classes have different class IDs.

Stable:
  ICU 53

Reimplemented from icu::UObject.

Reimplemented in icu::TimeUnitFormat.

    .   Base* polymorphic_pointer = createPolymorphicObject();
    .   if (polymorphic_pointer->getDynamicClassID() ==
    .       erived::getStaticClassID()) ...

Returns
  The class ID for all objects of this class.

## parseObject() [1/3]

virtual void icu::MeasureFormat::parseObject | ( | const UnicodeString & | source,
|  | Formattable & | reslt,
|  | ParsePosition & | pos
| ) |  | const

override virtual

Parse a string to produce an object.

This implementation sets status to U_UNSUPPORTED_ERROR.

Draft:
  This API may be changed in the future versions and was introduced in ICU 53

Implements icu::Format.

Reimplemented in icu::TimeUnitFormat.

## parseObject() [2/3]

virtual void icu::Format::parseObject

Parse a string to produce an object.

This is a pure virtual method which subclasses must implement. This method allows polymorphic parsing of strings into Formattable objects.

Before calling, set parse_pos.index to the offset you want to start parsing at in the source. After calling, parse_pos.index is the end of the text you parsed. If error occurs, index is unchanged.

When parsing, leading whitespace is discarded (with successful parse), while trailing whitespace is left as is.

Example:

Parsing "_12_xy" (where _ represents a space) for a number, with index == 0 will result in the number 12, with parse_pos.index updated to 3 (just before the second space). Parsing a second time will result in a failing UErrorCode since "xy" is not a number, and leave index at 3.

Subclasses will typically supply specific parse methods that return different types of values. Since methods can't overload on return types, these will typically be named "parse", while this polymorphic method will always be called parseObject. Any parse method that does not take a parse_pos should set status to an error value when no text in the required format is at the start position.

Parameters

  source | The string to be parsed into an object.
  result | Formattable to be set to the parse result. If parse fails, return contents are undefined.
  parse_pos | The position to start parsing at. Upon return this param is set to the position after the last character successfully parsed. If the source is not parsed successfully, this param will remain unchanged.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## parseObject() [3/3]

void icu::Format::parseObject

Parses a string to produce an object.

This is a convenience method which calls the pure virtual parseObject() method, and returns a failure UErrorCode if the ParsePosition indicates failure.

Parameters

  source | The string to be parsed into an object.
  result | Formattable to be set to the parse result. If parse fails, return contents are undefined.
  status | Output param to be filled with success/failure result code.

Stable:
  ICU 2.0

## setMeasureFormatLocale()

UBool icu::MeasureFormat::setMeasureFormatLocale | ( | const Locale & | locale,
|  | UErrorCode & | status
| ) |  |

protected

ICU use only.

Allows subclass to change locale. Note that this method also changes the NumberFormat object. Returns true if locale changed; false if no change was made.

Internal:
  Do not use. This API is for internal use only..
