Enum NumberFormatter.SignDisplay

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<NumberFormatter.SignDisplay>
    Enclosing class:
    NumberFormatter

    public static enum NumberFormatter.SignDisplay
    extends Enum<NumberFormatter.SignDisplay>
    An enum declaring how to denote positive and negative numbers. Example outputs when formatting 123, 0, and -123 in en-US:
    • AUTO: "123", "0", and "-123"
    • ALWAYS: "+123", "+0", and "-123"
    • NEVER: "123", "0", and "123"
    • ACCOUNTING: "$123", "$0", and "($123)"
    • ACCOUNTING_ALWAYS: "+$123", "+$0", and "($123)"
    • EXCEPT_ZERO: "+123", "0", and "-123"
    • ACCOUNTING_EXCEPT_ZERO: "+$123", "$0", and "($123)"

    The exact format, including the position and the code point of the sign, differ by locale.

      • ACCOUNTING

        public static final NumberFormatter.SignDisplay ACCOUNTING
        Use the locale-dependent accounting format on negative numbers, and do not show the sign on positive numbers.

        The accounting format is defined in CLDR and varies by locale; in many Western locales, the format is a pair of parentheses around the number.

        Note: Since CLDR defines the accounting format in the monetary context only, this option falls back to the AUTO sign display strategy when formatting without a currency unit. This limitation may be lifted in the future.

      • ACCOUNTING_ALWAYS

        public static final NumberFormatter.SignDisplay ACCOUNTING_ALWAYS
        Use the locale-dependent accounting format on negative numbers, and show the plus sign on positive numbers, including zero. For more information on the accounting format, see the ACCOUNTING sign display strategy. To hide the sign on zero, see ACCOUNTING_EXCEPT_ZERO.

      • ACCOUNTING_EXCEPT_ZERO

        public static final NumberFormatter.SignDisplay ACCOUNTING_EXCEPT_ZERO
        Use the locale-dependent accounting format on negative numbers, and show the plus sign on positive numbers. Do not show a sign on zero. For more information on the accounting format, see the ACCOUNTING sign display strategy.

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static NumberFormatter.SignDisplay[] 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 (NumberFormatter.SignDisplay c : NumberFormatter.SignDisplay.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static NumberFormatter.SignDisplay 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
