public class ProperFractionFormat
extends FractionFormat

Formats a Fraction number in proper format. The number format for each of the whole number, numerator and, denominator can be configured.

Minus signs are only allowed in the whole number part - i.e., "-3 1/2" is legitimate and denotes -7/2, but "-3 -1/2" is invalid and will result in a ParseException.

Constructor Detail

ProperFractionFormat

public ProperFractionFormat()

Create a proper formatting instance with the default number format for the whole, numerator, and denominator.

ProperFractionFormat

public ProperFractionFormat(java.text.NumberFormat format)

Create a proper formatting instance with a custom number format for the whole, numerator, and denominator.

Parameters:

format - the custom format for the whole, numerator, and denominator.

ProperFractionFormat

public ProperFractionFormat(java.text.NumberFormat wholeFormat,
                            java.text.NumberFormat numeratorFormat,
                            java.text.NumberFormat denominatorFormat)

Create a proper formatting instance with a custom number format for each of the whole, numerator, and denominator.

Parameters:

wholeFormat - the custom format for the whole.

numeratorFormat - the custom format for the numerator.

denominatorFormat - the custom format for the denominator.

Method Detail

format

public java.lang.StringBuffer format(Fraction fraction,
                                     java.lang.StringBuffer toAppendTo,
                                     java.text.FieldPosition pos)

Formats a Fraction object to produce a string. The fraction is output in proper format.

Overrides:

format in class FractionFormat

Parameters:

fraction - the object to format.

toAppendTo - where the text is to be appended

pos - On input: an alignment field, if desired. On output: the offsets of the alignment field

Returns:

the value passed in as toAppendTo.

getWholeFormat

public java.text.NumberFormat getWholeFormat()

Access the whole format.

Returns:

the whole format.

parse

public Fraction parse(java.lang.String source,
                      java.text.ParsePosition pos)

Parses a string to produce a Fraction object. This method expects the string to be formatted as a proper fraction.

Minus signs are only allowed in the whole number part - i.e., "-3 1/2" is legitimate and denotes -7/2, but "-3 -1/2" is invalid and will result in a ParseException.

Overrides:

parse in class FractionFormat

Parameters:

source - the string to parse

pos - input/ouput parsing parameter.

Returns:

the parsed Fraction object.

setWholeFormat

public void setWholeFormat(java.text.NumberFormat format)

Modify the whole format.

Parameters:

format - The new whole format value.

Throws:

NullArgumentException - if format is null.
