Locale
This enum provides constants to select a filtering mode for locale
matching. Refer to RFC 4647
Matching of Language Tags for details.
As an example, think of two Language Priority Lists each of which includes only one language range and a set of following language tags:
de (German) de-DE (German, Germany) de-Deva (German, in Devanagari script) de-Deva-DE (German, in Devanagari script, Germany) de-DE-1996 (German, Germany, orthography of 1996) de-Latn-DE (German, in Latin script, Germany) de-Latn-DE-1996 (German, in Latin script, Germany, orthography of 1996)The filtering method will behave as follows:
Filtering Mode | Language Priority List: "de-DE" |
Language Priority List: "de-*-DE" |
---|---|---|
AUTOSELECT_FILTERING
|
Performs basic filtering and returns "de-DE" and
"de-DE-1996" .
|
Performs extended filtering and returns "de-DE" ,
"de-Deva-DE" , "de-DE-1996" , "de-Latn-DE" , and
"de-Latn-DE-1996" .
|
EXTENDED_FILTERING
|
Performs extended filtering and returns "de-DE" ,
"de-Deva-DE" , "de-DE-1996" , "de-Latn-DE" , and
"de-Latn-DE-1996" .
|
Same as above. |
IGNORE_EXTENDED_RANGES
|
Performs basic filtering and returns "de-DE" and
"de-DE-1996" .
|
Performs basic filtering and returns null because
nothing matches.
|
MAP_EXTENDED_RANGES
|
Same as above. |
Performs basic filtering and returns "de-DE" and
"de-DE-1996" because "de-*-DE" is mapped to
"de-DE" .
|
REJECT_EXTENDED_RANGES
|
Same as above. |
Throws IllegalArgumentException because "de-*-DE" is
not a valid basic language range.

Enum Constant Details
-
AUTOSELECT_FILTERING
Specifies automatic filtering mode based on the given Language Priority List consisting of language ranges. If all of the ranges are basic, basic filtering is selected. Otherwise, extended filtering is selected. -
EXTENDED_FILTERING
Specifies extended filtering. -
IGNORE_EXTENDED_RANGES
Specifies basic filtering: Note that any extended language ranges included in the given Language Priority List are ignored. -
MAP_EXTENDED_RANGES
Specifies basic filtering: If any extended language ranges are included in the given Language Priority List, they are mapped to the basic language range. Specifically, a language range starting with a subtag"*"
is treated as a language range"*"
. For example,"*-US"
is treated as"*"
. If"*"
is not the first subtag,"*"
and extra"-"
are removed. For example,"ja-*-JP"
is mapped to"ja-JP"
. -
REJECT_EXTENDED_RANGES
Specifies basic filtering: If any extended language ranges are included in the given Language Priority List, the list is rejected and the filtering method throwsIllegalArgumentException
