extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	java.util.FormattableFlags

Class Overview

FomattableFlags are passed to the Formattable.formatTo() method and modify the output format for Formattables. Implementations of Formattable are responsible for interpreting and validating any flags.

Summary

Constants
int	ALTERNATE	Requires the output to use an alternate form.
int	LEFT_JUSTIFY	Left-justifies the output.
int	UPPERCASE	Converts the output to upper case according to the rules of the `locale` given during creation of the `formatter` argument of the `formatTo()` method.

Inherited Methods

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this object.
boolean	equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
void	finalize() Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
int	hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object.
final void	notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
final void	notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
String	toString() Returns a string representation of the object.
final void	wait() Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.
final void	wait(long timeout, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
final void	wait(long timeout) Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.

Constants

public static final int ALTERNATE

Requires the output to use an alternate form. The definition of the form is specified by the Formattable.

This flag corresponds to '#' ('\u0023') in the format specifier.

Constant Value: 4 (0x00000004)

public static final int LEFT_JUSTIFY

Left-justifies the output. Spaces ('\u0020') will be added at the end of the converted value as required to fill the minimum width of the field. If this flag is not set then the output will be right-justified.

This flag corresponds to '-' ('\u002d') in the format specifier.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

public static final int UPPERCASE

Converts the output to upper case according to the rules of the locale given during creation of the formatter argument of the formatTo() method. The output should be equivalent the following invocation of toUpperCase(java.util.Locale)

     out.toUpperCase()

This flag corresponds to '^' ('\u005e') in the format specifier.

Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)
