The pattern specifies - * how to map keywords to phrases and provides a default phrase. The - * object provided to the format method is a string that's matched - * against the keywords. If there is a match, the corresponding phrase - * is selected; otherwise, the default phrase is used.</p> - * - * <h4>Using <code>SelectFormat</code> for Gender Agreement</h4> - * - * <p>Note: Typically, select formatting is done via <code>MessageFormat</code> - * with a <code>select</code> argument type, - * rather than using a stand-alone <code>SelectFormat</code>.</p> - * - * <p>The main use case for the select format is gender based inflection. - * When names or nouns are inserted into sentences, their gender can affect pronouns, - * verb forms, articles, and adjectives. Special care needs to be - * taken for the case where the gender cannot be determined. - * The impact varies between languages:</p> - * \htmlonly - * <ul> - * <li>English has three genders, and unknown gender is handled as a special - * case. Names use the gender of the named person (if known), nouns referring - * to people use natural gender, and inanimate objects are usually neutral. - * The gender only affects pronouns: "he", "she", "it", "they". - * - * <li>German differs from English in that the gender of nouns is rather - * arbitrary, even for nouns referring to people ("Mädchen", girl, is neutral). - * The gender affects pronouns ("er", "sie", "es"), articles ("der", "die", - * "das"), and adjective forms ("guter Mann", "gute Frau", "gutes Mädchen"). - * - * <li>French has only two genders; as in German the gender of nouns - * is rather arbitrary - for sun and moon, the genders - * are the opposite of those in German. The gender affects - * pronouns ("il", "elle"), articles ("le", "la"), - * adjective forms ("bon", "bonne"), and sometimes - * verb forms ("allé", "allée"). - * - * <li>Polish distinguishes five genders (or noun classes), - * human masculine, animate non-human masculine, inanimate masculine, - * feminine, and neuter. - * </ul> - * \endhtmlonly - * <p>Some other languages have noun classes that are not related to gender, - * but similar in grammatical use. - * Some African languages have around 20 noun classes.</p> - * - * <p><b>Note:</b>For the gender of a <i>person</i> in a given sentence, - * we usually need to distinguish only between female, male and other/unknown.</p> - * - * <p>To enable localizers to create sentence patterns that take their - * language's gender dependencies into consideration, software has to provide - * information about the gender associated with a noun or name to - * <code>MessageFormat</code>. - * Two main cases can be distinguished:</p> - * - * <ul> - * <li>For people, natural gender information should be maintained for each person. - * Keywords like "male", "female", "mixed" (for groups of people) - * and "unknown" could be used. - * - * <li>For nouns, grammatical gender information should be maintained for - * each noun and per language, e.g., in resource bundles. - * The keywords "masculine", "feminine", and "neuter" are commonly used, - * but some languages may require other keywords. - * </ul> - * - * <p>The resulting keyword is provided to <code>MessageFormat</code> as a - * parameter separate from the name or noun it's associated with. For example, - * to generate a message such as "Jean went to Paris", three separate arguments - * would be provided: The name of the person as argument 0, the gender of - * the person as argument 1, and the name of the city as argument 2. - * The sentence pattern for English, where the gender of the person has - * no impact on this simple sentence, would not refer to argument 1 at all:</p> - * - * <pre>{0} went to {2}.</pre> - * - * <p><b>Note:</b> The entire sentence should be included (and partially repeated) - * inside each phrase. Otherwise translators would have to be trained on how to - * move bits of the sentence in and out of the select argument of a message. - * (The examples below do not follow this recommendation!)</p> - * - * <p>The sentence pattern for French, where the gender of the person affects - * the form of the participle, uses a select format based on argument 1:</p> - * - * \htmlonly<pre>{0} est {1, select, female {allée} other {allé}} à {2}.</pre>\endhtmlonly - * - * <p>Patterns can be nested, so that it's possible to handle interactions of - * number and gender where necessary. For example, if the above sentence should - * allow for the names of several people to be inserted, the following sentence - * pattern can be used (with argument 0 the list of people's names, - * argument 1 the number of people, argument 2 their combined gender, and - * argument 3 the city name):</p> - * - * \htmlonly - * <pre>{0} {1, plural, - * one {est {2, select, female {allée} other {allé}}} - * other {sont {2, select, female {allées} other {allés}}} - * }à {3}.</pre> - * \endhtmlonly - * - * <h4>Patterns and Their Interpretation</h4> - * - * <p>The <code>SelectFormat</code> pattern string defines the phrase output - * for each user-defined keyword. - * The pattern is a sequence of (keyword, message) pairs. - * A keyword is a "pattern identifier": [^[[:Pattern_Syntax:][:Pattern_White_Space:]]]+</p> - * - * <p>Each message is a MessageFormat pattern string enclosed in {curly braces}.</p> - * - * <p>You always have to define a phrase for the default keyword - * <code>other</code>; this phrase is returned when the keyword - * provided to - * the <code>format</code> method matches no other keyword. - * If a pattern does not provide a phrase for <code>other</code>, the method - * it's provided to returns the error <code>U_DEFAULT_KEYWORD_MISSING</code>. - * <br> - * Pattern_White_Space between keywords and messages is ignored. - * Pattern_White_Space within a message is preserved and output.</p> - * - * <p><pre>Example: - * \htmlonly - * - * UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR; - * MessageFormat *msgFmt = new MessageFormat(UnicodeString("{0} est {1, select, female {allée} other {allé}} à Paris."), Locale("fr"), status); - * if (U_FAILURE(status)) { - * return; - * } - * FieldPosition ignore(FieldPosition::DONT_CARE); - * UnicodeString result; - * - * char* str1= "Kirti,female"; - * Formattable args1[] = {"Kirti","female"}; - * msgFmt->format(args1, 2, result, ignore, status); - * cout << "Input is " << str1 << " and result is: " << result << endl; - * delete msgFmt; - * - * \endhtmlonly - * </pre> - * </p> - * - * Produces the output:<br> - * \htmlonly - * <code>Kirti est allée à Paris.</code> - * \endhtmlonly - * - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - -class U_I18N_API SelectFormat : public Format { -public: - - /** - * Creates a new <code>SelectFormat</code> for a given pattern string. - * @param pattern the pattern for this <code>SelectFormat</code>. - * errors are returned to status if the pattern is invalid. - * @param status output param set to success/failure code on exit, which - * must not indicate a failure before the function call. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - SelectFormat(const UnicodeString& pattern, UErrorCode& status); - - /** - * copy constructor. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - SelectFormat(const SelectFormat& other); - - /** - * Destructor. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - virtual ~SelectFormat(); - - /** - * Sets the pattern used by this select format. - * for the keyword rules. - * Patterns and their interpretation are specified in the class description. - * - * @param pattern the pattern for this select format - * errors are returned to status if the pattern is invalid. - * @param status output param set to success/failure code on exit, which - * must not indicate a failure before the function call. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - void applyPattern(const UnicodeString& pattern, UErrorCode& status); - - - using Format::format; - - /** - * Selects the phrase for the given keyword - * - * @param keyword The keyword that is used to select an alternative. - * @param appendTo output parameter to receive result. - * result is appended to existing contents. - * @param pos On input: an alignment field, if desired. - * On output: the offsets of the alignment field. - * @param status output param set to success/failure code on exit, which - * must not indicate a failure before the function call. - * @return Reference to 'appendTo' parameter. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - UnicodeString& format(const UnicodeString& keyword, - UnicodeString& appendTo, - FieldPosition& pos, - UErrorCode& status) const; - - /** - * Assignment operator - * - * @param other the SelectFormat object to copy from. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - SelectFormat& operator=(const SelectFormat& other); - - /** - * Return true if another object is semantically equal to this one. - * - * @param other the SelectFormat object to be compared with. - * @return true if other is semantically equal to this. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - virtual UBool operator==(const Format& other) const; - - /** - * Return true if another object is semantically unequal to this one. - * - * @param other the SelectFormat object to be compared with. - * @return true if other is semantically unequal to this. - * @stable ICU 4.4 - */ - virtual UBool operator!=(const Format& other) const; - - /** - * Clones this Format object polymorphically.
