An abstract class for service providers that provide localized names for the Locale class.
Since: 1.6
/** * An abstract class for service providers that * provide localized names for the * {@link java.util.Locale Locale} class. * * @since 1.6 */
public abstract class LocaleNameProvider extends LocaleServiceProvider {
Sole constructor. (For invocation by subclass constructors, typically implicit.)
/** * Sole constructor. (For invocation by subclass constructors, typically * implicit.) */
protected LocaleNameProvider() { }
Returns a localized name for the given IETF BCP47 language code and the given locale that is appropriate for display to the user. For example, if languageCode is "fr" and locale is en_US, getDisplayLanguage() will return "French"; if languageCode is "en" and locale is fr_FR, getDisplayLanguage() will return "anglais". If the name returned cannot be localized according to locale, (say, the provider does not have a Japanese name for Croatian), this method returns null.
Params:
  • languageCode – the language code string in the form of two to eight lower-case letters between 'a' (U+0061) and 'z' (U+007A)
  • locale – the desired locale
Throws:
See Also:
Returns:the name of the given language code for the specified locale, or null if it's not available.

public abstract String getDisplayLanguage(String languageCode, Locale locale);
Returns a localized name for the given IETF BCP47 script code and the given locale that is appropriate for display to the user. For example, if scriptCode is "Latn" and locale is en_US, getDisplayScript() will return "Latin"; if scriptCode is "Cyrl" and locale is fr_FR, getDisplayScript() will return "cyrillique". If the name returned cannot be localized according to locale, (say, the provider does not have a Japanese name for Cyrillic), this method returns null. The default implementation returns null.
Params:
  • scriptCode – the four letter script code string in the form of title-case letters (the first letter is upper-case character between 'A' (U+0041) and 'Z' (U+005A) followed by three lower-case character between 'a' (U+0061) and 'z' (U+007A)).
  • locale – the desired locale
Throws:

Returns a localized name for the given IETF BCP47 region code (either ISO 3166 country code or UN M.49 area codes) and the given locale that is appropriate for display to the user. For example, if countryCode is "FR" and locale is en_US, getDisplayCountry() will return "France"; if countryCode is "US" and locale is fr_FR, getDisplayCountry() will return "Etats-Unis".
