The getField() method of java.text.FieldPosition class is used to retrieve the field identifier of this field position object.
Syntax:
public int getField()
Parameter: This method does not accepts any argument as parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the field identifier of this field position object.
Below are the examples to illustrate the getField() method:
Example 1:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// getField() methodimport java.text.*;import java.util.*;import java.io.*;public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // Creating and initializing // new FieldPosition Object FieldPosition pos = new FieldPosition( MessageFormat.Field.ARGUMENT); // getting Field attribute // of FieldPosition object // using getField() method int i = pos.getField(); // display result System.out.println( "field attribute :- " + Integer.toString(i)); } catch (ClassCastException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e); } }} |
Output:
field attribute :- -1
Example 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// getField() methodimport java.text.*;import java.util.*;import java.io.*;public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // Creating and initializing // new FieldPosition Object FieldPosition pos = new FieldPosition( DateFormat.Field.AM_PM); // getting Field attribute // of FieldPosition object // using getField() method int i = pos.getField(); // display result System.out.println( "field attribute :- " + Integer.toString(i)); } catch (ClassCastException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e); } }} |
Output:
field attribute :- -1
