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