Method Detail

setTensUnitsSeparatorCardinal

public void setTensUnitsSeparatorCardinal(String separator)

Set the separator to be used between tens and units for cardinal numbers. This allows customization of the output, for example "thirty six", "thirty-six", or "thirtysix". Default is a single space.

Currently the only way of calling this is from a subclass, which can be nominated by setting a LocalizerFactory on the Configuration

Parameters:

separator - the separator to be used between tens and units when cardinal numbers are written as words.

setTensUnitsSeparatorOrdinal

public void setTensUnitsSeparatorOrdinal(String separator)

Set the separator to be used between tens and units for ordinal numbers. This allows customization of the output, for example "thirty sixth", "thirty-sixth", or "thirtysixth". Default is a hyphen.

Currently the only way of calling this is from a subclass, which can be nominated by setting a LocalizerFactory on the Configuration

Parameters:

separator - the separator to be used between tens and units when ordinal numbers are written as words.

ordinalSuffix

protected String ordinalSuffix(String ordinalParam,
                               long number)

Construct the ordinal suffix for a number, for example "st", "nd", "rd"

Overrides:

ordinalSuffix in class AbstractNumberer

Parameters:

ordinalParam - the value of the ordinal attribute (used in non-English language implementations)

number - the number being formatted

Returns:

the ordinal suffix to be appended to the formatted number

toWords

public String toWords(long number)

Show the number as words in title case. (We choose title case because the result can then be converted algorithmically to lower case or upper case).

Specified by:

toWords in class AbstractNumberer

Parameters:

number - the number to be formatted

Returns:

the number formatted as English words

toOrdinalWords

public String toOrdinalWords(String ordinalParam,
                             long number,
                             int wordCase)

Show an ordinal number as English words in a requested case (for example, Twentyfirst)

Specified by:

toOrdinalWords in class AbstractNumberer

Parameters:

ordinalParam - the value of the "ordinal" attribute as supplied by the user

number - the number to be formatted

wordCase - the required case for example AbstractNumberer.UPPER_CASE, AbstractNumberer.LOWER_CASE, AbstractNumberer.TITLE_CASE

Returns:

the formatted number

monthName

                        int minWidth,
