Method Detail

get

public RbnfLenientScanner get(ULocale locale,
                              String extras)

Deprecated. This API is ICU internal only.

Returns a collation-based scanner. Only primary differences are treated as significant. This means that case differences, accent differences, alternate spellings of the same letter (e.g., ae and a-umlaut in German), ignorable characters, etc. are ignored in matching the text. In many cases, numerals will be accepted in place of words or phrases as well. For example, all of the following will correctly parse as 255 in English in lenient-parse mode:
"two hundred fifty-five"
"two hundred fifty five"
"TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-FIVE"
"twohundredfiftyfive"
"2 hundred fifty-5" The Collator used is determined by the locale that was passed to this object on construction. The description passed to this object on construction may supply additional collation rules that are appended to the end of the default collator for the locale, enabling additional equivalences (such as adding more ignorable characters or permitting spelled-out version of symbols; see the demo program for examples). It's important to emphasize that even strict parsing is relatively lenient: it will accept some text that it won't produce as output. In English, for example, it will correctly parse "two hundred zero" and "fifteen hundred".

Specified by:
