Enum FormatChar

java.lang.Enum<FormatChar>

com.google.common.flogger.backend.FormatChar

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<FormatChar>

public enum FormatChar
extends Enum<FormatChar>

An enum representing the printf-like formatting characters that must be supported by all logging backends. It is important to note that while backends must accept any of these format specifiers, they are not obliged to implement all specified formatting behavior.

The default term formatter takes care of supporting all these options when expressed in their normal '%X' form (including flags, width and precision). Custom messages parsers must convert arguments into one of these forms before passing then through to the backend.

Enum Constant Detail

STRING

public static final FormatChar STRING

Formats the argument in a manner specific to the chosen logging backend. In many cases this will be equivalent to using STRING, but it allows backend implementations to log more structured representations of known types.

This is a non-numeric format with an upper-case variant.

BOOLEAN

public static final FormatChar BOOLEAN

Formats the argument as a boolean.

This is a non-numeric format with an upper-case variant.

CHAR

public static final FormatChar CHAR

Formats a Unicode code-point. This formatting rule can be applied to any character or integral numeric value, providing that Character.isValidCodePoint(int) returns true. Note that if the argument cannot be represented losslessly as an integer, it must be considered invalid.

This is a non-numeric format with an upper-case variant.

DECIMAL

public static final FormatChar DECIMAL

Formats the argument as a decimal integer.

This is a numeric format.

OCTAL

public static final FormatChar OCTAL

Formats the argument as an unsigned octal integer.

This is a numeric format.

'(' is only supported for BigInteger or BigDecimal

HEX

public static final FormatChar HEX

Formats the argument as an unsigned hexadecimal integer.

This is a numeric format with an upper-case variant.

'(' is only supported for BigInteger or BigDecimal

FLOAT

public static final FormatChar FLOAT

Formats the argument as a signed decimal floating value.

This is a numeric format.

EXPONENT

public static final FormatChar EXPONENT

Formats the argument using computerized scientific notation.

This is a numeric format with an upper-case variant.

GENERAL

public static final FormatChar GENERAL

Formats the argument using general scientific notation.

This is a numeric format with an upper-case variant.

EXPONENT_HEX

public static final FormatChar EXPONENT_HEX

Formats the argument using hexadecimal exponential form. This formatting option is primarily useful when debugging issues with the precise bit-wise representation of doubles because no rounding of the value takes place.

This is a numeric format with an upper-case variant.

Method Detail

values

public static FormatChar[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (FormatChar c : FormatChar.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static FormatChar valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

of

public static FormatChar of(char c)

Returns the FormatChar instance associated with the given printf format specifier. If the given character is not an ASCII letter, a runtime exception is thrown.

getChar

public char getChar()

Returns the lower-case printf style formatting character.

Note that as this enumeration is not a subset of any other common formatting syntax, it is not safe to assume that this character can be used to construct a formatting string to pass to other formatting libraries.

getType

public FormatType getType()

Returns the general format type for this character.

getDefaultFormatString

public String getDefaultFormatString()
