/**
* Format is an abstract base class for formatting locale-sensitive
* information such as dates, messages, and numbers.
*
*
* Format defines the programming interface for formatting
* locale-sensitive objects into Strings (the
* format method) and for parsing Strings back
* into objects (the parseObject method).
*
*
* Generally, a format's parseObject method must be able to parse
* any string formatted by its format method. However, there may
* be exceptional cases where this is not possible. For example, a
* format method might create two adjacent integer numbers with
* no separator in between, and in this case the parseObject could
* not tell which digits belong to which number.
*
*
Subclassing
*
*
* The Java Platform provides three specialized subclasses of Format--
* DateFormat, MessageFormat, and
* NumberFormat--for formatting dates, messages, and numbers,
* respectively.
*
* Concrete subclasses must implement three methods:
*
* -
format(Object obj, StringBuffer toAppendTo, FieldPosition pos)
* -
formatToCharacterIterator(Object obj)
* -
parseObject(String source, ParsePosition pos)
*
* These general methods allow polymorphic parsing and formatting of objects
* and are used, for example, by MessageFormat.
* Subclasses often also provide additional format methods for
* specific input types as well as parse methods for specific
* result types. Any parse method that does not take a
* ParsePosition argument should throw ParseException
* when no text in the required format is at the beginning of the input text.
*
*
* Most subclasses will also implement the following factory methods:
*
* -
*
getInstance for getting a useful format object appropriate
* for the current locale
* -
*
getInstance(Locale) for getting a useful format
* object appropriate for the specified locale
*
* In addition, some subclasses may also implement other
* getXxxxInstance methods for more specialized control. For
* example, the NumberFormat class provides
* getPercentInstance and getCurrencyInstance
* methods for getting specialized number formatters.
*
*
* Subclasses of Format that allow programmers to create objects
* for locales (with getInstance(Locale) for example)
* must also implement the following class method:
*
*
* public static Locale[] getAvailableLocales()
*
*
*
*
* And finally subclasses may define a set of constants to identify the various
* fields in the formatted output. These constants are used to create a FieldPosition
* object which identifies what information is contained in the field and its
* position in the formatted result. These constants should be named
* item_FIELD where item identifies
* the field. For examples of these constants, see ERA_FIELD and its
* friends in {@link DateFormat}.
*
*
Synchronization
*
*
* Formats are generally not synchronized.
* It is recommended to create separate format instances for each thread.
* If multiple threads access a format concurrently, it must be synchronized
* externally.
