Field Summary
public static final Attribute	LANGUAGE	Attribute key for the language of some text. Values are instances of Locale . Also see: java.util.Locale
public static final Attribute	READING	Attribute key for the reading of some text. In languages where the written form and the pronunciation of a word are only loosely related (such as Japanese), it is often necessary to store the reading (pronunciation) along with the written form. Values are instances of Annotation holding instances of String . Also see: Annotation java.lang.String
public static final Attribute	INPUT_METHOD_SEGMENT	Attribute key for input method segments. Input methods often break up text into segments, which usually correspond to words. Values are instances of Annotation holding a {@code null} reference. Also see: Annotation

Field Summary

public static final Attribute

LANGUAGE

Attribute key for the language of some text.

Values are instances of Locale .

java.util.Locale

public static final Attribute

READING

Attribute key for the reading of some text. In languages where the written form and the pronunciation of a word are only loosely related (such as Japanese), it is often necessary to store the reading (pronunciation) along with the written form.

Values are instances of Annotation holding instances of String .

java.lang.String

public static final Attribute

INPUT_METHOD_SEGMENT

Attribute key for input method segments. Input methods often break up text into segments, which usually correspond to words.

Values are instances of Annotation holding a {@code null} reference.

Constructor:
protected Attribute(String name) { this.name = name; if (this.getClass() == Attribute.class) { instanceMap.put(name, this); } } Constructs an {@code Attribute} with the given name.

Constructor:

 protected Attribute(String name) {
            this.name = name;
            if (this.getClass() == Attribute.class) {
                instanceMap.put(name, this);
            }
}

Constructs an {@code Attribute} with the given name.

Method from java.text.AttributedCharacterIterator$Attribute Summary:
equals, getName, hashCode, readResolve, toString

Methods from java.lang.Object:
clone, equals, finalize, getClass, hashCode, notify, notifyAll, toString, wait, wait, wait

Method from java.text.AttributedCharacterIterator$Attribute Detail:
public final boolean equals(Object obj) { return super.equals(obj); } Compares two objects for equality. This version only returns true for `x.equals(y)` if `x` and `y` refer to the same object, and guarantees this for all subclasses.
protected String getName() { return name; } Returns the name of the attribute.
public final int hashCode() { return super.hashCode(); } Returns a hash code value for the object. This version is identical to the one in {@code Object}, but is also final.
protected Object readResolve() throws InvalidObjectException { if (this.getClass() != Attribute.class) { throw new InvalidObjectException("subclass didn't correctly implement readResolve"); } Attribute instance = (Attribute) instanceMap.get(getName()); if (instance != null) { return instance; } else { throw new InvalidObjectException("unknown attribute name"); } } Resolves instances being deserialized to the predefined constants.
public String toString() { return getClass().getName() + "(" + name + ")"; } Returns a string representation of the object. This version returns the concatenation of class name, {@code "("}, a name identifying the attribute and {@code ")"}.

x.equals(y)

x

y

 protected String getName() {
            return name;
}

Returns the name of the attribute.

 public final int hashCode() {
            return super.hashCode();
}

Returns a hash code value for the object. This version is identical to the one in {@code Object}, but is also final.

 protected Object readResolve() throws InvalidObjectException {
            if (this.getClass() != Attribute.class) {
                throw new InvalidObjectException("subclass didn't correctly implement readResolve");
            }
            Attribute instance = (Attribute) instanceMap.get(getName());
            if (instance != null) {
                return instance;
            } else {
                throw new InvalidObjectException("unknown attribute name");
            }
}

Resolves instances being deserialized to the predefined constants.

 public String toString() {
            return getClass().getName() + "(" + name + ")";
}

Returns a string representation of the object. This version returns the concatenation of class name, {@code "("}, a name identifying the attribute and {@code ")"}.
