Package com.ibm.icu.text
Enum MessagePattern.ApostropheMode
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
,Comparable<MessagePattern.ApostropheMode>
,java.lang.constant.Constable
- Enclosing class:
MessagePattern
Mode for when an apostrophe starts quoted literal text for MessageFormat output.
The default is DOUBLE_OPTIONAL unless overridden via ICUConfig
(/com/ibm/icu/ICUConfig.properties).
A pair of adjacent apostrophes always results in a single apostrophe in the output, even when the pair is between two single, text-quoting apostrophes.
The following table shows examples of desired MessageFormat.format() output with the pattern strings that yield that output.
Desired output | DOUBLE_OPTIONAL | DOUBLE_REQUIRED |
---|---|---|
I see {many} | I see '{many}' | (same) |
I said {'Wow!'} | I said '{''Wow!''}' | (same) |
I don't know | I don't know OR I don''t know |
I don''t know |

DOUBLE_OPTIONAL
A literal apostrophe is represented by either a single or a double apostrophe pattern character. Within a MessageFormat pattern, a single apostrophe only starts quoted literal text if it immediately precedes a curly brace {}, or a pipe symbol | if inside a choice format, or a pound symbol # if inside a plural format.This is the default behavior starting with ICU 4.8.
-
DOUBLE_REQUIRED
A literal apostrophe must be represented by a double apostrophe pattern character. A single apostrophe always starts quoted literal text.This is the behavior of ICU 4.6 and earlier, and of
MessageFormat
.
