Enum Constant Summary
Enum ConstantsEnum ConstantDescriptionRequests the field value converted to ALL CAPS.If the field contains a main word with one or more separate prefixes, such as "van den Hul", this requests just the main word ("Hul").Requests an "informal" variant of the field, generally a nickname of some type: if "given" is "James", "given-informal" might be "Jimmy".Requests an initial for the specified field.Requests the field value with the first grapheme of each word converted to titlecase.Requests an initial for the specified field, suitable for use in a monogram (this usually differs from "initial" in that "initial" often adds a period and "monogram" never does).If the field contains a main word with one or more separate prefixes, such as "van den Hul", this requests just the prefixes ("van den"). -

Enum Constant Details
-
INFORMAL
Requests an "informal" variant of the field, generally a nickname of some type: if "given" is "James", "given-informal" might be "Jimmy". Only applied to the "given" field. If the PersonName object doesn't apply this modifier, PersonNameFormatter just uses the unmodified version of "given". -
PREFIX
If the field contains a main word with one or more separate prefixes, such as "van den Hul", this requests just the prefixes ("van den"). Only applied to the "surname" field. If the PersonName object doesn't apply this modifier, PersonNameFormatter assumes there are no prefixes. -
CORE
If the field contains a main word with one or more separate prefixes, such as "van den Hul", this requests just the main word ("Hul"). Only applied to the "surname" field. If the implementing class doesn't apply this modifier, PersonNameFormatter assumes the entire "surname" field is the "core". -
INITIAL
Requests an initial for the specified field. PersonNameFormatter will do this algorithmically, but a PersonName object can apply this modifier itself if it wants different initial-generation logic (or stores the initial separately). -
MONOGRAM
Requests an initial for the specified field, suitable for use in a monogram (this usually differs from "initial" in that "initial" often adds a period and "monogram" never does). PersonNameFormatter will do this algorithmically, but a PersonName object can apply this modifier itself if it wants different monogram-generation logic. -
ALL_CAPS
Requests the field value converted to ALL CAPS. PersonName objects generally won't need to handle this modifier themselves. -
INITIAL_CAP
Requests the field value with the first grapheme of each word converted to titlecase. A PersonName object might handle this modifier itself to capitalize words more selectively.
