  66  * A <code>Locale</code> object represents a specific geographical, political,
  67  * or cultural region. An operation that requires a <code>Locale</code> to perform
  68  * its task is called <em>locale-sensitive</em> and uses the <code>Locale</code>
  69  * to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number
  70  * is a locale-sensitive operation&mdash; the number should be formatted
  71  * according to the customs and conventions of the user's native country,
  72  * region, or culture.
  73  *
  74  * <p> The <code>Locale</code> class implements identifiers
  75  * interchangeable with BCP 47 (IETF BCP 47, "Tags for Identifying
  76  * Languages"), with support for the LDML (UTS#35, "Unicode Locale
  77  * Data Markup Language") BCP 47-compatible extensions for locale data
  78  * exchange.
  79  *
  80  * <p> A <code>Locale</code> object logically consists of the fields
  81  * described below.
  82  *
  83  * <dl>
  84  *   <dt><a name="def_language"/><b>language</b></dt>
  85  *
  86  *   <dd>ISO 639 alpha-2 or alpha-3 language code, or registered
  87  *   language subtags up to 8 alpha letters (for future enhancements).
  88  *   When a language has both an alpha-2 code and an alpha-3 code, the
  89  *   alpha-2 code must be used.  You can find a full list of valid
  90  *   language codes in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for
  91  *   "Type: language").  The language field is case insensitive, but
  92  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to lower case.</dd><br>
  93  *
  94  *   <dd>Well-formed language values have the form
  95  *   <code>[a-zA-Z]{2,8}</code>.  Note that this is not the the full
  96  *   BCP47 language production, since it excludes extlang.  They are
  97  *   not needed since modern three-letter language codes replace
  98  *   them.</dd><br>
  99  *
 100  *   <dd>Example: "en" (English), "ja" (Japanese), "kok" (Konkani)</dd><br>
 101  *
 102  *   <dt><a name="def_script"/><b>script</b></dt>
 103  *
 104  *   <dd>ISO 15924 alpha-4 script code.  You can find a full list of
 105  *   valid script codes in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search
 106  *   for "Type: script").  The script field is case insensitive, but
 107  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to title case (the first
 108  *   letter is upper case and the rest of the letters are lower
 109  *   case).</dd><br>
 110  *
 111  *   <dd>Well-formed script values have the form
 112  *   <code>[a-zA-Z]{4}</code></dd><br>
 113  *

 119  *   You can find a full list of valid country and region codes in the
 120  *   IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for "Type: region").  The
 121  *   country (region) field is case insensitive, but
 122  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to upper case.</dd><br>
 123  *
 124  *   <dd>Well-formed country/region values have
 125  *   the form <code>[a-zA-Z]{2} | [0-9]{3}</code></dd><br>
 126  *
 127  *   <dd>Example: "US" (United States), "FR" (France), "029"
 128  *   (Caribbean)</dd><br>
 129  *
 130  *   <dt><a name="def_variant"/><b>variant</b></dt>
 131  *
 132  *   <dd>Any arbitrary value used to indicate a variation of a
 133  *   <code>Locale</code>.  Where there are two or more variant values
 134  *   each indicating its own semantics, these values should be ordered
 135  *   by importance, with most important first, separated by
 136  *   underscore('_').  The variant field is case sensitive.</dd><br>
 137  *
 138  *   <dd>Note: IETF BCP 47 places syntactic restrictions on variant
 139  *   subtags.  Also BCP 47 subtags are strictly used to indicate
 140  *   additional variations that define a language or its dialects that
 141  *   are not covered by any combinations of language, script and
 142  *   region subtags.  You can find a full list of valid variant codes
 143  *   in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for "Type: variant").
 144  *
 145  *   <p>However, the variant field in <code>Locale</code> has
 146  *   historically been used for any kind of variation, not just
 147  *   language variations.  For example, some supported variants
 148  *   available in Java SE Runtime Environments indicate alternative
 149  *   cultural behaviors such as calendar type or number script.  In
 150  *   BCP 47 this kind of information, which does not identify the
 151  *   language, is supported by extension subtags or private use
 152  *   subtags.</dd><br>
 153  *
 154  *   <dd>Well-formed variant values have the form <code>SUBTAG
 155  *   (('_'|'-') SUBTAG)*</code> where <code>SUBTAG =
 156  *   [0-9][0-9a-zA-Z]{3} | [0-9a-zA-Z]{5,8}</code>. (Note: BCP 47 only
 157  *   uses hyphen ('-') as a delimiter, this is more lenient).</dd><br>
 158  *

 160  *
 161  *   <dt><a name="def_extensions"/><b>extensions</b></dt>
 162  *
 163  *   <dd>A map from single character keys to string values, indicating
 164  *   extensions apart from language identification.  The extensions in
 165  *   <code>Locale</code> implement the semantics and syntax of BCP 47
 166  *   extension subtags and private use subtags. The extensions are
 167  *   case insensitive, but <code>Locale</code> canonicalizes all
 168  *   extension keys and values to lower case. Note that extensions
 169  *   cannot have empty values.</dd><br>
 170  *
 171  *   <dd>Well-formed keys are single characters from the set
 172  *   <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]</code>.  Well-formed values have the form
 173  *   <code>SUBTAG ('-' SUBTAG)*</code> where for the key 'x'
 174  *   <code>SUBTAG = [0-9a-zA-Z]{1,8}</code> and for other keys
 175  *   <code>SUBTAG = [0-9a-zA-Z]{2,8}</code> (that is, 'x' allows
 176  *   single-character subtags).</dd><br>
 177  *
 178  *   <dd>Example: key="u"/value="ca-japanese" (Japanese Calendar),
 179  *   key="x"/value="java-1-7"</dd>
 180  * </dl>
 181  *
 182  * <b>Note:</b> Although BCP 47 requires field values to be registered
 183  * in the IANA Language Subtag Registry, the <code>Locale</code> class
 184  * does not provide any validation features.  The <code>Builder</code>
 185  * only checks if an individual field satisfies the syntactic
 186  * requirement (is well-formed), but does not validate the value
 187  * itself.  See {@link Builder} for details.
 188  *
 189  * <h4><a name="def_locale_extension">Unicode locale/language extension</h4>
 190  *
 191  * <p>UTS#35, "Unicode Locale Data Markup Language" defines optional
 192  * attributes and keywords to override or refine the default behavior
 193  * associated with a locale.  A keyword is represented by a pair of
 194  * key and type.  For example, "nu-thai" indicates that Thai local
 195  * digits (value:"thai") should be used for formatting numbers
 196  * (key:"nu").
 197  *
 198  * <p>The keywords are mapped to a BCP 47 extension value using the
 199  * extension key 'u' ({@link #UNICODE_LOCALE_EXTENSION}).  The above
 200  * example, "nu-thai", becomes the extension "u-nu-thai".code
 201  *
 202  * <p>Thus, when a <code>Locale</code> object contains Unicode locale
 203  * attributes and keywords,
 204  * <code>getExtension(UNICODE_LOCALE_EXTENSION)</code> will return a
 205  * String representing this information, for example, "nu-thai".  The
 206  * <code>Locale</code> class also provides {@link
 207  * #getUnicodeLocaleAttributes}, {@link #getUnicodeLocaleKeys}, and
 208  * {@link #getUnicodeLocaleType} which allow you to access Unicode
 209  * locale attributes and key/type pairs directly.  When represented as
 210  * a string, the Unicode Locale Extension lists attributes
 211  * alphabetically, followed by key/type sequences with keys listed
 212  * alphabetically (the order of subtags comprising a key's type is
 213  * fixed when the type is defined)
 214  *
 215  * <p>A well-formed locale key has the form
 216  * <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]{2}</code>.  A well-formed locale type has the
 217  * form <code>"" | [0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8} ('-' [0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8})*</code> (it
 218  * can be empty, or a series of subtags 3-8 alphanums in length).  A
 219  * well-formed locale attribute has the form
 220  * <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8}</code> (it is a single subtag with the same
 221  * form as a locale type subtag).
 222  *
 223  * <p>The Unicode locale extension specifies optional behavior in
 224  * locale-sensitive services.  Although the LDML specification defines
 225  * various keys and values, actual locale-sensitive service
 226  * implementations in a Java Runtime Environment might not support any
 227  * particular Unicode locale attributes or key/type pairs.
 228  *
 229  * <h4>Creating a Locale</h4>
 230  *
 231  * <p>There are several different ways to create a <code>Locale</code>
 232  * object.
 233  *
 234  * <h5>Builder</h5>
 235  *
 236  * <p>Using {@link Builder} you can construct a <code>Locale</code> object
 237  * that conforms to BCP 47 syntax.
 238  *
 239  * <h5>Constructors</h5>
 240  *
 241  * <p>The <code>Locale</code> class provides three constructors:
 242  * <blockquote>
 243  * <pre>
 244  *     {@link #Locale(String language)}
 245  *     {@link #Locale(String language, String country)}
 246  *     {@link #Locale(String language, String country, String variant)}
 247  * </pre>
 248  * </blockquote>
 249  * These constructors allow you to create a <code>Locale</code> object
 250  * with language, country and variant, but you cannot specify
 251  * script or extensions.
 252  *
 253  * <h5>Factory Methods</h5>
 254  *
 255  * <p>The method {@link #forLanguageTag} creates a <code>Locale</code>
 256  * object for a well-formed BCP 47 language tag.
 257  *
 258  * <h5>Locale Constants</h5>
 259  *
 260  * <p>The <code>Locale</code> class provides a number of convenient constants
 261  * that you can use to create <code>Locale</code> objects for commonly used
 262  * locales. For example, the following creates a <code>Locale</code> object
 263  * for the United States:
 264  * <blockquote>
 265  * <pre>
 266  *     Locale.US
 267  * </pre>
 268  * </blockquote>
 269  *
 270  * <h4>Use of Locale</h4>
 271  *
 272  * <p>Once you've created a <code>Locale</code> you can query it for information
 273  * about itself. Use <code>getCountry</code> to get the country (or region)
 274  * code and <code>getLanguage</code> to get the language code.
 275  * You can use <code>getDisplayCountry</code> to get the
 276  * name of the country suitable for displaying to the user. Similarly,
 277  * you can use <code>getDisplayLanguage</code> to get the name of
 278  * the language suitable for displaying to the user. Interestingly,
 279  * the <code>getDisplayXXX</code> methods are themselves locale-sensitive
 280  * and have two versions: one that uses the default locale and one
 281  * that uses the locale specified as an argument.
 282  *
 283  * <p>The Java Platform provides a number of classes that perform locale-sensitive
 284  * operations. For example, the <code>NumberFormat</code> class formats
 285  * numbers, currency, and percentages in a locale-sensitive manner. Classes
 286  * such as <code>NumberFormat</code> have several convenience methods
 287  * for creating a default object of that type. For example, the
 288  * <code>NumberFormat</code> class provides these three convenience methods
 289  * for creating a default <code>NumberFormat</code> object:
 290  * <blockquote>
 291  * <pre>
 292  *     NumberFormat.getInstance()
 293  *     NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance()
 294  *     NumberFormat.getPercentInstance()
 295  * </pre>
 296  * </blockquote>
 297  * Each of these methods has two variants; one with an explicit locale
 298  * and one without; the latter uses the default locale:
 299  * <blockquote>
 300  * <pre>
 301  *     NumberFormat.getInstance(myLocale)
 302  *     NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(myLocale)
 303  *     NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(myLocale)
 304  * </pre>
 305  * </blockquote>
 306  * A <code>Locale</code> is the mechanism for identifying the kind of object
 307  * (<code>NumberFormat</code>) that you would like to get. The locale is
 308  * <STRONG>just</STRONG> a mechanism for identifying objects,
 309  * <STRONG>not</STRONG> a container for the objects themselves.
 310  *
 311  * <h4>Compatibility</h4>
 312  *
 313  * <p>In order to maintain compatibility with existing usage, Locale's
 314  * constructors retain their behavior prior to the Java Runtime
 315  * Environment version 1.7.  The same is largely true for the
 316  * <code>toString</code> method. Thus Locale objects can continue to
 317  * be used as they were. In particular, clients who parse the output
 318  * of toString into language, country, and variant fields can continue
 319  * to do so (although this is strongly discouraged), although the
 320  * variant field will have additional information in it if script or
 321  * extensions are present.
 322  *
 323  * <p>In addition, BCP 47 imposes syntax restrictions that are not
 324  * imposed by Locale's constructors. This means that conversions
 325  * between some Locales and BCP 47 language tags cannot be made without
 326  * losing information. Thus <code>toLanguageTag</code> cannot
 327  * represent the state of locales whose language, country, or variant
 328  * do not conform to BCP 47.
 329  *
 330  * <p>Because of these issues, it is recommended that clients migrate
 331  * away from constructing non-conforming locales and use the
 332  * <code>forLanguageTag</code> and <code>Locale.Builder</code> APIs instead.
 333  * Clients desiring a string representation of the complete locale can
 334  * then always rely on <code>toLanguageTag</code> for this purpose.
 335  *
 336  * <h5><a name="special_cases_constructor"/>Special cases</h5>
 337  *
 338  * <p>For compatibility reasons, two
 339  * non-conforming locales are treated as special cases.  These are
 340  * <b><tt>ja_JP_JP</tt></b> and <b><tt>th_TH_TH</tt></b>. These are ill-formed
 341  * in BCP 47 since the variants are too short. To ease migration to BCP 47,
 342  * these are treated specially during construction.  These two cases (and only
 343  * these) cause a constructor to generate an extension, all other values behave
 344  * exactly as they did prior to Java 7.
 345  *
 346  * <p>Java has used <tt>ja_JP_JP</tt> to represent Japanese as used in
 347  * Japan together with the Japanese Imperial calendar. This is now
 348  * representable using a Unicode locale extension, by specifying the
 349  * Unicode locale key <tt>ca</tt> (for "calendar") and type
 350  * <tt>japanese</tt>. When the Locale constructor is called with the
 351  * arguments "ja", "JP", "JP", the extension "u-ca-japanese" is
 352  * automatically added.
 353  *
 354  * <p>Java has used <tt>th_TH_TH</tt> to represent Thai as used in
 355  * Thailand together with Thai digits. This is also now representable using
 356  * a Unicode locale extension, by specifying the Unicode locale key
 357  * <tt>nu</tt> (for "number") and value <tt>thai</tt>. When the Locale
 358  * constructor is called with the arguments "th", "TH", "TH", the
 359  * extension "u-nu-thai" is automatically added.
 360  *
 361  * <h5>Serialization</h5>
 362  *
 363  * <p>During serialization, writeObject writes all fields to the output
 364  * stream, including extensions.
 365  *
 366  * <p>During deserialization, readResolve adds extensions as described
 367  * in <a href="#special_cases_constructor">Special Cases</a>, only
 368  * for the two cases th_TH_TH and ja_JP_JP.
 369  *
 370  * <h5>Legacy language codes</h5>
 371  *
 372  * <p>Locale's constructor has always converted three language codes to
 373  * their earlier, obsoleted forms: <tt>he</tt> maps to <tt>iw</tt>,
 374  * <tt>yi</tt> maps to <tt>ji</tt>, and <tt>id</tt> maps to
 375  * <tt>in</tt>.  This continues to be the case, in order to not break
 376  * backwards compatibility.
 377  *
 378  * <p>The APIs added in 1.7 map between the old and new language codes,
 379  * maintaining the old codes internal to Locale (so that
 380  * <code>getLanguage</code> and <code>toString</code> reflect the old
 381  * code), but using the new codes in the BCP 47 language tag APIs (so
 382  * that <code>toLanguageTag</code> reflects the new one). This
 383  * preserves the equivalence between Locales no matter which code or
 384  * API is used to construct them. Java's default resource bundle
 385  * lookup mechanism also implements this mapping, so that resources
 386  * can be named using either convention, see {@link ResourceBundle.Control}.
 387  *
 388  * <h5>Three-letter language/country(region) codes</h5>
 389  *
 390  * <p>The Locale constructors have always specified that the language
 391  * and the country param be two characters in length, although in
 392  * practice they have accepted any length.  The specification has now
 393  * been relaxed to allow language codes of two to eight characters and
 394  * country (region) codes of two to three characters, and in
 395  * particular, three-letter language codes and three-digit region
 396  * codes as specified in the IANA Language Subtag Registry.  For
 397  * compatibility, the implementation still does not impose a length
 398  * constraint.

1269      * "lvariant", followed by the sub-segments in order, separated by
1270      * hyphen. For example, "x-lvariant-WIN",
1271      * "Oracle-x-lvariant-JDK-Standard-Edition".

1277      * emitted as a private use subtag as above (even if the remainder
1278      * turns out to be well-formed).  For example,
1279      * "Solaris_isjustthecoolestthing" is emitted as
