FieldPosition setEndIndex() method in Java with Example

The setEndIndex() method of java.text.FieldPosition class is used to set the index of the character which is preceded by the last character in FieldPosition object. 

Syntax:

public void setEndIndex(int ei)

Parameter: This method takes the integer value index for the new index of the character which is preceded by the last character in FieldPosition object. 

Return Value: This method has nothing to return. 

Below are the examples to illustrate the setEndIndex() method: 

Example 1:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// setEndIndex() method

import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {

            // Creating and initializing
            // new FieldPosition Object
            FieldPosition pos
                = new FieldPosition(
                    MessageFormat.Field.ARGUMENT);

            // setting end index
            pos.setEndIndex(10);

            // getting end index of FieldPosition Object
            // using getEndIndex() method
            int i = pos.getEndIndex();

            // display result
            System.out.println("end index :- " + i);
        }

        catch (ClassCastException e) {

            System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

end index :- 10

Example 2:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// setEndIndex() method

import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {

            // Creating and initializing
            // new FieldPosition Object
            FieldPosition pos
                = new FieldPosition(
                    DateFormat.Field.AM_PM);

            // setting end index
            pos.setEndIndex(5);

            // getting end index of FieldPosition Object
            // using getEndIndex() method
            int i = pos.getEndIndex();

            // display result
            System.out.println("end index :- " + i);
        }

        catch (ClassCastException e) {

            System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

end index :- 5
