The toString() method of java.text.FieldPosition class is used to represent the field position object in the form of string.
Syntax:
public String toString()
Parameter: This method does not accepts any argument as parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the string representation of this FieldPosition object.
Below are the examples to illustrate the toString() method:
Example 1:
// Java program to demonstrate // toString() 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);
// getting the String representation
// of this FieldPosition Object
// using toString() method
String str = pos.toString();
// display result
System.out.println( "FieldPosition :- " + str);
}
catch (ClassCastException e) {
System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e);
}
}
} |
Output:
FieldPosition :- java.text.FieldPosition[field=-1, attribute=java.text.MessageFormat$Field(message argument field), beginIndex=0, endIndex=0]
Example 2:
// Java program to demonstrate // toString() method import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] argv)
{
try {
// Creating and initializing
// new FieldPosition Object
FieldPosition pos
= new FieldPosition(
DateFormat.Field.AM_PM);
// getting the String representation
// of this FieldPosition Object
// using toString() method
String str = pos.toString();
// display result
System.out.println( "FieldPosition :- " + str);
}
catch (ClassCastException e) {
System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e);
}
}
} |
Output:
FieldPosition :- java.text.FieldPosition[field=-1, attribute=java.text.DateFormat$Field(am pm), beginIndex=0, endIndex=0]
