ArgType
class ArgType
Argument type constants. Returned by Part.getArgType() for ARG_START and ARG_LIMIT parts. Messages nested inside an argument are each delimited by MSG_START and MSG_LIMIT, with a nesting level one greater than the surrounding message.
Summary
| Enum values |
|
The argument is a ChoiceFormat with one or more ((ARG_INT | ARG_DOUBLE), ARG_SELECTOR, message) tuples.
|
|
The argument has no specified type.
|
|
The argument is a cardinal-number PluralFormat with an optional ARG_INT or ARG_DOUBLE offset (e.g., offset:1) and one or more (ARG_SELECTOR [explicit-value] message) tuples.
|
|
The argument is a SelectFormat with one or more (ARG_SELECTOR, message) pairs.
|
|
The argument is an ordinal-number PluralFormat with the same style parts sequence and semantics as ArgType.PLURAL.
|
|
The argument has a "simple" type which is provided by the ARG_TYPE part.

Enum values
CHOICE
enum val CHOICE : MessagePattern.ArgType
The argument is a ChoiceFormat with one or more ((ARG_INT | ARG_DOUBLE), ARG_SELECTOR, message) tuples.
PLURAL
enum val PLURAL : MessagePattern.ArgType
The argument is a cardinal-number PluralFormat with an optional ARG_INT or ARG_DOUBLE offset (e.g., offset:1) and one or more (ARG_SELECTOR [explicit-value] message) tuples. If the selector has an explicit value (e.g., =2), then that value is provided by the ARG_INT or ARG_DOUBLE part preceding the message. Otherwise the message immediately follows the ARG_SELECTOR.
SELECT
enum val SELECT : MessagePattern.ArgType
The argument is a SelectFormat with one or more (ARG_SELECTOR, message) pairs.
SIMPLE
enum val SIMPLE : MessagePattern.ArgType
The argument has a "simple" type which is provided by the ARG_TYPE part. An ARG_STYLE part might follow that.
