Example 1:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// getAvailableLocales() methodimport java.text.*;import java.util.*;import java.io.*;public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // Creating and initializing new simple rule String simple = "< a< b< c< d"; // Creating and initializing // new RuleBasedCollator Object RuleBasedCollator col = new RuleBasedCollator(simple); // getting all the available locale // using getAvailableLocales() method Locale[] locale = col.getAvailableLocales(); // display result System.out.println("Equivalent Locales are "); for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) System.out.println(locale[i]); } catch (ClassCastException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e); } catch (ParseException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e); } }} |
Output:
Equivalent Locales are ar_AE ar_JO ar_SY hr_HR fr_BE
Example 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// getAvailableLocales() methodimport java.text.*;import java.util.*;import java.io.*;public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // Creating and initializing Collator Object Collator col = Collator.getInstance(Locale.UK); // getting all the available locale // using getAvailableLocales() method Locale[] locale = col.getAvailableLocales(); // display result System.out.println("Equivalent Locales are "); for (int i = 6; i <= 10; i++) System.out.println(locale[i]); } catch (ClassCastException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown : " + e); } }} |
Output:
Equivalent Locales are es_PA es_VE mt_MT bg zh_TW
