Annotation Type Messages.Offset


  • @Retention(RUNTIME)
    @Target(PARAMETER)
    public static @interface Messages.Offset
    Ignored except on parameters also tagged with Messages.PluralCount, and provides an offset to be subtracted from the value before a plural rule is chosen or the value is formatted. Note that "=n" forms are evaluated before this offset is applied.

    Example:

       @PluralText({"=0", "No one has recommended this movie",
         "=1", "{0} has recommended this movie",
         "=2", "{0} and {1} have recommended this movie",
         "one", "{0}, {1} and one other have recommended this movie"})
       @DefaultMessage("{0}, {1} and {2,number} others have recommended this movie")
       String recommenders(@Optional String rec1, @Optional String rec2,
         @PluralCount @Offset(2) int count);
     
    would result in
     recommenders("John", null, 1) => "John has..."
     recommenders("John", "Jane", 3) => "John, Jane, and one other..."
     recommenders("John", "Jane", 1402) => "John, Jane, and 1,400 others..."
