Package net.sf.saxon.number
This package provides classes associated with numbering and the xsl:number
element.
It is possible to extend the range of numberings available by providing a Numberer
for a specific language. This should be named Numberer_xx where xx is the language code,
corresponding to the value of the lang attribute in xsl:number
.
The class Numberer_de
is provided as an illustration of how to do this;
it is invoked when the stylesheet specifies <xsl:number lang="de">, and a format
token of "eins" is used: it allows numbers up to ten to be output as "eins", "zwei", "drei", etc.
The class Numberer_en
provides the standard numbering options. As well as the
format tokens defined in the XSLT 1.0 specification (for example, "1", "001", "a", "i") it supports
other numbering options including:
- Greek upper and lower case letters
- Cyrillic upper and lower case letters
- Hebrew letters
- Japanese: Hiragana-A, Hiragana-B, Katakana-A, or Katakana-B letters, and Kanji digits
- English words: the format token "one" produces numbers such as "twenty five"
These classes also include code to support the localization of dates as defined
in the XSLT format-dateTime()
group of functions.
