 /**

  * A <code>Locale</code> object represents a specific geographical, political,

  * or cultural region. An operation that requires a <code>Locale</code> to perform

  * its task is called <em>locale-sensitive</em> and uses the <code>Locale</code>

  * to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number

  * is a locale-sensitive operation— the number should be formatted

  * according to the customs and conventions of the user's native country,

  * region, or culture.

  *

  * <p> The <code>Locale</code> class implements identifiers

  * interchangeable with BCP 47 (IETF BCP 47, "Tags for Identifying

  * Languages"), with support for the LDML (UTS#35, "Unicode Locale

  * Data Markup Language") BCP 47-compatible extensions for locale data

  * exchange.

  *

  * <p> A <code>Locale</code> object logically consists of the fields

  * described below.

  *

  * <dl>

  *   <dt><a name="def_language"/><b>language</b></dt>

  *

  *   <dd>ISO 639 alpha-2 or alpha-3 language code, or registered

  *   language subtags up to 8 alpha letters (for future enhancements).

  *   When a language has both an alpha-2 code and an alpha-3 code, the

  *   alpha-2 code must be used.  You can find a full list of valid

  *   language codes in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for

  *   "Type: language").  The language field is case insensitive, but

  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to lower case.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Well-formed language values have the form

  *   <code>[a-zA-Z]{2,8}</code>.  Note that this is not the the full

  *   BCP47 language production, since it excludes extlang.  They are

  *   not needed since modern three-letter language codes replace

  *   them.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Example: "en" (English), "ja" (Japanese), "kok" (Konkani)</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dt><a name="def_script"/><b>script</b></dt>

  *

  *   <dd>ISO 15924 alpha-4 script code.  You can find a full list of

  *   valid script codes in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search

  *   for "Type: script").  The script field is case insensitive, but

  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to title case (the first

  *   letter is upper case and the rest of the letters are lower

  *   case).</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Well-formed script values have the form

  *   <code>[a-zA-Z]{4}</code></dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Example: "Latn" (Latin), "Cyrl" (Cyrillic)</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dt><a name="def_region"/><b>country (region)</b></dt>

  *

  *   <dd>ISO 3166 alpha-2 country code or UN M.49 numeric-3 area code.

  *   You can find a full list of valid country and region codes in the

  *   IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for "Type: region").  The

  *   country (region) field is case insensitive, but

  *   <code>Locale</code> always canonicalizes to upper case.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Well-formed country/region values have

  *   the form <code>[a-zA-Z]{2} | [0-9]{3}</code></dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Example: "US" (United States), "FR" (France), "029"

  *   (Caribbean)</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dt><a name="def_variant"/><b>variant</b></dt>

  *

  *   <dd>Any arbitrary value used to indicate a variation of a

  *   <code>Locale</code>.  Where there are two or more variant values

  *   each indicating its own semantics, these values should be ordered

  *   by importance, with most important first, separated by

  *   underscore('_').  The variant field is case sensitive.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Note: IETF BCP 47 places syntactic restrictions on variant

  *   subtags.  Also BCP 47 subtags are strictly used to indicate

  *   additional variations that define a language or its dialects that

  *   are not covered by any combinations of language, script and

  *   region subtags.  You can find a full list of valid variant codes

  *   in the IANA Language Subtag Registry (search for "Type: variant").

  *

  *   <p>However, the variant field in <code>Locale</code> has

  *   historically been used for any kind of variation, not just

  *   language variations.  For example, some supported variants

  *   available in Java SE Runtime Environments indicate alternative

  *   cultural behaviors such as calendar type or number script.  In

  *   BCP 47 this kind of information, which does not identify the

  *   language, is supported by extension subtags or private use

  *   subtags.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Well-formed variant values have the form <code>SUBTAG

  *   (('_'|'-') SUBTAG)*</code> where <code>SUBTAG =

  *   [0-9][0-9a-zA-Z]{3} | [0-9a-zA-Z]{5,8}</code>. (Note: BCP 47 only

  *   uses hyphen ('-') as a delimiter, this is more lenient).</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Example: "polyton" (Polytonic Greek), "POSIX"</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dt><a name="def_extensions"/><b>extensions</b></dt>

  *

  *   <dd>A map from single character keys to string values, indicating

  *   extensions apart from language identification.  The extensions in

  *   <code>Locale</code> implement the semantics and syntax of BCP 47

  *   extension subtags and private use subtags. The extensions are

  *   case insensitive, but <code>Locale</code> canonicalizes all

  *   extension keys and values to lower case. Note that extensions

  *   cannot have empty values.</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Well-formed keys are single characters from the set

  *   <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]</code>.  Well-formed values have the form

  *   <code>SUBTAG ('-' SUBTAG)*</code> where for the key 'x'

  *   <code>SUBTAG = [0-9a-zA-Z]{1,8}</code> and for other keys

  *   <code>SUBTAG = [0-9a-zA-Z]{2,8}</code> (that is, 'x' allows

  *   single-character subtags).</dd><br>

  *

  *   <dd>Example: key="u"/value="ca-japanese" (Japanese Calendar),

  *   key="x"/value="java-1-7"</dd>

  * </dl>

  *

  * <b>Note:</b> Although BCP 47 requires field values to be registered

  * in the IANA Language Subtag Registry, the <code>Locale</code> class

  * does not provide any validation features.  The <code>Builder</code>

  * only checks if an individual field satisfies the syntactic

  * requirement (is well-formed), but does not validate the value

  * itself.  See {@link Builder} for details.

  *

  * <h4><a name="def_locale_extension">Unicode locale/language extension</h4>

  *

  * <p>UTS#35, "Unicode Locale Data Markup Language" defines optional

  * attributes and keywords to override or refine the default behavior

  * associated with a locale.  A keyword is represented by a pair of

  * key and type.  For example, "nu-thai" indicates that Thai local

  * digits (value:"thai") should be used for formatting numbers

  * (key:"nu").

  *

  * <p>The keywords are mapped to a BCP 47 extension value using the

  * extension key 'u' ({@link #UNICODE_LOCALE_EXTENSION}).  The above

  * example, "nu-thai", becomes the extension "u-nu-thai".code

  *

  * <p>Thus, when a <code>Locale</code> object contains Unicode locale

  * attributes and keywords,

  * <code>getExtension(UNICODE_LOCALE_EXTENSION)</code> will return a

  * String representing this information, for example, "nu-thai".  The

  * <code>Locale</code> class also provides {@link

  * #getUnicodeLocaleAttributes}, {@link #getUnicodeLocaleKeys}, and

  * {@link #getUnicodeLocaleType} which allow you to access Unicode

  * locale attributes and key/type pairs directly.  When represented as

  * a string, the Unicode Locale Extension lists attributes

  * alphabetically, followed by key/type sequences with keys listed

  * alphabetically (the order of subtags comprising a key's type is

  * fixed when the type is defined)

  *

  * <p>A well-formed locale key has the form

  * <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]{2}</code>.  A well-formed locale type has the

  * form <code>"" | [0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8} ('-' [0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8})*</code> (it

  * can be empty, or a series of subtags 3-8 alphanums in length).  A

  * well-formed locale attribute has the form

  * <code>[0-9a-zA-Z]{3,8}</code> (it is a single subtag with the same

  * form as a locale type subtag).

  *

  * <p>The Unicode locale extension specifies optional behavior in

  * locale-sensitive services.  Although the LDML specification defines

  * various keys and values, actual locale-sensitive service

  * implementations in a Java Runtime Environment might not support any

  * particular Unicode locale attributes or key/type pairs.

  *

  * <h4>Creating a Locale</h4>

  *

  * <p>There are several different ways to create a <code>Locale</code>

  * object.

  *

  * <h5>Builder</h5>

  *

  * <p>Using {@link Builder} you can construct a <code>Locale</code> object

  * that conforms to BCP 47 syntax.

  *

  * <h5>Constructors</h5>

  *

  * <p>The <code>Locale</code> class provides three constructors:

  * <blockquote>

  * <pre>

  *     {@link #Locale(String language)}

  *     {@link #Locale(String language, String country)}

  *     {@link #Locale(String language, String country, String variant)}

  * </pre>

  * </blockquote>

  * These constructors allow you to create a <code>Locale</code> object

  * with language, country and variant, but you cannot specify

  * script or extensions.

  *

  * <h5>Factory Methods</h5>

  *

  * <p>The method {@link #forLanguageTag} creates a <code>Locale</code>

  * object for a well-formed BCP 47 language tag.

  *

  * <h5>Locale Constants</h5>

  *

  * <p>The <code>Locale</code> class provides a number of convenient constants

  * that you can use to create <code>Locale</code> objects for commonly used

  * locales. For example, the following creates a <code>Locale</code> object

  * for the United States:

  * <blockquote>

  * <pre>

  *     Locale.US

  * </pre>

  * </blockquote>

  *

  * <h4>Use of Locale</h4>

  *

  * <p>Once you've created a <code>Locale</code> you can query it for information

  * about itself. Use <code>getCountry</code> to get the country (or region)

  * code and <code>getLanguage</code> to get the language code.

  * You can use <code>getDisplayCountry</code> to get the

  * name of the country suitable for displaying to the user. Similarly,

  * you can use <code>getDisplayLanguage</code> to get the name of

  * the language suitable for displaying to the user. Interestingly,

  * the <code>getDisplayXXX</code> methods are themselves locale-sensitive

  * and have two versions: one that uses the default locale and one

  * that uses the locale specified as an argument.

  *

  * <p>The Java Platform provides a number of classes that perform locale-sensitive

  * operations. For example, the <code>NumberFormat</code> class formats

  * numbers, currency, and percentages in a locale-sensitive manner. Classes

  * such as <code>NumberFormat</code> have several convenience methods

  * for creating a default object of that type. For example, the

  * <code>NumberFormat</code> class provides these three convenience methods

  * for creating a default <code>NumberFormat</code> object:

  * <blockquote>

  * <pre>

  *     NumberFormat.getInstance()

  *     NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance()

  *     NumberFormat.getPercentInstance()

  * </pre>

  * </blockquote>

  * Each of these methods has two variants; one with an explicit locale

  * and one without; the latter uses the default locale:

  * <blockquote>

  * <pre>

  *     NumberFormat.getInstance(myLocale)

  *     NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(myLocale)

  *     NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(myLocale)

  * </pre>

  * </blockquote>

  * A <code>Locale</code> is the mechanism for identifying the kind of object

  * (<code>NumberFormat</code>) that you would like to get. The locale is

  * <STRONG>just</STRONG> a mechanism for identifying objects,

  * <STRONG>not</STRONG> a container for the objects themselves.

  *

  * <h4>Compatibility</h4>

  *

  * <p>In order to maintain compatibility with existing usage, Locale's

  * constructors retain their behavior prior to the Java Runtime

  * Environment version 1.7.  The same is largely true for the

  * <code>toString</code> method. Thus Locale objects can continue to

  * be used as they were. In particular, clients who parse the output

  * of toString into language, country, and variant fields can continue

  * to do so (although this is strongly discouraged), although the

  * variant field will have additional information in it if script or

  * extensions are present.

  *

  * <p>In addition, BCP 47 imposes syntax restrictions that are not

  * imposed by Locale's constructors. This means that conversions

  * between some Locales and BCP 47 language tags cannot be made without

  * losing information. Thus <code>toLanguageTag</code> cannot

  * represent the state of locales whose language, country, or variant

  * do not conform to BCP 47.

  *

  * <p>Because of these issues, it is recommended that clients migrate

  * away from constructing non-conforming locales and use the

  * <code>forLanguageTag</code> and <code>Locale.Builder</code> APIs instead.

  * Clients desiring a string representation of the complete locale can

  * then always rely on <code>toLanguageTag</code> for this purpose.

  *

  * <h5><a name="special_cases_constructor"/>Special cases</h5>

  *

  * <p>For compatibility reasons, two

  * non-conforming locales are treated as special cases.  These are

  * <b><tt>ja_JP_JP</tt></b> and <b><tt>th_TH_TH</tt></b>. These are ill-formed

  * in BCP 47 since the variants are too short. To ease migration to BCP 47,

  * these are treated specially during construction.  These two cases (and only

  * these) cause a constructor to generate an extension, all other values behave

  * exactly as they did prior to Java 7.

  *

  * <p>Java has used <tt>ja_JP_JP</tt> to represent Japanese as used in

  * Japan together with the Japanese Imperial calendar. This is now

  * representable using a Unicode locale extension, by specifying the

  * Unicode locale key <tt>ca</tt> (for "calendar") and type

  * <tt>japanese</tt>. When the Locale constructor is called with the

  * arguments "ja", "JP", "JP", the extension "u-ca-japanese" is

  * automatically added.

  *

  * <p>Java has used <tt>th_TH_TH</tt> to represent Thai as used in

  * Thailand together with Thai digits. This is also now representable using

  * a Unicode locale extension, by specifying the Unicode locale key

  * <tt>nu</tt> (for "number") and value <tt>thai</tt>. When the Locale

  * constructor is called with the arguments "th", "TH", "TH", the

  * extension "u-nu-thai" is automatically added.

  *

  * <h5>Serialization</h5>

  *

  * <p>During serialization, writeObject writes all fields to the output

  * stream, including extensions.

  *

  * <p>During deserialization, readResolve adds extensions as described

  * in <a href="#special_cases_constructor">Special Cases</a>, only

  * for the two cases th_TH_TH and ja_JP_JP.

  *

  * <h5>Legacy language codes</h5>

  *

  * <p>Locale's constructor has always converted three language codes to

  * their earlier, obsoleted forms: <tt>he</tt> maps to <tt>iw</tt>,

  * <tt>yi</tt> maps to <tt>ji</tt>, and <tt>id</tt> maps to

  * <tt>in</tt>.  This continues to be the case, in order to not break

  * backwards compatibility.

  *

  * <p>The APIs added in 1.7 map between the old and new language codes,

  * maintaining the old codes internal to Locale (so that

  * <code>getLanguage</code> and <code>toString</code> reflect the old

  * code), but using the new codes in the BCP 47 language tag APIs (so

  * that <code>toLanguageTag</code> reflects the new one). This

  * preserves the equivalence between Locales no matter which code or

  * API is used to construct them. Java's default resource bundle

  * lookup mechanism also implements this mapping, so that resources

  * can be named using either convention, see {@link ResourceBundle.Control}.

  *

  * <h5>Three-letter language/country(region) codes</h5>

  *

  * <p>The Locale constructors have always specified that the language

  * and the country param be two characters in length, although in

  * practice they have accepted any length.  The specification has now

  * been relaxed to allow language codes of two to eight characters and

  * country (region) codes of two to three characters, and in

  * particular, three-letter language codes and three-digit region

  * codes as specified in the IANA Language Subtag Registry.  For

  * compatibility, the implementation still does not impose a length

  * constraint.
