Package com.sharkysoft.printf.engine Description

Reconfigurable text and data formatting engines.

Details: Package com.sharkysoft.printf.engine comprises general-purpose data formatting classes that are configurable using bean-style getters and setters. These classes are the "back end" for Printf for Java and bare the burden of each printf formatting request. A successfully parsed Printf for Java format string results in the creation of a PrintfTemplate, which instantiates a vector of appropriately configured formatters from the classes in this package. Direct access to the Printf for Java formatting engine allows the programmer to sacrifice the conciseness of a format string in exchange for the flexibility of bean-style formatters.
