All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable, Comparable<LanguageCode>

public enum LanguageCode
extends Enum<LanguageCode>

ISO 639-1 language code.

Enum names of this enum themselves are represented by ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lower-case alphabets).

 // List all the language codes.
 for (LanguageCode code : LanguageCode.values())
 {
     // For example, "[ar] Arabic" is printed.
     System.out.format("[%s] %s\n", code, code.getName());
 }

 // Get a LanguageCode instance by ISO 639-1 code.
 LanguageCode code = LanguageCode.getByCode("fr");

 // Convert to a Locale instance.
 Locale locale = code.toLocale();

 // Get a LanguageCode by a Locale instance.
 code = LanguageCode.getByLocale(locale);

 // Get a list by a regular expression for names.
 //
 // The list will contain:
 //
 //     LanguageCode.an : Aragonese
 //     LanguageCode.ja : Japanese
 //     LanguageCode.jv : Javanese
 //     LanguageCode.su : Sundanese
 //     LanguageCode.zh : Chinese
 //
 List<LanguageCode> list = LanguageCode.findByName(".*nese");

Method Detail

values
```
public static LanguageCode[] values()
```
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (LanguageCode c : LanguageCode.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf
```
public static LanguageCode valueOf(String name)
```
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getName
```
public String getName()
```
Get the language name.

Returns:
The language name.

toLocale

public Locale toLocale()

Convert this LanguageCode instance to a Locale instance.

In most cases, this method creates a new Locale instance every time it is called, but some LanguageCode instances return their corresponding entries in Locale class. For example, LanguageCode.ja always returns Locale.JAPANESE.

The table below lists LanguageCode entries whose toLocale() do not create new Locale instances but return entries in Locale class.

LanguageCode	Locale
`LanguageCode.de`	`Locale.GERMAN`
`LanguageCode.en`	`Locale.ENGLISH`
`LanguageCode.fr`	`Locale.FRENCH`
`LanguageCode.it`	`Locale.ITALIAN`
`LanguageCode.ja`	`Locale.JAPANESE`
`LanguageCode.ko`	`Locale.KOREAN`
`LanguageCode.zh`	`Locale.CHINESE`

Returns:: A Locale instance that matches this LanguageCode.

getAlpha3

public LanguageAlpha3Code getAlpha3()

Get ISO 639-2 language code (3-letter lowercase code(s)).

Most languages have just one corresponding ISO 639-2 code, but some languages have two ISO 639-2 codes. They are known as "bibliographic" code (ISO 639-2/B code) and "terminological" code (ISO 639-2/T code). This method returns ISO 639-2/T code. If you want to get ISO 639-2/B code, write like below.


 LanguageCode alpha2 = ...;

 LanguageAlpha3Code alpha3B = alpha2.getAlpha3().getAlpha3B();

The above code does no harm for most LanguageCodes that have just one ISO 639-2 code. getAlpha3B() of such LanguageAlpha3Code instances just return themselves (= this object).

The table below lists languages having two ISO 639-2 codes.

Returns:: ISO 639-2 language code.

getByCode
```
public static LanguageCode getByCode(String code)
```
Get a LanguageCode that corresponds to a given ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code).
This method calls getByCode(code, true). Note that the behavior has changed since the version 1.13. In the older versions, this method was an alias of getByCode(code, false).

Parameters:
code - An ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or an ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code). Or "undefined" (case sensitive). Note that if the given code is one of legacy language codes ("iw", "ji" and "in"), it is treated as its official counterpart ("he", "yi" and "id", respectively). For example, if "in" is given, this method returns LanguageCode.id.

Returns:
A LanguageCode instance, or null if not found.

getByCodeIgnoreCase
```
public static LanguageCode getByCodeIgnoreCase(String code)
```
Get a LanguageCode that corresponds to a given ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code).
This method calls getByCode(code, false).

Parameters:
code - An ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or an ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code). Or "undefined" (case insensitive). Note that if the given code is one of legacy language codes ("iw", "ji" and "in"), it is treated as its official counterpart ("he", "yi" and "id", respectively). For example, if "in" is given, this method returns LanguageCode.id.

Returns:
A LanguageCode instance, or null if not found.
Since:

1.13

getByCode
```
public static LanguageCode getByCode(String code,
                     boolean caseSensitive)
```
Get a LanguageCode that corresponds to a given ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code).

Parameters:
code - An ISO 639-1 code (2-letter lowercase code) or an ISO 639-2 code (3-letter lowercase code). Or "undefined" (its case sensitivity depends on the value of caseSensitive). Note that if the given code is one of legacy language codes ("iw", "ji" and "in"), it is treated as its official counterpart ("he", "yi" and "id", respectively). For example, if "in" is given, this method returns LanguageCode.id.
caseSensitive - If true, the given code should consist of lowercase letters only. If false, this method internally canonicalizes the given code by String.toLowerCase() and then performs search. For example, getByCode("JA", true) returns null, but on the other hand, getByCode("JA", false) returns LanguageCode.ja.

Returns:
A LanguageCode instance, or null if not found.

getByLocale
```
public static LanguageCode getByLocale(Locale locale)
```
Get a LanguageCode that corresponds to the language code of the given Locale instance.

Parameters:
locale - A Locale instance.

Returns:
A LanguageCode instance, or null if not found. When getLanguage() method of the given Locale instance returns null or an empty string, LanguageCode.undefined is returned.
See Also:
Locale.getLanguage()

findByName
```
public static List<LanguageCode> findByName(String regex)
```
Get a list of LanguageCode by a name regular expression.
This method is almost equivalent to findByName(Pattern.compile(regex)).

Parameters:
regex - Regular expression for names.

Returns:
List of LanguageCode. If nothing has matched, an empty list is returned.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - regex is null.

PatternSyntaxException - regex failed to be compiled.
Since:

1.11

findByName
```
public static List<LanguageCode> findByName(Pattern pattern)
```
Get a list of LanguageCode by a name pattern.
For example, the list obtained by the code snippet below:
```
 Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(".*nese");
 List<LanguageCode> list = LanguageCode.findByName(pattern);
```
contains 5 LanguageCodes as listed below.
1. an : Aragonese
2. ja : Japanese
3. jv : Javanese
4. su : Sundanese
5. zh : Chinese
Parameters:
pattern - Pattern to match names.

Returns:
List of LanguageCode. If nothing has matched, an empty list is returned.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - pattern is null.
Since:

1.11
