Class PhoneNumberMatch

java.lang.Object
  com.google.i18n.phonenumbers.PhoneNumberMatch

public final class PhoneNumberMatch
extends Object

The immutable match of a phone number within a piece of text. Matches may be found using PhoneNumberUtil.findNumbers(java.lang.CharSequence, java.lang.String).

A match consists of the phone number as well as the start and end offsets of the corresponding subsequence of the searched text. Use rawString() to obtain a copy of the matched subsequence.

The following annotated example clarifies the relationship between the searched text, the match offsets, and the parsed number:

 CharSequence text = "Call me at +1 425 882-8080 for details.";
 RegionCode country = RegionCode.US;
 PhoneNumberUtil util = PhoneNumberUtil.getInstance();

 // Find the first phone number match:
 PhoneNumberMatch m = util.findNumbers(text, country).iterator().next();

 // rawString() contains the phone number as it appears in the text.
 "+1 425 882-8080".equals(m.rawString());

 // start() and end() define the range of the matched subsequence.
 CharSequence subsequence = text.subSequence(m.start(), m.end());
 "+1 425 882-8080".contentEquals(subsequence);

 // number() returns the the same result as PhoneNumberUtil.parse()
 // invoked on rawString().
 util.parse(m.rawString(), country).equals(m.number());
