Interface Orthography

public interface Orthography

A combination of language, country, and script that describes a unique written language.

Developer Notes: Neither Locale nor the ICU4J ULocale class were flexible enough for our purposes, as they lack an interface that can be implemented by other classes. We wanted classes like formatting objects to be able to directly provide this information to avoid unnecessary object creation. Client classes that wish to use either of these classes may want to consider writing an adapter that implements this interface and wraps an instance of one of those classes.
