Class ShortenedYearRangeChecker

java.lang.Object
org.languagetool.rules.patterns.RuleFilter
org.languagetool.rules.ShortenedYearRangeChecker

public class ShortenedYearRangeChecker extends RuleFilter
Checks whether a shortened year range (such as '1998-92') is valid, i.e., that the starting date happens before the end date. The check is trivial: simply check whether the first integer number is smaller than the second, so this can be implemented for any language. The parameters used in the XML file are called 'x' and 'y'.
