Hello, I'm trying to use this api to manage material quantities. I'm trying to parse string units from a DB to a Unit. Can someone advise? I tried this approach, but it seems the ServiceProvider needs to be configured with services. Is there an easier approach to identifying a unit? In this case, I'm assuming it's mass but it could also be a volume.
private void parseMeasurement() {
if (available > 0 && availableUnit != null) {
try {
UnitFormat format = ServiceProvider.current().getFormatService().getUnitFormat();
Unit<?> unit = format.parse(availableUnit);
if (unit.getSystemUnit() instanceof Mass) {
Quantity<?> mass = Quantities.getQuantity(available,unit);
massAvailProperty().set(mass);
} else {
log.debug("Unexpected unit {} is not a Mass", unit.getName());
}
} catch (MeasurementParseException e) {
log.debug("Can't parse unit",e);
}
}
}
Thanks
