Convert international phone number into local one

Question

I'm trying to use libphonenumber google library to convert a number from international to local.

The international number represent is: "+97239658320"

The local number (here in Israel is): "039658320"

http://code.google.com/p/libphonenumber/

    PhoneNumberUtil phoneUtil = PhoneNumberUtil.getInstance();

    PhoneNumber phone = null;

    try
    {
        phone = PhoneNumberUtil.getInstance().parse("+97239658320", null);
    }

    catch (NumberParseException e)
    {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

however, in "phone" the results are:

Country Code: 972 National Number: 39658320 (without the leading zero)

how do I convert it correctly?

Answer 1

Looking at the quick example of the project page says that you after parsing should have:

{
country_code: 972
national_number: 39658320
}

To get it in your desired format you should format it with format NATIONAL:

phoneUtil.format(phone, PhoneNumberFormat.NATIONAL)

To strip out any phone number separators take a look at stripSeparators() from android.telephony.PhoneNumberUtils
