If the range smaller than the resolution 22 * specified by the skeleton, a single date format will be produced. If the range 23 * is larger than the format specified by the skeleton, a locale-specific fallback 24 * will be used to format the items missing from the skeleton. 25 * 26 * For example, if the range is 2010-03-04 07:56 - 2010-03-04 19:56 (12 hours) 27 * - The skeleton jm will produce 28 * for en_US, "7:56 AM - 7:56 PM" 29 * for en_GB, "7:56 - 19:56" 30 * - The skeleton MMMd will produce 31 * for en_US, "Mar 4" 32 * for en_GB, "4 Mar" 33 * If the range is 2010-03-04 07:56 - 2010-03-08 16:11 (4 days, 8 hours, 15 minutes) 34 * - The skeleton jm will produce 35 * for en_US, "3/4/2010 7:56 AM - 3/8/2010 4:11 PM" 36 * for en_GB, "4/3/2010 7:56 - 8/3/2010 16:11" 37 * - The skeleton MMMd will produce 38 * for en_US, "Mar 4-8" 39 * for en_GB, "4-8 Mar" 40 * 41 * Note: the "-" characters in the above sample output will actually be 42 * Unicode 2013, EN_DASH, in all but the last example. 43 * 44 * Note, in ICU 4.4 the standard skeletons for which date interval format data 45 * is usually available are as follows; best results will be obtained by using 46 * skeletons from this set, or those formed by combining these standard skeletons 47 * (note that for these skeletons, the length of digit field such as d, y, or 48 * M vs MM is irrelevant (but for non-digit fields such as MMM vs MMMM it is 49 * relevant). Note that a skeleton involving h or H generally explicitly requests 50 * that time style (12- or 24-hour time respectively).
