[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/googlei18n/libaddressinput.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/googlei18n/libaddressinput)

The _libaddressinput_ project consists of two different libraries (one

implemented in C++, one implemented in Java for Android) that use

[address metadata](https://github.com/google/libaddressinput/wiki/AddressValidationMetadata)

from

[Google](https://developers.google.com/)'s

[Address Data Service](https://chromium-i18n.appspot.com/ssl-address/data)

to assist application developers in collecting and handling _postal addresses_

from all over the world.

These libraries can provide information about what input fields are required for

a correct address input form for any country in the world and can validate an

address to highlight input errors like missing required fields or invalid

values.

## C++

The C++ library (in very portable C++11) of _libaddressinput_ is used in address-related

projects in [Chromium](http://www.chromium.org/Home).

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/third_party/libaddressinput/

## Java

The Java library of _libaddressinput_ is written for use in

[Android](https://developer.android.com/) and includes an Android UI address

input widget ready for use, but only the UI parts are tied to Android.

Non-UI code and tests can be run in Java SE, and the rest of the library could

easily be adapted to run in any Java environment.
