Class GDateBuilder

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.xmlbeans.GDateBuilder

All Implemented Interfaces:

GDateSpecification, Serializable

public final class GDateBuilder

extends Object

implements GDateSpecification, Serializable

Used to build GDates.

Like GDate, a GDateBuilder represents an Gregorian Date, Time, and Timezone, or subset of information (Year, Month, Day, Time, Timezone, or some combination). Wherever it provides guidance, the XML Schema 1.0 specification (plus published errata) is followed.

Instances may separately set or clear the year, month, day-of-month, and time-of-day. Not all operations are meaningful on all combinations. In particular, timezone normalization is only possible if there is a time, or a time together with a full date.

                    BigDecimal fraction)

Constructs a GDateBuilder with the specified year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, and optional fractional seconds, in an unspecified timezone.

Note that by not specifying the timezone the GDateBuilder becomes partially unordered with respect to timesthat do have a specified timezone.

Parameters:

year - The year

month - The month, from 1-12

day - The day of month, from 1-31

hour - The hour of day, from 0-23

tzMinute - the timezone offset minute

GDateBuilder

public GDateBuilder(Date date)

Constructs a GDateBuilder based on a java.util.Date.

The current offset of the default timezone is used as the timezone.

For example, if eastern daylight time is in effect at the given date, the timezone on the east coast of the united states translates to GMT-05:00 (EST) + 1:00 (DT offset) == GMT-04:00.

Parameters:

date - the date object to copy

                                int tzHour,
                                int tzMinute)

If the time and timezone are known, this method changes the timezone to the specified UTC offset, altering minutes, hours, day, month, and year as necessary to ensure that the actual described moment in time is the same.

It is an error to operate on instances without a time or timezone, or with a partially specified date.

fraction - the number of fractional seconds to add (may be null)

getJulianDate

public final int getJulianDate()

Returns the Julian date corresponding to this Gregorian date. The Julian date (JD) is a continuous count of days from 1 January 4713 BC (= -4712 January 1).

Specified by:

getJulianDate in interface GDateSpecification

setJulianDate

public void setJulianDate(int julianday)

Sets the Gregorian date based on the given Julian date. The Julian date (JD) is a continuous count of days from 1 January 4713 BC (= -4712 January 1).

Parameters:

julianday - the julian day number

setDate

public void setDate(Date date)

Sets the current time and date based on a java.util.Date instance.

The timezone offset used is based on the default TimeZone. (The default TimeZone is consulted to incorporate daylight savings offsets if applicable for the current date as well as the base timezone offset.)

If you wish to normalize the timezone, e.g., to UTC, follow this with a call to normalizeToTimeZone.

Parameters:

date - the Date object to copy

setGDate

public void setGDate(GDateSpecification gdate)

Copies a GDateSpecification, completely replacing the current information in this GDateBuilder.

Parameters:

gdate - the GDateSpecification to copy

getCalendar

public XmlCalendar getCalendar()

Retrieves the value of the current time as an XmlCalendar.

XmlCalendar is a subclass of GregorianCalendar which is slightly customized to match XML schema date rules.

The returned XmlCalendar has only those time and date fields set that are reflected in the GDate object. Because of the way the Calendar contract works, any information in the isSet() vanishes as soon as you view any unset field using get() methods. This means that if it is important to understand which date fields are set, you must call isSet() first before get().

Specified by:

getCalendar in interface GDateSpecification

getDate

public Date getDate()

Retrieves the value of the current time as a java.util.Date instance.

Specified by:

getDate in interface GDateSpecification

compareToGDate

public final int compareToGDate(GDateSpecification datespec)

Comparison to another GDate.

• Returns -1 if this < date. (less-than)
• Returns 0 if this == date. (equal)
• Returns 1 if this > date. (greater-than)
• Returns 2 if this <> date. (incomparable)

Two instances are incomparable if they have different amounts of information.

Specified by:

compareToGDate in interface GDateSpecification

Parameters:

datespec - the date to compare against

getBuiltinTypeCode

public final int getBuiltinTypeCode()

Returns the builtin type code for the shape of the information contained in this instance, or 0 if the instance doesn't contain information corresponding to a Schema type.

Value will be equal to SchemaType.BTC_NOT_BUILTIN, SchemaType.BTC_G_YEAR, SchemaType.BTC_G_YEAR_MONTH, SchemaType.BTC_G_MONTH, SchemaType.BTC_G_MONTH_DAY, SchemaType.BTC_G_DAY, SchemaType.BTC_DATE, SchemaType.BTC_DATE_TIME, or SchemaType.BTC_TIME.

Specified by:

getBuiltinTypeCode in interface GDateSpecification

setBuiltinTypeCode

public void setBuiltinTypeCode(int typeCode)

Clears the fields in this GDateBuilder that are not applicable for the given SchemaType date code. The code should be SchemaType.BTC_G_YEAR, SchemaType.BTC_G_YEAR_MONTH, SchemaType.BTC_G_MONTH, SchemaType.BTC_G_MONTH_DAY, SchemaType.BTC_G_DAY, SchemaType.BTC_DATE, SchemaType.BTC_DATE_TIME, or SchemaType.BTC_TIME.

Parameters:

typeCode - the type code to apply

canonicalString

public String canonicalString()

The canonical string representation. Specific moments or times-of-day in a specified timezone are normalized to UTC time to produce a canonical string form for them. Other recurring time specifications keep their timezone information.

Specified by:

canonicalString in interface GDateSpecification

toString

public final String toString()

The natural string representation. This represents the information that is available, including timezone. For types that correspond to defined schema types (schemaBuiltinTypeCode() > 0), this provides the natural lexical representation.

When both time and timezone are specified, this string is not the canonical representation unless the timezone is UTC (Z) (since the same moment in time can be expressed in different timezones). To get a canonical string, use the canonicalString() method.

Specified by:

toString in interface GDateSpecification
