Class GDuration

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.xmlbeans.GDuration

All Implemented Interfaces:

GDurationSpecification, Serializable

public final class GDuration

extends Object

implements GDurationSpecification, Serializable

Represents an XML Schema-compatible duration.

A duration is made up of a number of years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and fractions of seconds. See the XML Schema specification section on xs:duration for details on the rules for comparing durations and adding durations to dates.

Constructor Summary

GDuration()
Constructs an empty GDuration representing zero seconds.

GDuration(CharSequence str)
Constructs a GDuration from a lexical representation.

GDuration(GDurationSpecification gDuration)
Constructs a GDuration from another GDurationSpecification.

GDuration(int sign, int year, int month, int day, int hour, int minute, int second, BigDecimal fraction)
Constructs a GDuration with the specified sign, year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, and optional fractional seconds.

Method Summary

GDuration	add(GDurationSpecification duration) Returns a new GDuration which is the sum of this one and the supplied duration.
Object	clone() Builds another GDate with the same value as this one.
int	compareToGDuration(GDurationSpecification duration) Comparison to another GDuration.
boolean	equals(Object obj) Two GDurations are equal if all their fields are equal.

int	getMinute() Gets the minute-of-hour component.
int	getMonth() Gets the month-of-year component.
int	getSecond() Gets the second-of-minute component.
int	getSign() Returns the sign of the duration: +1 is forwards and -1 is backwards in time.
int	getYear() Gets the year component.
int	hashCode()
boolean	isImmutable() All GDuration instances return true.
boolean	isValid() Returns true if all of the individual components of the duration are nonnegative.
GDuration	subtract(GDurationSpecification duration) Returns a new GDuration which is the result of subtracting the supplied duration from this one.

Constructor Detail

GDuration

public GDuration()

Constructs an empty GDuration representing zero seconds.

GDuration

public GDuration(CharSequence str)

Constructs a GDuration from a lexical representation. The lexical space contains the union of the lexical spaces of all the schema date/time types (except for duration).

GDuration

public GDuration(int sign,
                 int year,
                 int month,
                 int day,
                 int hour,
                 int minute,
                 int second,
                 BigDecimal fraction)

Constructs a GDuration with the specified sign, year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, and optional fractional seconds.

Parameters:

sign - +1 for a positive duration, -1 for a negative duration

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the sign is not 1 or -1

GDuration

public GDuration(GDurationSpecification gDuration)

Constructs a GDuration from another GDurationSpecification.

Method Detail

clone

public Object clone()

Builds another GDate with the same value as this one.

isImmutable

public final boolean isImmutable()

All GDuration instances return true.

Specified by:

isImmutable in interface GDurationSpecification

getSign

public final int getSign()

Returns the sign of the duration: +1 is forwards and -1 is backwards in time.

Specified by:

getSign in interface GDurationSpecification

getYear

public final int getYear()

Gets the year component.

Specified by:

getYear in interface GDurationSpecification

getMonth

public final int getMonth()

Gets the month-of-year component.

Specified by:

getMonth in interface GDurationSpecification

getDay

public final int getDay()

Gets the day-of-month component.

Specified by:

getDay in interface GDurationSpecification

getHour

public final int getHour()

Gets the hour-of-day component.

Specified by:

getHour in interface GDurationSpecification

getMinute

public final int getMinute()

Gets the minute-of-hour component.

Specified by:

getMinute in interface GDurationSpecification

getSecond

public final int getSecond()

Gets the second-of-minute component.

Specified by:

getSecond in interface GDurationSpecification

getFraction

public BigDecimal getFraction()

Gets the fraction-of-second. Range from 0 (inclusive) to 1 (exclusive).

Specified by:

getFraction in interface GDurationSpecification

isValid

public boolean isValid()

Returns true if all of the individual components of the duration are nonnegative.

Specified by:

isValid in interface GDurationSpecification

compareToGDuration

public final int compareToGDuration(GDurationSpecification duration)

Comparison to another GDuration.

• 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:

compareToGDuration in interface GDurationSpecification

toString

public String toString()

The natural string representation of the duration.

Any components that are zero are omitted. Note that if the duration is invalid, i.e., it has negative components, those negative components are serialized out here. To check for validity, use the isValid() method; and to normalize most durations to a valid form use the normalize() method.

add

public GDuration add(GDurationSpecification duration)

Returns a new GDuration which is the sum of this one and the supplied duration. Does a fieldwise addition, with no normalization.

subtract

public GDuration subtract(GDurationSpecification duration)

Returns a new GDuration which is the result of subtracting the supplied duration from this one. Does a fieldwise subtraction, with no normalization.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Two GDurations are equal if all their fields are equal. The equals function does not apply normalizatin.

hashCode

public int hashCode()
