Interface GDurationSpecification

All Known Implementing Classes:

GDuration, GDurationBuilder

public interface GDurationSpecification

Represents an XML Schema-compatible duration.

Both the immutable GDuration and the mutable GDurationBuilder are GDurationSpecifications. Use this interface where you want to allow callers to pass any implementation of a GDuration.

Method Detail

isImmutable

boolean isImmutable()

True if this instance is immutable.

getSign

int getSign()

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

getYear

int getYear()

Gets the year component.

getMonth

int getMonth()

Gets the month-of-year component.

getDay

int getDay()

Gets the day-of-month component.

getHour

int getHour()

Gets the hour-of-day component.

getMinute

int getMinute()

Gets the minute-of-hour component.

getSecond

int getSecond()

Gets the second-of-minute component.

getFraction

BigDecimal getFraction()

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

isValid

boolean isValid()

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

compareToGDuration

int compareToGDuration(GDurationSpecification duration)

Comparison to another GDuration.

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

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