Class BaseInterval

java.lang.Object
  org.joda.time.base.AbstractInterval
      org.joda.time.base.BaseInterval

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ReadableInterval

Direct Known Subclasses:

Interval, MutableInterval

public abstract class BaseInterval
extends AbstractInterval
implements ReadableInterval, Serializable

BaseInterval is an abstract implementation of ReadableInterval that stores data in two long millisecond fields.

This class should generally not be used directly by API users. The ReadableInterval interface should be used when different kinds of interval objects are to be referenced.

BaseInterval subclasses may be mutable and not thread-safe.
