public abstract class BaseDateTimeField

extends DateTimeField

BaseDateTimeField provides the common behaviour for DateTimeField implementations.

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

BaseDateTimeField is thread-safe and immutable, and its subclasses must be as well.

Adds a value (which may be negative) to the instant value, overflowing into larger fields if necessary.

The value will be added to this field. If the value is too large to be added solely to this field, larger fields will increase as required. Smaller fields should be unaffected, except where the result would be an invalid value for a smaller field. In this case the smaller field is adjusted to be in range.

For example, in the ISO chronology:
2000-08-20 add six months is 2001-02-20
2000-08-20 add twenty months is 2002-04-20
2000-08-20 add minus nine months is 1999-11-20
2001-01-31 add one month is 2001-02-28
2001-01-31 add two months is 2001-03-31

Specified by:

add in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to add to

value - the value to add, in the units of the field

Returns:

the updated milliseconds

add

public long add(long instant,
                long value)

Specified by:

add in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to add to

value - the long value to add, in the units of the field

Returns:

the updated milliseconds

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if value is too large

add

public int[] add(ReadablePartial instant,
                 int fieldIndex,
                 int[] values,
                 int valueToAdd)

Adds a value (which may be negative) to the partial instant, throwing an exception if the maximum size of the instant is reached.

The value will be added to this field, overflowing into larger fields if necessary. Smaller fields should be unaffected, except where the result would be an invalid value for a smaller field. In this case the smaller field is adjusted to be in range.

Partial instants only contain some fields. This may result in a maximum possible value, such as TimeOfDay being limited to 23:59:59:999. If this limit is breached by the add an exception is thrown.

For example, in the ISO chronology:
2000-08-20 add six months is 2000-02-20
2000-08-20 add twenty months is 2000-04-20
2000-08-20 add minus nine months is 2000-11-20
2001-01-31 add one month is 2001-02-28
2001-01-31 add two months is 2001-03-31

Specified by:

add in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the partial instant

fieldIndex - the index of this field in the partial

values - the values of the partial instant which should be updated

valueToAdd - the value to add, in the units of the field

Returns:

the passed in values

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the value is invalid or the maximum instant is reached

addWrapPartial

public int[] addWrapPartial(ReadablePartial instant,
                            int fieldIndex,
                            int[] values,
                            int valueToAdd)

Adds a value (which may be negative) to the partial instant, wrapping the whole partial if the maximum size of the partial is reached.

The value will be added to this field, overflowing into larger fields if necessary. Smaller fields should be unaffected, except where the result would be an invalid value for a smaller field. In this case the smaller field is adjusted to be in range.

Partial instants only contain some fields. This may result in a maximum possible value, such as TimeOfDay normally being limited to 23:59:59:999. If ths limit is reached by the addition, this method will wrap back to 00:00:00.000. In fact, you would generally only use this method for classes that have a limitation such as this.

For example, in the ISO chronology:
10:20:30 add 20 minutes is 10:40:30
10:20:30 add 45 minutes is 11:05:30
10:20:30 add 16 hours is 02:20:30

Specified by:

addWrapPartial in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the partial instant

fieldIndex - the index of this field in the partial

values - the values of the partial instant which should be updated

valueToAdd - the value to add, in the units of the field

Returns:

the passed in values

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the value is invalid or the maximum instant is reached

addWrapField

public long addWrapField(long instant,
                         int value)

Adds a value (which may be negative) to the instant value, wrapping within this field.

The value will be added to this field. If the value is too large to be added solely to this field then it wraps. Larger fields are always unaffected. Smaller fields should be unaffected, except where the result would be an invalid value for a smaller field. In this case the smaller field is adjusted to be in range.

For example, in the ISO chronology:
2000-08-20 addWrapField six months is 2000-02-20
2000-08-20 addWrapField twenty months is 2000-04-20
2000-08-20 addWrapField minus nine months is 2000-11-20
2001-01-31 addWrapField one month is 2001-02-28
2001-01-31 addWrapField two months is 2001-03-31

Returns:

the maximum value for this field, in the units of the field

getMaximumValue

public int getMaximumValue(ReadablePartial instant)

Get the maximum value for this field evaluated at the specified instant.

This implementation returns the same as getMaximumValue().

Specified by:

getMaximumValue in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the partial instant to query

Returns:

the maximum value for this field, in the units of the field

getMaximumValue

public int getMaximumValue(ReadablePartial instant,
                           int[] values)

Get the maximum value for this field using the partial instant and the specified values.

This implementation returns the same as getMaximumValue(ReadablePartial).

Specified by:

getMaximumValue in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the partial instant to query

values - the values to use

Returns:

the maximum value for this field, in the units of the field

getMaximumTextLength

public int getMaximumTextLength(Locale locale)

Get the maximum text value for this field. The default implementation returns the equivalent of Integer.toString(getMaximumValue()).length().

Specified by:

getMaximumTextLength in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

locale - the locale to use for selecting a text symbol

Returns:

the maximum text length

getMaximumShortTextLength

public int getMaximumShortTextLength(Locale locale)

Get the maximum short text value for this field. The default implementation returns getMaximumTextLength().

Specified by:

getMaximumShortTextLength in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

locale - the locale to use for selecting a text symbol

Returns:

the maximum short text length

roundFloor

public abstract long roundFloor(long instant)

Round to the lowest whole unit of this field. After rounding, the value of this field and all fields of a higher magnitude are retained. The fractional millis that cannot be expressed in whole increments of this field are set to minimum.

For example, a datetime of 2002-11-02T23:34:56.789, rounded to the lowest whole hour is 2002-11-02T23:00:00.000.

Specified by:

roundFloor in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to round

Returns:

rounded milliseconds

roundCeiling

public long roundCeiling(long instant)

Round to the highest whole unit of this field. The value of this field and all fields of a higher magnitude may be incremented in order to achieve this result. The fractional millis that cannot be expressed in whole increments of this field are set to minimum.

For example, a datetime of 2002-11-02T23:34:56.789, rounded to the highest whole hour is 2002-11-03T00:00:00.000.

The default implementation calls roundFloor, and if the instant is modified as a result, adds one field unit. Subclasses are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation.

Specified by:

roundCeiling in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to round

Returns:

rounded milliseconds

roundHalfFloor

public long roundHalfFloor(long instant)

Round to the nearest whole unit of this field. If the given millisecond value is closer to the floor or is exactly halfway, this function behaves like roundFloor. If the millisecond value is closer to the ceiling, this function behaves like roundCeiling.

Specified by:

roundHalfFloor in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to round

Returns:

rounded milliseconds

roundHalfCeiling

public long roundHalfCeiling(long instant)

Round to the nearest whole unit of this field. If the given millisecond value is closer to the floor, this function behaves like roundFloor. If the millisecond value is closer to the ceiling or is exactly halfway, this function behaves like roundCeiling.

Specified by:

roundHalfCeiling in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to round

Returns:

rounded milliseconds

roundHalfEven

public long roundHalfEven(long instant)

Round to the nearest whole unit of this field. If the given millisecond value is closer to the floor, this function behaves like roundFloor. If the millisecond value is closer to the ceiling, this function behaves like roundCeiling.

If the millisecond value is exactly halfway between the floor and ceiling, the ceiling is chosen over the floor only if it makes this field's value even.

Specified by:

roundHalfEven in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to round

Returns:

rounded milliseconds

remainder

public long remainder(long instant)

Returns the fractional duration milliseconds of this field. In other words, calling remainder returns the duration that roundFloor would subtract.

For example, on a datetime of 2002-11-02T23:34:56.789, the remainder by hour is 34 minutes and 56.789 seconds.

The default implementation computes instant - roundFloor(instant). Subclasses are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation.

Specified by:

remainder in class DateTimeField

Parameters:

instant - the milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to get the remainder

Returns:

remainder duration, in milliseconds

toString

public String toString()

Get a suitable debug string.

Specified by:

toString in class DateTimeField

Returns:

debug string
