Method Detail

from

public static Interval.IntervalBuilder from(LocalDateTime start)

Starts building a new Interval with the given start time.

Parameters:

start - must not be null.

Returns:

will never be null.

getDuration

public Duration getDuration()

Returns the duration of the interval, with the end excluded.

Returns:

will never be null.

contains

public boolean contains(LocalDateTime reference)

Returns whether the given LocalDateTime is contained in the current Interval. The comparison includes start and end, i.e., the method treats this interval as closed.

Parameters:

reference - must not be null.

Returns:

overlaps

public boolean overlaps(Interval reference)

Returns whether the current Interval overlaps with the given one. The comparison excludes start and end, i.e., the method treats both intervals as open.

Parameters:

reference - must not be null.

Returns:

toDuration

public Duration toDuration()

Returns the Duration represented by the given Interval, with the end excluded.

Returns:

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getStart

public LocalDateTime getStart()

The start date of the Interval.

getEnd

public LocalDateTime getEnd()

The end date of the Interval.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
