  • Field Details

  • Constructor Details

    • Year

      public Year()
      Creates a new Year, based on the current system date/time. The time zone and locale are determined by the calendar returned by RegularTimePeriod.getCalendarInstance().

    • Year

      public Year(int year)
      Creates a time period representing a single year. The time zone and locale are determined by the calendar returned by RegularTimePeriod.getCalendarInstance().
      Parameters:
      year - the year.

    • Year

      public Year(Date time)
      Creates a new Year, based on a particular instant in time. The time zone and locale are determined by the calendar returned by RegularTimePeriod.getCalendarInstance().
      Parameters:
      time - the time (null not permitted).
      See Also:

    • Year

      public Year(Date time, TimeZone zone, Locale locale)
      Creates a new Year instance, for the specified time zone and locale.
      Parameters:
      time - the current time (null not permitted).
      zone - the time zone.
      locale - the locale.

    • Year

      public Year(Date time, Calendar calendar)
      Constructs a new instance, based on a particular date/time. The time zone and locale are determined by the calendar parameter.
      Parameters:
      time - the date/time (null not permitted).
      calendar - the calendar to use for calculations (null not permitted).

  • Method Details

    • getYear

      public int getYear()
      Returns the year.
      Returns:
      The year.

    • getFirstMillisecond

      public long getFirstMillisecond()
      Returns the first millisecond of the year. This will be determined relative to the time zone specified in the constructor, or in the calendar instance passed in the most recent call to the peg(Calendar) method.
      Specified by:
      getFirstMillisecond in class RegularTimePeriod
      Returns:
      The first millisecond of the year.
      See Also:

    • getLastMillisecond

      public long getLastMillisecond()
      Returns the last millisecond of the year. This will be determined relative to the time zone specified in the constructor, or in the calendar instance passed in the most recent call to the peg(Calendar) method.
      Specified by:
      getLastMillisecond in class RegularTimePeriod
      Returns:
      The last millisecond of the year.
      See Also:

    • peg

      public void peg(Calendar calendar)
      Recalculates the start date/time and end date/time for this time period relative to the supplied calendar (which incorporates a time zone).
      Specified by:
      peg in class RegularTimePeriod
      Parameters:
      calendar - the calendar (null not permitted).

    • previous

      public RegularTimePeriod previous()
      Returns the year preceding this one. No matter what time zone and locale this instance was created with, the returned instance will use the default calendar for time calculations, obtained with RegularTimePeriod.getCalendarInstance().
      Specified by:
      previous in class RegularTimePeriod
      Returns:
      The year preceding this one (or null if the current year is -9999).

    • next

      public RegularTimePeriod next()
      Returns the year following this one. No matter what time zone and locale this instance was created with, the returned instance will use the default calendar for time calculations, obtained with RegularTimePeriod.getCalendarInstance().
      Specified by:
      next in class RegularTimePeriod
      Returns:
      The year following this one (or null if the current year is 9999).

    • getSerialIndex

      public long getSerialIndex()
      Returns a serial index number for the year.

      The implementation simply returns the year number (e.g. 2002).

      Specified by:
      getSerialIndex in class RegularTimePeriod
      Returns:
      The serial index number.

    • getFirstMillisecond

      public long getFirstMillisecond(Calendar calendar)
      Returns the first millisecond of the year, evaluated using the supplied calendar (which determines the time zone).
      Specified by:
      getFirstMillisecond in class RegularTimePeriod
      Parameters:
      calendar - the calendar (null not permitted).
      Returns:
      The first millisecond of the year.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if calendar is null.
      See Also:

    • getLastMillisecond

      public long getLastMillisecond(Calendar calendar)
      Returns the last millisecond of the year, evaluated using the supplied calendar (which determines the time zone).
      Specified by:
      getLastMillisecond in class RegularTimePeriod
      Parameters:
      calendar - the calendar (null not permitted).
      Returns:
      The last millisecond of the year.

      See Also:

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Tests the equality of this Year object to an arbitrary object. Returns true if the target is a Year instance representing the same year as this object. In all other cases, returns false.
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      Parameters:
      obj - the object (null permitted).
      Returns:
      true if the year of this and the object are the same.

    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Returns a hash code for this object instance. The approach described by Joshua Bloch in "Effective Java" has been used here:
