Class Days

java.lang.Object
org.threeten.extra.Days
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<Days>, TemporalAmount

public final class Days extends Object implements TemporalAmount, Comparable<Days>, Serializable
A day-based amount of time, such as '12 days'.

This class models a quantity or amount of time in terms of days. It is a type-safe way of representing a number of days in an application.

The model is of a directed amount, meaning that the amount may be negative.

Implementation Requirements:

This class is immutable and thread-safe.

This class must be treated as a value type. Do not synchronize, rely on the identity hash code or use the distinction between equals() and ==.

      A constant for zero days.
    • ONE

      public static final Days ONE
      A constant for one day.
  • Method Details

    • of

      public static Days of(int days)
      Obtains a Days representing a number of days.

      The resulting amount will have the specified days.

      Parameters:
      days - the number of days, positive or negative
      Returns:
      the number of days, not null
    • ofWeeks

      public static Days ofWeeks(int weeks)
      Obtains a Days representing the number of days equivalent to a number of weeks.

      The resulting amount will be day-based, with the number of days equal to the number of weeks multiplied by 7.

      Parameters:
      weeks - the number of weeks, positive or negative
      Returns:
      the amount with the input weeks converted to days, not null
      Throws:
      ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs
    • from

      public static Days from(TemporalAmount amount)
      Obtains an instance of Days from a temporal amount.

      This obtains an instance based on the specified amount. A TemporalAmount represents an amount of time, which may be date-based or time-based, which this factory extracts to a Days.

      The result is calculated by looping around each unit in the specified amount. Each amount is converted to days using Temporals.convertAmount(long, java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit, java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit). If the conversion yields a remainder, an exception is thrown. If the amount is zero, the unit is ignored.

      Parameters:
      amount - the temporal amount to convert, not null
      Returns:
      the equivalent amount, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeException - if unable to convert to a Days
      ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs
    • parse

      public static Days parse(CharSequence text)
      Obtains a Days from a text string such as PnD.

      This will parse the string produced by toString() which is based on the ISO-8601 period formats PnD and PnW.

      The string starts with an optional sign, denoted by the ASCII negative or positive symbol. If negative, the whole amount is negated. The ASCII letter "P" is next in upper or lower case. There are then two sections, each consisting of a number and a suffix. At least one of the two sections must be present. The sections have suffixes in ASCII of "W" and "D" for weeks and days, accepted in upper or lower case. The suffixes must occur in order. The number part of each section must consist of ASCII digits. The number may be prefixed by the ASCII negative or positive symbol. The number must parse to an int.

      The leading plus/minus sign, and negative values for weeks and days are not part of the ISO-8601 standard.

      For example, the following are valid inputs:

         "P2D"             -- Days.of(2)
         "P-2D"            -- Days.of(-2)
         "-P2D"            -- Days.of(-2)
         "-P-2D"           -- Days.of(2)
         "P3W"             -- Days.of(3 * 7)
         "P3W-2D"          -- Days.of(3 * 7 - 2)
       
      Parameters:
      text - the text to parse, not null
      Returns:
      the parsed period, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeParseException - if the text cannot be parsed to a period
    • between

      public static Days between(Temporal startDateInclusive, Temporal endDateExclusive)
      Obtains a Days consisting of the number of days between two dates.

      The start date is included, but the end date is not. The result of this method can be negative if the end is before the start.

      Parameters:
      startDateInclusive - the start date, inclusive, not null
      endDateExclusive - the end date, exclusive, not null
      Returns:
      the number of days between this date and the end date, not null
