public class Duration extends Object implements Comparable<Duration>, Serializable
A class that defines a duration of time. Duration instances are immutable,
and are therefore replaced rather than modified, similar to BigDecimal
.
Durations can be created using the constructor, or one of the static construction
methods such as seconds(double)
or minutes(double)
.

add
Add this instance and another Duration instance to return a new Duration instance. If either instance is INDEFINITE, return INDEFINITE. If either instance is UNKNOWN, return UNKNOWN. This method does not change the value of the called Duration instance.- Parameters:
other
- must not be null- Returns:
- the result of adding this duration to the other duration. This is the same as millis + other.millis using double arithmetic
-
subtract
Subtract other Duration instance from this instance to return a new Duration instance. If either instance is UNKNOWN, return UNKNOWN. Otherwise, if either instance is INDEFINITE, return INDEFINITE. This method does not change the value of the called Duration instance.- Parameters:
other
- must not be null- Returns:
- the result of subtracting the other duration from this duration. This is the same as millis - other.millis using double arithmetic
-

- must not be null- Returns:
- the result of dividing this duration by the other duration. This is the same as millis / other.millis using double arithmetic
-
negate
Return a new Duration instance which has a negative number of milliseconds from this instance. For example,Duration.millis(50).negate()

-
isUnknown
public boolean isUnknown()Gets whether this Duration instance is Unknown. A Duration is Unknown if it equals Duration.UNKNOWN.- Returns:
- true if this Duration is equivalent to Duration.UNKNOWN or Double.isNaN(millis)
-

Returns true if the specified duration is less than or equal to (<=) this instance. INDEFINITE is treated as if it were positive infinity.- Parameters:
other
- cannot be null- Returns:
- true if millis <= other.millis using double arithmetic
-
greaterThan
Returns true if the specified duration is greater than (>) this instance. INDEFINITE is treated as if it were positive infinity.- Parameters:
other

Returns a string representation of thisDuration
object. -
compareTo
Compares durations represented by this object and the specified object. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this duration is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified duration.- Specified by:
compareTo
in interfaceComparable<Duration>
- Parameters:
d
- the duration to be compared.- Returns:
- a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this duration is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified duration.
