Method Detail

encode

public void encode(byte[] buffer,
                   int offset)

Encodes the logical time interval to a transportable format.

Parameters:

buffer - The serialized logical time interval

offset - Start position in the destination data

encodedLength

public int encodedLength()

Returns the length of the encoded logical time interval.

Returns:

Length of encoded time interval.

isEpsilon

public boolean isEpsilon()

Check is time interval is epsilon

Returns:

True if the interval is epsilon, false otherwise.

isEqualTo

public boolean isEqualTo(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Checks if times interval are equal in length.

Parameters:

value - Interval to compare with.

Returns:

True if equal, false if not.

isGreaterThan

public boolean isGreaterThan(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Compares if the interval is longer than another interval.

Parameters:

value - The logical time interval to compare with.

Returns:

True if interval is longer than the supplied interval. False if not.

isGreaterThanOrEqualTo

public boolean isGreaterThanOrEqualTo(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Compares if the interval is longer or equal to to another interval.

Parameters:

value - The logical time interval to compare with.

Returns:

True if time is longer or equal to the supplied interval. False if not.

isLessThan

public boolean isLessThan(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Compares if the interval is shorter than another interval.

Parameters:

value - The logical time interval to compare with.

Returns:

True if interval is shorter than the supplied interval. False if not.

isLessThanOrEqualTo

public boolean isLessThanOrEqualTo(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Compares if the interval is shorter or equal to to another interval.

Parameters:

value - The logical time interval to compare with.

Returns:

True if time is shorter or equal to the supplied interval. False if not.

isZero

public boolean isZero()

Check is the interval is zero.

Parameters:

value - Logical time interval

Returns:

True if interval is zero, false otherwise.

setEpsilon

public void setEpsilon()

Sets the interval to epsilon.

setTo

public void setTo(LogicalTimeInterval value)

Sets the interval to the specified length.

Parameters:

value - Logical Time Interval

setZero

public void setZero()

Sets the interval to zero.
