XMLGregorianCalendar

public abstract class XMLGregorianCalendar extends Object implements Cloneable

Representation for W3C XML Schema 1.0 date/time datatypes. Specifically, these date/time datatypes are {@link DatatypeConstants#DATETIME}, {@link DatatypeConstants#TIME}, {@link DatatypeConstants#DATE}, {@link DatatypeConstants#GYEARMONTH}, {@link DatatypeConstants#GMONTHDAY}, {@link DatatypeConstants#GYEAR}, {@link DatatypeConstants#GMONTH}, and {@link DatatypeConstants#GDAY} defined in the XML Namespace "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema". These datatypes are normatively defined in W3C XML Schema 1.0 Part 2, Section 3.2.7-14.

The table below defines the mapping between XML Schema 1.0 date/time datatype fields and this class' fields. It also summarizes the value constraints for the date and time fields defined in W3C XML Schema 1.0 Part 2, Appendix D, ISO 8601 Date and Time Formats.

XMLGregorianCalendar
Accessor(s)
Value Range
year {@link #getYear()} + {@link #getEon()} or
{@link #getEonAndYear}
getYear() is a value between -(10^9-1) to (10^9)-1 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}.
{@link #getEon()} is high order year value in billion of years.
getEon() has values greater than or equal to (10^9) or less than or equal to -(10^9). A value of null indicates field is undefined.
Given that XML Schema 1.0 errata states that the year zero will be a valid lexical value in a future version of XML Schema, this class allows the year field to be set to zero. Otherwise, the year field value is handled exactly as described in the errata and [ISO-8601-1988]. Note that W3C XML Schema 1.0 validation does not allow for the year field to have a value of zero.
month {@link #getMonth()} 1 to 12 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}
day {@link #getDay()} Independent of month, max range is 1 to 31 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}.
The normative value constraint stated relative to month field's value is in W3C XML Schema 1.0 Part 2, Appendix D.
hour {@link #getHour()} 0 to 24 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}. For a value of 24, the minute and second field must be zero per XML Schema Errata.
minute {@link #getMinute()} 0 to 59 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}
second {@link #getSecond()} + {@link #getMillisecond()}/1000 or
{@link #getSecond()} + {@link #getFractionalSecond()}
{@link #getSecond()} from 0 to 60 or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}.
(Note: 60 only allowable for leap second.)
{@link #getFractionalSecond()} allows for infinite precision over the range from 0.0 to 1.0 when the {@link #getSecond()} is defined.
FractionalSecond is optional and has a value of null when it is undefined.
{@link #getMillisecond()} is the convenience millisecond precision of value of {@link #getFractionalSecond()}.
timezone {@link #getTimezone()} Number of minutes or {@link DatatypeConstants#FIELD_UNDEFINED}. Value range from -14 hours (-14 * 60 minutes) to 14 hours (14 * 60 minutes).

All maximum value space constraints listed for the fields in the table above are checked by factory methods, @{link DatatypeFactory}, setter methods and parse methods of this class. IllegalArgumentException is thrown when a parameter's value is outside the value constraint for the field or if the composite values constitute an invalid XMLGregorianCalendar instance (for example, if the 31st of June is specified).

The following operations are defined for this class:

public abstract java.util.GregorianCalendartoGregorianCalendar()

Convert this XMLGregorianCalendar to a {@link GregorianCalendar}.

When this instance has an undefined field, this conversion relies on the java.util.GregorianCalendar default for its corresponding field. A notable difference between XML Schema 1.0 date/time datatypes and java.util.GregorianCalendar is that Timezone value is optional for date/time datatypes and it is a required field for java.util.GregorianCalendar. See javadoc for java.util.TimeZone.getDefault() on how the default is determined. To explicitly specify the TimeZone instance, see {@link #toGregorianCalendar(TimeZone, Locale, XMLGregorianCalendar)}.

* designates possible loss of precision during the conversion due to source datatype having higher precision than target datatype.

To ensure consistency in conversion implementations, the new GregorianCalendar should be instantiated in following manner.

  • Using timeZone value as defined above, create a new java.util.GregorianCalendar(timeZone,Locale.getDefault()).
  • Initialize all GregorianCalendar fields by calling {@link java.util.GregorianCalendar#clear()}.
  • Obtain a pure Gregorian Calendar by invoking GregorianCalendar.setGregorianChange( new Date(Long.MIN_VALUE)).
  • Its fields ERA, YEAR, MONTH, DAY_OF_MONTH, HOUR_OF_DAY, MINUTE, SECOND and MILLISECOND are set using the method Calendar.set(int,int)

see
#toGregorianCalendar(java.util.TimeZone, java.util.Locale, XMLGregorianCalendar)

public abstract java.util.GregorianCalendartoGregorianCalendar(java.util.TimeZone timezone, java.util.Locale aLocale, javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar defaults)

Convert this XMLGregorianCalendar along with provided parameters to a {@link GregorianCalendar} instance.

Since XML Schema 1.0 date/time datetypes has no concept of timezone ids or daylight savings timezone ids, this conversion operation allows the user to explicitly specify one with timezone parameter.

To compute the return value's TimeZone field,

  • when parameter timeZone is non-null, it is the timezone field.
  • else when this.getTimezone() != FIELD_UNDEFINED, create a java.util.TimeZone with a custom timezone id using the this.getTimezone().
  • else when defaults.getTimezone() != FIELD_UNDEFINED, create a java.util.TimeZone with a custom timezone id using defaults.getTimezone().
  • else use the GregorianCalendar default timezone value for the host is defined as specified by java.util.TimeZone.getDefault().
  • To ensure consistency in conversion implementations, the new GregorianCalendar should be instantiated in following manner.

    • Create a new java.util.GregorianCalendar(TimeZone, Locale) with TimeZone set as specified above and the Locale parameter.
    • Initialize all GregorianCalendar fields by calling {@link GregorianCalendar#clear()}
    • Obtain a pure Gregorian Calendar by invoking GregorianCalendar.setGregorianChange( new Date(Long.MIN_VALUE)).
    • Its fields ERA, YEAR, MONTH, DAY_OF_MONTH, HOUR_OF_DAY, MINUTE, SECOND and MILLISECOND are set using the method Calendar.set(int,int)

    param
    timezone provide Timezone. null is a legal value.
    param
    aLocale provide explicit Locale. Use default GregorianCalendar locale if value is null.
    param
    defaults provide default field values to use when corresponding field for this instance is FIELD_UNDEFINED or null. If defaultsis null or a field within the specified defaults is undefined, just use java.util.GregorianCalendar defaults.
    return
    a java.util.GregorianCalendar conversion of this instance.

public java.lang.StringtoString()

Returns a String representation of this XMLGregorianCalendar Object.

The result is a lexical representation generated by {@link #toXMLFormat()}.

return
