Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
PeriodBuilder	getFixedUnitBuilder(TimeUnit unit) Returns a builder that represents durations in terms of the single given TimeUnit.
PeriodBuilder	getMultiUnitBuilder(int unitCount) Returns a builder that formats up to the given number of time units, starting with the largest unit less than or equal to the duration.
PeriodBuilder	getOneOrTwoUnitBuilder() Returns a builder that formats the largest one or two time units, starting with the largest period less than or equal to the duration.
PeriodBuilder	getSingleUnitBuilder() Returns a builder that represents durations in terms of the single largest period less than or equal to the duration.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setAllowMilliseconds(boolean allow) Sets whether milliseconds are allowed.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setAllowZero(boolean allow) Sets whether units with a value of zero are represented in a period when 'gaps' appear between time units, e.g.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setAvailableUnitRange(TimeUnit minUnit, TimeUnit maxUnit) Sets the time units available for use.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setLocale(String localeName) Sets the locale for the factory.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setMaxLimit(float maxLimit) Sets the maximum value for the largest available time unit (as set in setUnits).
PeriodBuilderFactory	setMinLimit(float minLimit) Sets the minimum value for the smallest available time unit (as set in setUnits).
PeriodBuilderFactory	setTimeZone(TimeZone timeZone) Sets the time zone for the factory.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setUnitIsAvailable(TimeUnit unit, boolean available) Sets whether the time unit is available for use.
PeriodBuilderFactory	setWeeksAloneOnly(boolean aloneOnly) Sets whether weeks are used with other units, or only when weeks are the only unit.

Method Detail

setAvailableUnitRange

PeriodBuilderFactory setAvailableUnitRange(TimeUnit minUnit,
                                           TimeUnit maxUnit)

Sets the time units available for use. Default is all units.

Parameters:

minUnit - the smallest time unit available for use

maxUnit - the largest time unit available for use

Returns:

this factory

setUnitIsAvailable

PeriodBuilderFactory setUnitIsAvailable(TimeUnit unit,
                                        boolean available)

Sets whether the time unit is available for use.

Parameters:

unit - the time unit

available - true if the unit is available for use

Returns:

this factory

setMaxLimit

PeriodBuilderFactory setMaxLimit(float maxLimit)

Sets the maximum value for the largest available time unit (as set in setUnits). Periods that represent a longer duration than this will be pinned to this value of that time unit and return true for 'isMoreThan'. Default is no limit. Setting a value of zero restores the default.

setMinLimit

PeriodBuilderFactory setMinLimit(float minLimit)

Sets the minimum value for the smallest available time unit (as set in setUnits). Periods that represent a shorter duration than this will be pinned to this value of that time unit and return true for 'isLessThan'. Default is no limit. Setting a value of zero restores the default.

setAllowZero

PeriodBuilderFactory setAllowZero(boolean allow)

Sets whether units with a value of zero are represented in a period when 'gaps' appear between time units, e.g. '2 hours, 0 minutes, and 33 seconds'. Default is to not represent these explicitly ('2 hours and 33 seconds').

setWeeksAloneOnly

PeriodBuilderFactory setWeeksAloneOnly(boolean aloneOnly)

Sets whether weeks are used with other units, or only when weeks are the only unit. For example '3 weeks and 2 days' versus '23 days'. Default is to use them alone only.

setAllowMilliseconds

PeriodBuilderFactory setAllowMilliseconds(boolean allow)

Sets whether milliseconds are allowed. This is only examined when milliseconds are an available field. The default is to allow milliseconds to display normally.

This is intended to be used to set locale-specific behavior. Typically clients will not call this API and instead call PeriodBuilderFactory.setLocale(java.lang.String).

Parameters:

allow - whether milliseconds should be allowed.

Returns:

a builder

setLocale

PeriodBuilderFactory setLocale(String localeName)

Sets the locale for the factory. Setting the locale can adjust the values for some or all of the other properties to reflect language or cultural conventions. Default is to use the default locale.

setTimeZone

PeriodBuilderFactory setTimeZone(TimeZone timeZone)

Sets the time zone for the factory. This can affect the timezone used for date computations.

Parameters:

timeZone - the timeZone

Returns:

a builder

getFixedUnitBuilder

PeriodBuilder getFixedUnitBuilder(TimeUnit unit)

Returns a builder that represents durations in terms of the single given TimeUnit. If the factory settings don't make the given unit available, this will return null.

Parameters:

unit - the single TimeUnit with which to represent times

Returns:

a builder

getSingleUnitBuilder

PeriodBuilder getSingleUnitBuilder()

Returns a builder that represents durations in terms of the single largest period less than or equal to the duration.

Returns:

a builder

getOneOrTwoUnitBuilder

PeriodBuilder getOneOrTwoUnitBuilder()

Returns a builder that formats the largest one or two time units, starting with the largest period less than or equal to the duration. It formats two periods if the first period has a count < 2 and the next period has a count >= 1.

Returns:

a builder

getMultiUnitBuilder

PeriodBuilder getMultiUnitBuilder(int unitCount)

Returns a builder that formats up to the given number of time units, starting with the largest unit less than or equal to the duration.

Returns:

a builder
