Method Detail

fromCalendar

protected abstract java.util.Calendar fromCalendar(java.util.Date referenceDate,
                                                   java.util.TimeZone timeZone)

Provide a Calendar for the start of the constraint.

Parameters:

referenceDate - The date/time now.

timeZone - The time zone.

Returns:

A calendar for the from time.

toCalendar

protected abstract java.util.Calendar toCalendar(java.util.Date referenceDate,
                                                 java.util.TimeZone timeZone)

Provide a Calendar for the end of the constraint.

Parameters:

referenceDate - The date/time now.

timeZone - The time zone.

Returns:

A calendar for the end time.

intervalBetween

protected abstract CalendarUnit intervalBetween()

Sub classes must provide a unit which is what must be added to move the schedule on. I.e. the equivalent of a day, week, month etc.

Returns:

nextInterval

protected final Interval nextInterval(ScheduleContext context)

Calculate the next interval, without children.

Parameters:

context -

Returns:

lastInterval

protected final Interval lastInterval(ScheduleContext context)

Calculate the last interval.

Parameters:

context -

Returns:

shiftFromCalendar

protected java.util.Calendar shiftFromCalendar(java.util.Calendar calendar,
                                               int intervals)

Shift the from Calendar by an interval. The subclass fromCalendar is used to re-adjust the shifted calendar. This is needed in at least these situations:

• A yearly schedule for the month of February that returned a toDate in the year before a leap year of the 28th would shift to the 28th as the last day of February in the leap year without re-adjustment.
• A last day of the month schedule that returned 28th in February would shift to the 28th of March without re-adjustment.

Parameters:

calendar -

interval. -

Returns:

shiftToCalendar

protected java.util.Calendar shiftToCalendar(java.util.Calendar calendar,
                                             int intervals)

Shift the to Calendar by an interval. The subclass toCalendar is used to re-adjust the shifted calendar for the reasons given in shiftFromCalendar(Calendar, int)

Parameters:

calendar -

intervals -

Returns:

nextDue

public ScheduleResult nextDue(ScheduleContext context)

Description copied from interface: Schedule

For a given date a schedule will provide the interval this schedule should next be scheduled in.

If the schedule is never due again for the given date, null is returned.

Returns:

The next due interval for the schedule.

toString

public abstract java.lang.String toString()

Force sub classes to override toString.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

A description of the schedule.
