public DateValue(Calendar date)

Constructs a DateValue object representing a date.

Parameters:

date - the date this DateValue should represent

Method Detail

valueOf

public static DateValue valueOf(String s)
                         throws ValueFormatException

Returns a new DateValue initialized to the value represented by the specified String.

The specified String must be a ISO8601-compliant date/time string.

Parameters:

s - the string to be parsed.

Returns:

a newly constructed DateValue representing the the specified value.

Throws:

ValueFormatException - If the String is not a valid ISO8601-compliant date/time string.

ISO8601

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a DateValue object that represents the same value as this object.

Parameters:

obj - the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns zero to satisfy the Object equals/hashCode contract. This class is mutable and not meant to be used as a hash key.

Returns:

always zero

Object.hashCode()

getInternalString

protected String getInternalString()
                            throws ValueFormatException

Returns the internal string representation of this value without modifying the value state.

Specified by:

getInternalString in class BaseValue

Returns:

the internal string representation

Throws:

ValueFormatException - if the value can not be represented as a String or if the value is null.
