Enum Constant Detail

PUSH_FORWARD

public static final GapResolver PUSH_FORWARD

Default strategy which moves an invalid local time by the length of the gap into the future.

Example for the switch to summer time in the timezone "Europe/Berlin": 2015-03-29T02:30+01:00 => 2015-03-29T03:30+02:00

NEXT_VALID_TIME

public static final GapResolver NEXT_VALID_TIME

Alternative strategy which moves an invalid local time forward to the first valid time after transition.

Example for the switch to summer time in the timezone "Europe/Berlin": 2015-03-29T02:30+01:00 => 2015-03-29T03:00+02:00

ABORT

public static final GapResolver ABORT

Strict strategy which rejects an invalid local time by throwing an exception.

Method Detail

values

public static GapResolver[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (GapResolver c : GapResolver.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static GapResolver valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

and

public TransitionStrategy and(OverlapResolver overlapResolver)

Yields a transition strategy as combination of given overlap resolver and this instance.

Parameters:

overlapResolver - strategy how to handle overlaps on the local timeline

Returns:

transition strategy for handling gaps and overlaps
