ZoneOffsetTransitionRule

public final class ZoneOffsetTransitionRule extends Object
implements Serializable

A rule expressing how to create a transition.

This class allows rules for identifying future transitions to be expressed. A rule might be written in many forms:

  • the 16th March
  • the Sunday on or after the 16th March
  • the Sunday on or before the 16th March
  • the last Sunday in February
These different rule types can be expressed and queried.

Inherited Method Summary

Public Methods

public ZoneOffsetTransition createTransition (int year)

Creates a transition instance for the specified year.

Calculations are performed using the ISO-8601 chronology.

Parameters
year the year to create a transition for, not null
Returns
  • the transition instance, not null

public boolean equals (Object otherRule)

Checks if this object equals another.

The entire state of the object is compared.

Parameters
otherRule the other object to compare to, null returns false
Returns
  • true if equal

public int getDayOfMonthIndicator ()

Gets the indicator of the day-of-month of the transition.

If the rule defines an exact date then the day is the month of that date.

If the rule defines a week where the transition might occur, then the day defines either the start of the end of the transition week.

If the value is positive, then it represents a normal day-of-month, and is the earliest possible date that the transition can be. The date may refer to 29th February which should be treated as 1st March in non-leap years.

If the value is negative, then it represents the number of days back from the end of the month where -1 is the last day of the month. In this case, the day identified is the latest possible date that the transition can be.

Returns
  • the day-of-month indicator, from -28 to 31 excluding 0

public DayOfWeek getDayOfWeek ()

Gets the day-of-week of the transition.

If the rule defines an exact date then this returns null.

If the rule defines a week where the cutover might occur, then this method returns the day-of-week that the month-day will be adjusted to. If the day is positive then the adjustment is later. If the day is negative then the adjustment is earlier.

Returns
  • the day-of-week that the transition occurs, null if the rule defines an exact date

public LocalTime getLocalTime ()

Gets the local time of day of the transition which must be checked with isMidnightEndOfDay().

The time is converted into an instant using the time definition.

Returns
  • the local time of day of the transition, not null

public Month getMonth ()

Gets the month of the transition.

If the rule defines an exact date then the month is the month of that date.

If the rule defines a week where the transition might occur, then the month if the month of either the earliest or latest possible date of the cutover.

Returns
  • the month of the transition, not null

public ZoneOffset getOffsetAfter ()

Gets the offset after the transition.

Returns
  • the offset after, not null

public ZoneOffset getOffsetBefore ()

Gets the offset before the transition.

Returns
  • the offset before, not null

public ZoneOffset getStandardOffset ()

Gets the standard offset in force at the transition.

Returns
  • the standard offset, not null

public ZoneOffsetTransitionRule.TimeDefinition getTimeDefinition ()

Gets the time definition, specifying how to convert the time to an instant.

The local time can be converted to an instant using the standard offset, the wall offset or UTC.

Returns
  • the time definition, not null

public int hashCode ()

Returns a suitable hash code.

Returns
  • the hash code

public boolean isMidnightEndOfDay ()

Is the transition local time midnight at the end of day.

The transition may be represented as occurring at 24:00.

Returns
  • whether a local time of midnight is at the start or end of the day

public static ZoneOffsetTransitionRule of (Month month, int dayOfMonthIndicator, DayOfWeek dayOfWeek, LocalTime time, boolean timeEndOfDay, ZoneOffsetTransitionRule.TimeDefinition timeDefnition, ZoneOffset standardOffset, ZoneOffset offsetBefore, ZoneOffset offsetAfter)

Obtains an instance defining the yearly rule to create transitions between two offsets.

Applications should normally obtain an instance from ZoneRules. This factory is only intended for use when creating ZoneRules.

Parameters
month the month of the month-day of the first day of the cutover week, not null
dayOfMonthIndicator the day of the month-day of the cutover week, positive if the week is that day or later, negative if the week is that day or earlier, counting from the last day of the month, from -28 to 31 excluding 0
dayOfWeek the required day-of-week, null if the month-day should not be changed
time the cutover time in the 'before' offset, not null
timeEndOfDay whether the time is midnight at the end of day
timeDefnition how to interpret the cutover
standardOffset the standard offset in force at the cutover, not null
offsetBefore the offset before the cutover, not null
offsetAfter the offset after the cutover, not null
Returns
  • the rule, not null
Throws
IllegalArgumentException if the day of month indicator is invalid
IllegalArgumentException if the end of day flag is true when the time is not midnight

public String toString ()

Returns a string describing this object.

Returns
  • a string for debugging, not null
