Method Detail

getAbsWeekNo

public static int getAbsWeekNo(Date date,
                               int weekNo)

Deprecated.

Returns the absolute week number for the year specified by the supplied date. Note that a value of zero (0) is invalid for the weekNo parameter and an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters:

date - a date instance representing a week of the year

weekNo - a week number offset

Returns:

the absolute week of the year for the specified offset

getAbsYearDay

public static int getAbsYearDay(Date date,
                                int yearDay)

Deprecated.

Returns the absolute year day for the year specified by the supplied date. Note that a value of zero (0) is invalid for the yearDay parameter and an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters:

date - a date instance representing a day of the year

yearDay - a day of year offset

Returns:

the absolute day of month for the specified offset

getAbsMonthDay

public static int getAbsMonthDay(Date date,
                                 int monthDay)

Deprecated.

Returns the absolute month day for the month specified by the supplied date. Note that a value of zero (0) is invalid for the monthDay parameter and an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters:

date - a date instance representing a day of the month

monthDay - a day of month offset

Returns:

the absolute day of month for the specified offset

getInstance

public static Date getInstance(Date date,
                               Value type)

Deprecated.

Returns a new date instance of the specified type. If no type is specified a DateTime instance is returned.

Parameters:

date - a seed Java date instance

type - the type of date instance

Returns:

an instance of net.fortuna.ical4j.model.Date

getCalendarInstance

public static Calendar getCalendarInstance(Date date)

Deprecated.

Returns an instance of java.util.Calendar that is suitably initialised for working with the specified date.

Parameters:

date - a date instance

Returns:

a java.util.Calendar

round

public static long round(long time,
                         int precision)

Deprecated. It is not all that useful to perform rounding without specifying an explicit timezone.

Parameters:

time - the time value to round

precision - the rounding precision

Returns:

a round time value

round

public static long round(long time,
                         int precision,
                         TimeZone tz)

Deprecated.

Rounds a time value to remove any precision smaller than specified.

Parameters:

time - the time value to round

precision - the rounding precision

tz - the timezone of the rounded value

Returns:

a round time value

getCurrentTimeRounded

public static long getCurrentTimeRounded()

Deprecated.

Returns the System.currentTimeMillis(), rounded to the second.

By doing a rough rounding here, we avoid an expensive java.util.Calendar based rounding later on.

Returns:

the current time in millisec.
