Class BaseTimeMsecExpression

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Destroyable, GlobalInfoSupporter, LoggingLevelHandler, LoggingSupporter, OptionHandler, SizeOfHandler, GrammarSupplier, Serializable
    public class BaseTimeMsecExpression
extends AbstractExpressionEvaluator<Date>
implements GrammarSupplier
    Evaluates time expressions.

    Format:
    (<date>|NOW|-INF|+INF|START|END) [expr (SECOND|MINUTE|HOUR)]*
    expr ::= ( expr )
    | - expr
    | + expr
    | expr + expr
    | expr - expr
    | expr * expr
    | expr / expr
    | expr % expr
    | expr ^ expr
    | abs ( expr )
    | sqrt ( expr )
    | log ( expr )
    | exp ( expr )
    | rint ( expr )
    | floor ( expr )
    | pow[er] ( expr , expr )
    | ceil ( expr )
    | NUMBER


    Examples:
    01:02:03
    01:02:03 +1 MINUTE
    NOW
    +INF
    NOW +1 HOUR
    NOW +14 MINUTE
    NOW +(2*3) MINUTE

    Amounts can be chained as well:
    NOW -1 MINUTE +1 HOUR

    START and END can only be set programmatically; by default they are equal to -INF and +INF.

    Valid options are: 

    -logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
    The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
    default: WARNING
 
    -env <java.lang.String> (property: environment)
    The class to use for determining the environment.
    default: adams.env.Environment
 
    -expression <java.lang.String> (property: expression)
    The boolean expression to evaluate (must evaluate to a boolean).
    default: NOW
