Class DateTimeValue

All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<XPathComparable>, Iterable<AtomicValue>, TemporalAccessor, AtomicMatchKey, XPathComparable, AtomicSequence, GroundedValue, IdentityComparable, Item, Sequence, ConversionResult

public final class DateTimeValue extends CalendarValue implements XPathComparable, TemporalAccessor
A value of type xs:dateTime. This contains integer fields year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and nanosecond. All these fields except year must be non-negative. In the internal representation, the sequence of years runs -2, -1, 0, +1, +2: that is, the year before year 1 is year 0.

The value also contains a boolean flag hasNoYearZero. When this flag is set, accessor methods that expose the year value subtract one if it is non-positive: that is, year 0 is displayed as -1, year -1 as -2, and so on. Constructor methods, unless otherwise specified, do not set this flag.

From Saxon 9.9, this class implements the Java 8 interface TemporalAccessor which enables it to interoperate with Java 8 temporal classes such as Instant and ZonedDateTime.

    • EPOCH

      public static final DateTimeValue EPOCH
      Fixed date/time used by Java (and Unix) as the origin of the universe: 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
  • Constructor Details

    • DateTimeValue

      public DateTimeValue(int year, byte month, byte day, byte hour, byte minute, byte second, int nanosecond, boolean hasNoYearZero, int tzMinutes, AtomicType typeLabel)
    • DateTimeValue

      public DateTimeValue(int year, byte month, byte day, byte hour, byte minute, byte second, int nanosecond, int tz)
      Constructor: construct a DateTimeValue from its components. This constructor performs no validation.

      Note: this constructor accepts the fractional seconds value to nanosecond precision. It creates a DateTimeValue that follows XSD 1.1 conventions: that is, there is a year zero. This can be changed by setting the hasNoYearZero property.

      Parameters:
      year - The year (the year before year 1 is year 0)
      month - The month, 1-12
      day - The day 1-31
      hour - the hour value, 0-23
      minute - the minutes value, 0-59
      second - the seconds value, 0-59
      nanosecond - the number of nanoseconds, 0-999_999_999
      tz - the timezone displacement in minutes from UTC. Supply the value CalendarValue.NO_TIMEZONE if there is no timezone component.
    • DateTimeValue

      public DateTimeValue(int year, byte month, byte day, byte hour, byte minute, byte second, int microsecond, int tz, boolean hasNoYearZero)
      Constructor: construct a DateTimeValue from its components. This constructor performs no validation.

      Note: for historic reasons, this constructor accepts the fractional seconds value only to microsecond precision. To get nanosecond precision, use the 8-argument constructor and set the XSD 1.0 option separately

      Parameters:
      year - The year as held internally (so the year before year 1 is year 0)
      month - The month, 1-12
      day - The day 1-31
      hour - the hour value, 0-23
      minute - the minutes value, 0-59
      second - the seconds value, 0-59
      microsecond - the number of microseconds, 0-999999
      tz - the timezone displacement in minutes from UTC. Supply the value CalendarValue.NO_TIMEZONE if there is no timezone component.
      hasNoYearZero - true if the dateTime value should behave under XSD 1.0 rules, that is, negative dates assume there is no year zero. Note that regardless of this setting, the year argument is set on the basis that the year before +1 is supplied as zero; but if the hasNoYearZero flag is set, this value will be displayed with a year of -1, and will return -1
  • Method Details

    • getCurrentDateTime

      public static DateTimeValue getCurrentDateTime(XPathContext context)
      Get the dateTime value representing the nominal date/time of this transformation run. Two calls within the same query or transformation will always return the same answer.

      Throws:
      XPathException - if the timezones are both present and inconsistent
    • makeDateTimeValue

      public static ConversionResult makeDateTimeValue(UnicodeString s, ConversionRules rules)
      Factory method: create a dateTime value from a supplied string, in ISO 8601 format.

      public GregorianCalendar getCalendar()
      Get a Java Calendar object representing the value of this DateTime. This will respect the timezone if there is one (provided the timezone is within the range supported by the GregorianCalendar class, which in practice means that it is not -14:00). If there is no timezone or if the timezone is out of range, the result will be in GMT.
      Specified by:
      getCalendar in class CalendarValue
      Returns:
      a Java GregorianCalendar object representing the value of this xs:dateTime value.

      Convert to string
      Specified by:
      getPrimitiveStringValue in class AtomicValue
      Returns:
      ISO 8601 representation. The value returned is the localized representation: that is it uses the timezone contained within the value itself. In the case of a year earlier than year 1, the value output is the internally-held year, unless the hasNoYearZero flag is set, in which case it is the internal year minus one.

    • isSupported

      public boolean isSupported(TemporalField field)
      Specified by:
      isSupported in interface TemporalAccessor
    • getLong

      public long getLong(TemporalField field)
      Gets the value of the specified field as a long.

      This queries the date-time for the value of the specified field. The returned value may be outside the valid range of values for the field. If the date-time cannot return the value, because the field is unsupported or for some other reason, an exception will be thrown.

      The specification requires some fields (for example ChronoField.EPOCH_DAY to reflect the local time. The Saxon implementation does not have access to the local time, so it adjusts to UTC instead.

      Specified by:
      getLong in interface TemporalAccessor
      Parameters:
      field - the field to get, not null
      Returns:
      the value for the field
      Throws:
      DateTimeException - if a value for the field cannot be obtained
      UnsupportedTemporalTypeException - if the field is not supported
      ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs

      Note: Implementations must check and handle all fields defined in ChronoField. If the field is supported, then the value of the field must be returned. If unsupported, then an UnsupportedTemporalTypeException must be thrown.

      If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument.

      Implementations must ensure that no observable state is altered when this read-only method is invoked.

    • compareTo

      public int compareTo(CalendarValue other, int implicitTimezone) throws NoDynamicContextException
      Compare the value to another dateTime value, following the XPath comparison semantics
      Specified by:
      compareTo in class CalendarValue
      Parameters:
      other - The other dateTime value
      implicitTimezone - The implicit timezone to be used for a value with no timezone
      Returns:
      negative value if this one is the earler, 0 if they are chronologically equal, positive value if this one is the later. For this purpose, dateTime values with an unknown timezone are considered to be values in the implicit timezone (the Comparable interface requires a total ordering).
      Throws:
      ClassCastException - if the other value is not a DateTimeValue (the parameter is declared as CalendarValue to satisfy the interface)
      NoDynamicContextException - if the implicit timezone is needed and is not available
    • getXPathComparable

      public XPathComparable getXPathComparable(StringCollator collator, int implicitTimezone) throws NoDynamicContextException
      Description copied from class: AtomicValue
      Get an object value that implements the XPath equality and ordering comparison semantics for this value. A collation is supplied for comparing strings, and an implicit timezone for comparing date/time values that have no saved timezone. An atomic value may return itself as the result, provided that its ordering rules are independent of the collation and timezone, and provided that it implements the XPathComparable interface: which means that its compareTo, equals, and hashCode methods must be compatible with the rules for XPath value comparisons.
      Overrides:
      getXPathComparable in class CalendarValue
      Parameters:
      collator - the collation to be used when comparing strings
      implicitTimezone - the implicit timezone in the dynamic context, used when comparing dates/times with and without timezone
      Returns:
      an Object that implements the XPath value comparison semantics with respect to this atomic value. For an atomic type that is not ordered (according to XPath rules), return null.
      Throws:
      NoDynamicContextException - if the supplied implicit timezone is "NO_TIMEZONE" (meaning unknown), and the implicit timezone is actually required because the value in question is a date/time value with no timezone. This can cause a failure to evaluate expressions statically (because the implicit timezone is not known statically), and it will then be caught, meaning that the expression has to be evaluated dynamically.
    • compareTo

      public int compareTo(XPathComparable v2)
      Context-free comparison of two DateTimeValue values. For this to work, the two values must either both have a timezone or both have none.
      Specified by:
      compareTo in interface Comparable<XPathComparable>
      Parameters:
      v2 - the other value
      Returns:
      the result of the comparison: -1 if the first is earlier, 0 if they are equal, +1 if the first is later
      Throws:
      ClassCastException - if the values are not comparable (which might be because no timezone is available)
    • getSchemaComparable

      public DateTimeValue.DateTimeComparable getSchemaComparable()
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object o)
      Context-free comparison of two dateTime values
      Overrides:
      equals in class AtomicValue
      Parameters:
      o - the other date time value
      Returns:
      true if the two values represent the same instant in time. Return false if one value has a timezone and the other does not (this is the result needed when using keys in a map, and also the result needed for XSD comparisons for example in enumeration facets and identity constraints)
    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Hash code for context-free comparison of date time values. Note that equality testing and therefore hashCode() works only for values with a timezone
