All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class TimeRange

extends Object

implements Serializable

Time Range type. A TimeRange specifies a range of time starting at the Begin time and ending at the End time. A time range can be also be created by specifying a time interval e.g. create a time range from starting now and ending in ten minutes. It is valid for the time range to go backwards. i.e. the begin time can be after the end time.

XML Serialization

Time Range instances can be serialized as an XML document. This XML document can also be used to recreate a Time Range object. The following XML document shows an example Time Range in XML form.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<core:TimeRange xmlns:core="http://xmlns.oracle.com/irm/core">
<begin>2007-01-01T12:00:00.000+01:00</begin>
<end>2007-01-01T13:00:00.000+01:00</end>
