Constructor Detail

SimpleInterval

public SimpleInterval(SimpleAllenInterval sai)

Builds a zero-length time interval (start = stop = 0).

Method Detail

getIntervalName

public java.lang.String getIntervalName()

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Compares two time intervals, returning true iff their start and end times coincide.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

True iff the two intervals coincide and the argument is also an SimpleInterval.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns A String representation of the SimpleInterval.

Specified by:

toString in class Domain

Returns:

A String describing the SimpleInterval.

compareTo

public int compareTo(java.lang.Object arg0)

Comapres this to another Interval

Returns:

1 if this Interval's lower bound is lower than the argument's, 0 if they are the same, 1 otherwise

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object
