Interface FuzzyInterval.FuzzyComparable<T>

Type Parameters:

T - Type of the object to be compared

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.Comparable<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:

JollyDayHolidays.JollyHoliday, SUTime.CompositePartialTime, SUTime.Duration, SUTime.DurationRange, SUTime.DurationWithFields, SUTime.DurationWithMillis, SUTime.GroundedTime, SUTime.InexactDuration, SUTime.InexactTime, SUTime.IsoDate, SUTime.IsoDateTime, SUTime.IsoTime, SUTime.OrdinalTime, SUTime.PartialTime, SUTime.RefTime, SUTime.RelativeTime, SUTime.SimpleTime, SUTime.Time, SUTime.TimeWithRange

Enclosing class:

FuzzyInterval<E extends FuzzyInterval.FuzzyComparable<E>>

public static interface FuzzyInterval.FuzzyComparable<T>
extends java.lang.Comparable<T>

Interface with a looser ordering than Comparable. If two objects are clearly comparable, compareTo will return -1,1,0 as before If two objects are not quite comparable, compareTo will return it's best guess
