Class TimeSpan

java.lang.Object
org.apache.uima.internal.util.TimeSpan

public class TimeSpan extends Object
Encode a span of time. The main purpose of this class is to provide a printing utility for time spans. E.g., 1081 ms should be printed as 1.081 s, 108101 ms should be printed as 1 min 48.101 s, etc.

Note that the largest value you can represent with this class is 9223372036854775807 (Long.MAX_VALUE), or equivalently, 292471208 yrs 247 days 7 hrs 12 min 55.807 sec. Overflow is not handled gracefully by this class.

Also note that for the purposes of this class, a year has 365 days. I.e., a year corresponds to 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 ms.
