Method Detail

toSecondsSinceEpoch

public static long toSecondsSinceEpoch(Date date)

Converts the specified date object to a Unix epoch time in seconds.

Parameters:

date - The date. Must not be null.

Returns:

The Unix epoch time, in seconds.

fromSecondsSinceEpoch

public static Date fromSecondsSinceEpoch(long time)

Converts the specified Unix epoch time in seconds to a date object.

Parameters:

time - The Unix epoch time, in seconds. Must not be negative.

Returns:

The date.

isAfter

public static boolean isAfter(Date date,
              Date reference,
              long maxClockSkewSeconds)

Check if the specified date is after the specified reference, given the maximum accepted clock skew.

Formula:

 return date +/- clock_skew > reference
 

Parameters:

date - The date to check. Must not be null.

reference - The reference date. Must not be null.

maxClockSkewSeconds - The maximum acceptable clock skew of the date value to check, in seconds.

Returns:

true if the date is before the reference, plus or minus the maximum accepted clock skew, else false.

isBefore

public static boolean isBefore(Date date,
               Date reference,
               long maxClockSkewSeconds)

Checks if the specified data is before the specified reference, given the maximum accepted clock skew.

Formula:

 return date +/- clock_skew < reference
 

Parameters:

date - The date to check. Must not be null.

reference - The reference date. Must not be null.

maxClockSkewSeconds - The maximum acceptable clock skew of the date value to check, in seconds.

Returns:

true if the date is before the reference, plus or minus the maximum accepted clock skew, else false.
