Method Details

asMilliSeconds

public static Long asMilliSeconds(Object value,
 Long defaultValue)

Tries to return the given object as a Long. If it is a Number, treat it as a number of seconds, i.e. get a Long representation and multiply by 1000. If it has a String representation, try to parse this as a floating point number, followed by by an optional unit (seconds and an SI prefix, a couple of valid examples are "s" and "ms". Only a very small subset of SI prefixes are supported). If no unit is given, seconds are assumed.

Parameters:

value - some representation of a number of seconds

defaultValue - returned if value is null

Returns:

value as a number of milliseconds

Throws:

NumberFormatException - if value is not a Number instance and its String representation cannot be parsed as a number followed optionally by time unit
