sealed abstract class Duration extends Serializable, Ordered[Duration]

== Utility for working with java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit durations. ==

'''''This class is not meant as a general purpose representation of time, it is optimized for the needs of scala.concurrent.'''''

== Basic Usage ==

Examples:

import scala.concurrent.duration._

val duration = Duration(100, MILLISECONDS)
val duration = Duration(100, "millis")

duration.toNanos
duration < 1.second
duration <= Duration.Inf

'''''Invoking inexpressible conversions (like calling toSeconds on an infinite duration) will throw an IllegalArgumentException.'''''

Implicits are also provided for Int, Long and Double. Example usage:

import scala.concurrent.duration._

val duration = 100.millis

'''''The DSL provided by the implicit conversions always allows construction of finite durations, even for infinite Double inputs; use Duration.Inf instead.'''''

Extractors, parsing and arithmetic are also included:

val d = Duration("1.2 µs")
val Duration(length, unit) = 5 millis
val d2 = d * 2.5
val d3 = d2 + 1.millisecond

== Handling of Time Units ==

Calculations performed on finite durations always retain the more precise unit of either operand, no matter whether a coarser unit would be able to exactly express the same duration. This means that Duration can be used as a lossless container for a (length, unit) pair if it is constructed using the corresponding methods and no arithmetic is performed on it; adding/subtracting durations should in that case be done with care.

== Correspondence to Double Semantics ==

The semantics of arithmetic operations on Duration are two-fold:

  • exact addition/subtraction with nanosecond resolution for finite durations, independent of the summands' magnitude
  • isomorphic to java.lang.Double when it comes to infinite or undefined values

The conversion between Duration and Double is done using Duration.toUnit (with unit NANOSECONDS) and Duration.fromNanos(Double)

== Ordering ==

The default ordering is consistent with the ordering of Double numbers, which means that Undefined is considered greater than all other durations, including Duration.Inf.
