Stephen, in a prior email, you mentioned that fully closed intervals are not part of the next 1.x release (or perhaps any release). Right now I can't suggest how to shoehorn them in, as I'm just starting to get familiar with the library. In any event, I would like to propse them for version 2 (in which case, I'd like to dig into the code a bit more). They would be quite useful for me. My current need for a closed interval is to capture the life of a Plan business object. There is a lot of logic regarding the begin and end dates of a Plan that an Interval would solve quite nicely. From a business standpoint, however, the end date is inclusive (and stored in a database accordingly). It would be nice if the interval end point were inclusive (hence, a ClosedInterval).
The Time and Money library (http://timeandmoney.domainlanguage.com/) has a CalendarInterval, which I /believe/ is closed. I'll check it out for ideas for a Joda CloseInterval. Also, I created a PersistentInterval CompositeUserType that might be a good candidate for the Hibernate subproject. How does one contribute to that project? ----- Original Message ---- From: Stephen Colebourne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Discussion of the Joda project <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, December 21, 2006 4:29:45 AM Subject: [Joda-interest] Joda-Time version 2 - Java SE 5+ Hi all, I'd like to open the floor for general discussion as to what people would like to see in a 'version 2' of Joda-Time. This would be Java SE 5 and above. Please don't limit your thoughts to things that are backwards compatible. Focus on the use cases that you have needed, and were a little tricky with Joda-Time as-is. (BTW. This Joda-Time 1.x isn't disappearing, or going end-of-life. I just want to gather the requirements as to what has worked and what hasn't, to help judge what could be changed if a 2.0 ever happens) All ideas welcome!
