Method Detail

getUnit

@UML(identifier="unit",
     specification=ISO_19108)
Unit getUnit()

The unit of measure used to express the length of the interval.

getRadix

@UML(identifier="radix",
     specification=ISO_19108)
int getRadix()

A positive integer that is the base of the mulitplier of the unit.

getFactor

@UML(identifier="factor",
     specification=ISO_19108)
int getFactor()

The exponent of the base.

getValue

@UML(identifier="value",
     specification=ISO_19108)
int getValue()

The length of the time interval as an integer multiple of one radix^(-factor) of the specified unit.
