Hi guys I need some help tackling a problem.
I am trying to compare different date spans and then try to coalesce them (merge them)
this is the contructor of the DateSpan class I was provided with
public DateSpan(Date start, Date end)
throws IllegalArgumentException
{
if (end.before(start)) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("End date " + end + " is before start date "
+ start);
}
setStart(start);
setEnd(end);
}
these datespan object are then wrapped with another object and then put in a List.
Now for a certain object we can have different datspans.
If these date spans intersect or over lap I have to merge them all together and show just one DateSpan starting from earliest to the latest Date.
I would appreciate some input this
Thanks
