FixedDate

FORMAT_AUTOMATIC

static val FORMAT_AUTOMATIC: Int

Formatting option. The system will decide how to format the date, and whether to omit any pieces, depending on available space, the relationship between the LocalDate and the current date, etc.

Value: 0

FORMAT_LONG_DATE

static val FORMAT_LONG_DATE: Int

Formatting option. The date will be shown in a longer format, e.g. "Aug 13 2025" (according to the device's locale).

Value: 1

FORMAT_SHORT_DATE

static val FORMAT_SHORT_DATE: Int

Formatting option. The date will be shown in a shorter format, e.g. "13/8/25" (according to the device's locale).

Value: 2

FixedDate

FixedDate(value: LocalDate)

Creates a FixedDate where the LocalDate will be displayed with FORMAT_AUTOMATIC.

FixedDate

FixedDate(
    value: LocalDate, 
    format: Int)

Creates a FixedDate where the LocalDate will be displayed in the specified formatting option.

Note that the formatting option might be ignored to make the text fit.

equals

fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

• It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
• It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
• It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
• It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
• For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

getFormat

fun getFormat(): Int

The formatting option for the LocalDate value.

getValue

fun getValue(): LocalDate

The LocalDate value.

hashCode

fun hashCode(): Int

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

• Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
• If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
• It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

toString

fun toString(): String

Returns a string representation of the object.
