sealed abstract class Duration extends Serializable with 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.

Tests whether the argument (

).Tests whether the argument (

) is a reference to the receiver object (this
).The
eq
method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances ofAnyRef
, and has three additional properties:- It is consistent: for any non-null instances
x
andy
of typeAnyRef
, multiple invocations ofx.eq(y)
consistently returnstrue
or consistently returnsfalse
. - For any non-null instance
x
of typeAnyRef
,x.eq(null)
andnull.eq(x)
returnsfalse
. null.eq(null)
returnstrue
.
When overriding the
equals
orhashCode
methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2
), they should be equal to each other (o1 == o2
) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode
).- returns
true

Identifiers in the scala package and the
scala.Predef
object are always in scope by default.Some of these identifiers are type aliases provided as shortcuts to commonly used classes. For example,
List
is an alias forscala.collection.immutable.List
.Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM,
String
is an alias forjava.lang.String
.
