All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<javax.measure.Quantity<Q>>, javax.measure.Quantity<Q>, ComparableQuantity<Q>, tech.uom.lib.common.function.QuantityConverter<Q>, tech.uom.lib.common.function.UnitSupplier<Q>, tech.uom.lib.common.function.ValueSupplier<Number>

public abstract class AbstractQuantity<Q extends javax.measure.Quantity<Q>> extends Object implements ComparableQuantity<Q>, tech.uom.lib.common.function.UnitSupplier<Q>, tech.uom.lib.common.function.ValueSupplier<Number>

This class represents the immutable result of a scalar measurement stated in a known unit.

To avoid any loss of precision, known exact quantities (e.g. physical constants) should not be created from double constants but from their decimal representation.
public static final Quantity<Velocity> C = NumberQuantity.parse("299792458 m/s").asType(Velocity.class); // Speed of Light (exact).

Quantities can be converted to different units.
Quantity<Velocity> milesPerHour = C.to(MILES_PER_HOUR); // Use double implementation (fast). System.out.println(milesPerHour); > 670616629.3843951 m/h

Applications may sub-class AbstractQuantity for particular quantity types.
// Quantity of type Mass based on double primitive types.
public class MassAmount extends AbstractQuantity<Mass> {
private final double kilograms; // Internal SI representation.
private Mass(double kg) { kilograms = kg; }
public static Mass of(double value, Unit<Mass> unit) {
return new Mass(unit.getConverterTo(SI.KILOGRAM).convert(value));
}
public Unit<Mass> getUnit() { return SI.KILOGRAM; }
public Double getValue() { return kilograms; }
...
}

// Complex numbers measurements.
public class ComplexQuantity <Q extends Quantity>extends AbstractQuantity <Q>{
public Complex getValue() { ... } // Assuming Complex is a Number.
...
}

// Specializations of complex numbers quantities.
public final class Current extends ComplexQuantity<ElectricCurrent> {...}
public final class Tension extends ComplexQuantity<ElectricPotential> {...}

All instances of this class shall be immutable.

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Compares this quantity against the specified object for strict equality (same unit and same amount).

      Similarly to the BigDecimal.equals(java.lang.Object) method which consider 2.0 and 2.00 as different objects because of different internal scales, quantities such as Quantities.getQuantity(3.0, KILOGRAM) Quantities.getQuantity(3, KILOGRAM) and Quantities.getQuantity("3 kg") might not be considered equals because of possible differences in their implementations.

      To compare quantities stated using different units or using different amount implementations the compareTo or

      invalid reference
      equals(Quantity, epsilon, epsilonUnit)
      methods should be used.

      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      Parameters:
      obj - the object to compare with.
      Returns:
      this.getUnit.equals(obj.getUnit()) invalid input: '&'invalid input: '&' this.getValue().equals(obj.getValue())
    • equals

      public boolean equals(AbstractQuantity<Q> that, double epsilon, javax.measure.Unit<Q> epsilonUnit)

      Parameters:
      that - the quantity to compare with.
      epsilon - the absolute error stated in epsilonUnit.
      epsilonUnit - the epsilon unit.
      Returns:
      abs(this.doubleValue(epsilonUnit) - that.doubleValue(epsilonUnit)) <= epsilon

      public int hashCode()
      Returns the hash code for this quantity.
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      the hash code value.
    • isBig

      public abstract boolean isBig()
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Returns the String representation of this quantity. The string produced for a given quantity is always the same; it is not affected by locale. This means that it can be used as a canonical string representation for exchanging quantity, or as a key for a Hashtable, etc. Locale-sensitive quantity formatting and parsing is handled by the QuantityFormat implementations and its subclasses.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      UnitFormat.getInternational().format(this)
