- java.lang.Object
- - groovy.time.BaseDuration
  - - groovy.time.DatumDependentDuration

Direct Known Subclasses:

    public class DatumDependentDuration
    extends BaseDuration

DatumDependentDuration represents durations whose length in milliseconds cannot be determined without knowing the datum point.

I don't know how many days in a year unless I know if it's a leap year or not.

I don't know how many days in a month unless I know the name of the month (and if it's a leap year if the month is February)
