Constructor Detail

SiderealGreenwichApparent

public SiderealGreenwichApparent(Map<String,String> info)

Constructs a new sidereal time object. Note that this global can only function correctly after the time and longitude have been registered.

Method Detail

rescanned

public double rescanned(String key,
                        String old,
                        String newval)

As any parameter depending instance we fail if the parameter we depend on is now a different one.

Specified by:

rescanned in interface Reloadable

Overrides:

rescanned in class AbstractParameter

setValue

public Number setValue(Number val)
                throws UnsupportedOperationException

Sets the sidereal time. The sidereal time is a read-only variable, therefore this method throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:

setValue in interface Value

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException

getValue

public Number getValue()

Returns the sidereal time in degrees, wrapped into a Double. Note that this method returns null if either the globals denoting the time or the Teide longitude are missing.

Specified by:

getValue in interface Value

registerParameter

public void registerParameter(Parameter what)

Registers the required additional globals for the sidereal time. For this particular object, latitude and UT is required. Note that the argumental global is checked for being of instance types of CurrentTime or Longitude, rather than querrying for the global name.

Specified by:

registerParameter in interface ParameterDepending

getAscendTime

public Long getAscendTime(Number until)

Returns the remaining time in ms.

Specified by:

getAscendTime in interface Increasing

Parameters:

until - The value in the future.

Returns:

A double carrying the remaining time or null if the time cannot be calculated.

getFormatted

public String getFormatted()

Returns a formatted version of the sidereal time.

Specified by:

getFormatted in interface Parameter

Overrides:

getFormatted in class AbstractParameter
