BaseDuration (Groovy 6.0.0-beta-1)

org.apache.groovy.dateutil.BaseDuration

All Implemented Interfaces and Traits:

Comparable
```
public abstract class BaseDuration
extends Object
implements Comparable
```
Base class for date and time durations (dequirked, java.util.Date-flavored).
This is the B1 prototype: the same value-class model as the legacy groovy.time.BaseDuration, but with the historical quirks removed:
- ago / from.now no longer zero the time-of-day for date-based durations — the behavior is now uniform across all durations (time is preserved), so a single implementation lives here rather than divergent overrides per subclass.
- toMilliseconds() is deterministic — datum-dependent amounts (years, months) use ChronoUnit's estimated durations rather than resolving against new Date() ("now"), so the result no longer depends on when it is called.

  - public int compareTo(BaseDuration other)
  - public Date getAgo()
    
    The date this duration ago.
    DEQUIRKED (A): the time-of-day is preserved (no flooring to midnight), uniformly for all duration kinds.
  - public int getDays()
  - public BaseDuration.From getFrom()
    
    Helper for computing dates relative to the current time. DEQUIRKED (A): time-of-day preserved.
  - public int getHours()
  - public int getMillis()
  - public int getMinutes()
  - public int getMonths()
  - public int getSeconds()
  - public int getYears()
  - public Date plus(Date date)
    
    Adds this duration to the supplied date.
  - public long toMilliseconds()
    
    Converts this duration to milliseconds.
    DEQUIRKED (B): deterministic. Years and months use ChronoUnit estimates (a year is exactly 12 estimated months, so 1.year == 12.months); days and below are exact assuming 24-hour days. The result never depends on the current date.
