      com.google.appengine.api.blobstore.ByteRange

    public class ByteRange

extends java.lang.Object

A byte range as parsed from a request Range header. Format produced by this class is also compatible with the X-AppEngine-BlobRange header, used for serving sub-ranges of blobs.

Constructor Summary
`ByteRange(long start)` Constructor.
`ByteRange(long start, long end)` Constructor.

Method Summary
`boolean` `equals(java.lang.Object object)` Two `ByteRange` objects are considered equal if they have the same start and end.
`long` `getEnd()` Get end index of byte range.
`long` `getStart()` Get start index of byte range.
`boolean` `hasEnd()` Indicates whether or not this byte range indicates an end.
`int` `hashCode()`
`static ByteRange` `parse(java.lang.String byteRange)` Parse byte range from header.
`static ByteRange` `parseContentRange(java.lang.String contentRange)` Parse content range from header for byte-range only.
`java.lang.String` `toString()` Format byte range for use in header.

Constructor Detail

### ByteRange

    public ByteRange(long start)

  Constructor.

  Parameters:
    `start` - Start index of blob range to serve. If negative, serve the last abs(start) bytes of the blob.

### ByteRange

    public ByteRange(long start,
                     long end)

  Constructor.

  Parameters:
    `start` - Start index of blob range to serve. May not be negative.
    `end` - End index of blob range to serve. Index is inclusive, meaning the byte indicated by end is included in the response.

Method Detail

### hasEnd

    public boolean hasEnd()

  Indicates whether or not this byte range indicates an end.

  Returns:
    true if byte range has an end.

### getStart

    public long getStart()

  Get start index of byte range.

  Returns:
    Start index of byte range.

### getEnd

    public long getEnd()

  Get end index of byte range.

  Returns:
    End index of byte range.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - if byte range does not have an end range.

### toString

    public java.lang.String toString()

  Format byte range for use in header.

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `java.lang.Object`

### parse

    public static ByteRange parse(java.lang.String byteRange)

  Parse byte range from header.

  Parameters:
    `byteRange` - Byte range string as received from header.
  Returns:
    ByteRange object set to byte range as parsed from string.
  Throws:
    `RangeFormatException` - Unable to parse header because of invalid format.
    `UnsupportedRangeFormatException` - Header is a valid HTTP range header, the specific form is not supported by app engine. This includes unit types other than "bytes" and multiple ranges.

### parseContentRange

    public static ByteRange parseContentRange(java.lang.String contentRange)

  Parse content range from header for byte-range only.

  Parameters:
    `contentRange` - Content range string as received from header.
  Returns:
    ByteRange object set to byte range as parsed from string, but does not include the size information.
  Throws:
    `RangeFormatException` - Unable to parse header because of invalid format.

### hashCode

    public int hashCode()

  Overrides:
    `hashCode` in class `java.lang.Object`

### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)

  Two `ByteRange` objects are considered equal if they have the same start and end.

  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `java.lang.Object`
