Interface StartEndComponent

All Known Subinterfaces:
EventEntity
All Known Implementing Classes:
BwEvent, BwEventAnnotation, BwEventNewWrapper, BwEventObj, BwEventProxy
public interface StartEndComponent
This interface is implemented by entities which have a start and an end.

They may also have a duration, though it's meaning differs.

For event and todo entities we may have an end specified with a duration or with a date or date/time value, or o end date at all.

We always calculate an end date internally, so we do not need to use the duration until we render the object.
