```
public void set(Date date)
```
    Description copied from interface: DateSettable
    
    Sets the container to a date value specified as a java.util.Date object, relative to the default time zone. The time zone returned by TimeZone.getDefault() is used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface DateSettable
    
    Parameters:
    
    date - date value to which to set the container, expressed as a point in time relative to the default time zone
  - set

public void set(Date date,
                TimeZone tz)
```
    Description copied from interface: DateSettable
    
    Sets the container to a date value specified as a java.util.Date object, relative to the given time zone.
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface DateSettable
    
    Parameters:
    
    date - date value to which to set the container, expressed as a point in time relative to the specified time zone
    
    tz - the time zone in which the date should be interpreted
  - set
```
public void set(long days)
```
    Description copied from interface: DateSettable
    
    Sets the container to a date value specified as the number of days since Java epoch (January 1, 1970 GMT).
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface DateSettable
    
    Parameters:
    
    days - date value to which to set the container, expressed as the number of days since Java epoch
  - set
```
public void set(CalendarDate date)
```
    Description copied from interface: DateSettable
    
    Sets the container to the specified calendar date.
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface DateSettable
    
    Parameters:
    
    date - value to which to set the container
  - set
```
public void set(TokenValued value)
```
    Description copied from interface: TokenSettable
    
    Sets the contained value to the given token value. The given value must have a type compatible with this object.
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface TokenSettable
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the value to which to set the container
  - getType
```
public final ScalarTokenType getType()
```
    Description copied from interface: TokenValued
    
    Gets the data type of the token. This type will dictate the valid values that can be contained.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getType in interface ScalarValued
    
    Specified by:
    
    getType in interface TokenValued
    
    Specified by:
    
    getType in interface ScalarTyped
    
    Specified by:
    
    getType in interface TokenTyped
    
    Returns:
    
    the token type.
  - asEpochDays
```
public final long asEpochDays()
```
    Description copied from interface: DateValued
    
    Gets the contained date value as the number of days since Java epoch (January 1, 1970).
    
    Specified by:
    
    asEpochDays in interface DateValued
    
    Returns:
    
    the contained value as days since Java epoch. If null valued, as indicated by TokenValued.isNull(), 0 is returned.
  - asDate
```
public final Date asDate()

    Specified by:
    
    asDate in interface DateValued
    
    Returns:
    
    the contained value as a java.sql.Date. If null valued, as indicated by TokenValued.isNull(), null is returned.
  - asDate
```
public final Date asDate(TimeZone tz)
```
    Description copied from interface: DateValued
    
    Gets the contained date value as a java.sql.Date relative to the given time zone.
    
    Specified by:
    
    asDate in interface DateValued
    
    Parameters:
    
    tz - the time zone in which to interpret the date
    
    Returns:
    
    the contained value as a java.sql.Date. If null valued, as indicated by TokenValued.isNull(), null is returned.
  - asCalendarDate
```
public final CalendarDate asCalendarDate()
```
    Description copied from interface: DateValued
    
    Gets the contained date value. This value represents the timezone free date portion of a timestamp.
    
    Specified by:
    
    asCalendarDate in interface DateValued
    
    Returns:
    
    the contained value as a calendar date. If null valued, as indicated by TokenValued.isNull(), null is returned.
  - isZero
```
public final boolean isZero()
```
    Description copied from interface: ScalarValued
    
    Indicates whether the value is the zero value for the type. Zero values are not stored in sparse representation formats.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isZero in interface ScalarValued
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the value is the zero value, false otherwise.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
  - isNull
```
public final boolean isNull()
```
    Description copied from interface: TokenValued
    
    Indicates whether the token is null valued. Tokens support null values analogous to SQL. Before accessing the value of the container, it is usually best to ensure it is not null valued using this method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isNull in interface TokenValued
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the token is null valued, false otherwise
