All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Comparable
```
public class RelativeDate
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Comparable
```
Representation of a relative date. Given a string or RelativeDateShortcut an absolute date can be retrieved based on a fixed point in time as the point of relevance.
A relative date can also contain a RelativeDateRangePosition which is only used if the relative date string is a RelativeDateShortcut. For instance, if RelativeDateShortcut.TODAY is used we don't know if that means the start or the end of today, use the range position to specify which is true.
