Method Detail

getOffset

long getOffset()

The first solution to be returned to the caller. A value of ZERO (0) indicates that all solutions should be returned.

getLimit

long getLimit()

The maximum #of solutions to be returned to the caller. A value of Long.MAX_VALUE indicates that there is no limit.

getLast

long getLast()

The index of the last solution that we will generate (OFFSET + LIMIT). If OFFSET + LIMIT would be greater than Long.MAX_VALUE, then use Long.MAX_VALUE instead.
