public interface ITimedManyToManyRelation
extends IManyToManyRelation

An interface of many-to-many relations which took place in time. The timed relation may define its start date, end date and/or duration.

Each relation has to satisfy the following condition:

• it has to be a valid many-to-many relation
• if both start and end date are specified, the end date has to be after the start date
• the duration has to be equal to the difference of end and start dates

The names of the properties are: ITimedManyToManyRelation.Properties.RELATION_START_DATE, ITimedManyToManyRelation.Properties.RELATION_END_DATE and ITimedManyToManyRelation.Properties.RELATION_DURATION
