Class MinguoChronology

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<Chronology>, Chronology
public final class MinguoChronology
extends AbstractChronology
implements Serializable

The Minguo calendar system.

This chronology defines the rules of the Minguo calendar system. This calendar system is primarily used in the Republic of China, often known as Taiwan. Dates are aligned such that 0001-01-01 (Minguo) is 1912-01-01 (ISO).

The fields are defined as follows:

  • era - There are two eras, the current 'Republic' (ERA_ROC) and the previous era (ERA_BEFORE_ROC).
  • year-of-era - The year-of-era for the current era increases uniformly from the epoch at year one. For the previous era the year increases from one as time goes backwards. The value for the current era is equal to the ISO proleptic-year minus 1911.
  • proleptic-year - The proleptic year is the same as the year-of-era for the current era. For the previous era, years have zero, then negative values. The value is equal to the ISO proleptic-year minus 1911.
  • month-of-year - The Minguo month-of-year exactly matches ISO.
  • day-of-month - The Minguo day-of-month exactly matches ISO.
  • day-of-year - The Minguo day-of-year exactly matches ISO.
  • leap-year - The Minguo leap-year pattern exactly matches ISO, such that the two calendars are never out of step.

This class is immutable and thread-safe.

Field Detail

INSTANCE

public static final MinguoChronology INSTANCE

Singleton instance for the Minguo chronology.

Method Detail

getId

public String getId()

Gets the ID of the chronology - 'Minguo'.

The ID uniquely identifies the Chronology. It can be used to lookup the Chronology using Chronology.of(String).

Specified by:
getId in interface Chronology
Returns:
the chronology ID - 'Minguo'
See Also:
getCalendarType()

getCalendarType

public String getCalendarType()

Gets the calendar type of the underlying calendar system - 'roc'.

The calendar type is an identifier defined by the Unicode Locale Data Markup Language (LDML) specification. It can be used to lookup the Chronology using Chronology.of(String). It can also be used as part of a locale, accessible via Locale.getUnicodeLocaleType(String) with the key 'ca'.

Specified by:
getCalendarType in interface Chronology
Returns:
the calendar system type - 'roc'
See Also:
getId()

date

public MinguoDate date​(Era era,
                       int yearOfEra,
                       int month,
                       int dayOfMonth)

Obtains a local date in Minguo calendar system from the era, year-of-era, month-of-year and day-of-month fields.

Specified by:
date in interface Chronology
Parameters:
era - the Minguo era, not null
yearOfEra - the year-of-era
month - the month-of-year
dayOfMonth - the day-of-month
Returns:
the Minguo local date, not null
Throws:
DateTimeException - if unable to create the date
ClassCastException - if the era is not a MinguoEra

date

public MinguoDate date​(int prolepticYear,
                       int month,
                       int dayOfMonth)

Obtains a local date in Minguo calendar system from the proleptic-year, month-of-year and day-of-month fields.

Specified by:
date in interface Chronology
Parameters:
prolepticYear - the proleptic-year
month - the month-of-year
dayOfMonth - the day-of-month
Returns:
the Minguo local date, not null
Throws:
DateTimeException - if unable to create the date

dateYearDay

public MinguoDate dateYearDay​(Era era,
                              int yearOfEra,
                              int dayOfYear)

Obtains a local date in Minguo calendar system from the era, year-of-era and day-of-year fields.
