Class TaiwanCalendar

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Calendar>
    public class TaiwanCalendar
extends GregorianCalendar
    TaiwanCalendar is a subclass of GregorianCalendar that numbers years since 1912.

    The Taiwan calendar is identical to the Gregorian calendar in all respects except for the year and era. Years are numbered since 1912 AD (Gregorian).

    The Taiwan Calendar has one era: MINGUO.

    This class should not be subclassed.

    TaiwanCalendar usually should be instantiated using Calendar.getInstance(ULocale) passing in a ULocale with the tag "@calendar=roc".

    • Method Detail

      • handleGetExtendedYear

        protected int handleGetExtendedYear()
        Returns the extended year defined by the current fields. This will use the EXTENDED_YEAR field or the YEAR and supra-year fields (such as ERA) specific to the calendar system, depending on which set of fields is newer.
        Overrides:
        handleGetExtendedYear in class GregorianCalendar
        Returns:
        the extended year
        Status:
        Stable ICU 3.8.

      • handleComputeFields

        protected void handleComputeFields​(int julianDay)
        Override Calendar to compute several fields specific to the hybrid Gregorian-Julian calendar system. These are:
        • ERA
        • YEAR
        • MONTH
        • DAY_OF_MONTH
        • DAY_OF_YEAR
        • EXTENDED_YEAR
        Overrides:
        handleComputeFields in class GregorianCalendar
        Status:
        Stable ICU 3.8.

      • handleGetLimit

        protected int handleGetLimit​(int field,
                             int limitType)
        Override GregorianCalendar. There is only one Taiwan ERA. We should really handle YEAR, YEAR_WOY, and EXTENDED_YEAR here too to implement the 1..5000000 range, but it's not critical.
        Overrides:
        handleGetLimit in class GregorianCalendar
        Parameters:
        field - one of the above field numbers
        limitType - one of MINIMUM, GREATEST_MINIMUM, LEAST_MAXIMUM, or MAXIMUM
        Status:
        Stable ICU 3.8.

      • getType

        public String getType()
        [icu] Returns the calendar type name string for this Calendar object. The returned string is the legacy ICU calendar attribute value, for example, "gregorian" or "japanese".

        See type="old type name" for the calendar attribute of locale IDs at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/#Key_Type_Definitions

        Overrides:
        getType in class GregorianCalendar
        Returns:
        legacy calendar type name string
        Status:
        Stable ICU 3.8.
