public final class MinguoDate extends ChronoLocalDate implements java.io.Serializable
This date operates using the Minguo calendar.
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).

MinguoDate from the system clock in the default time-zone.
This will query the system clock in the default
time-zone to obtain the current date.
Using this method will prevent the ability to use an alternate clock for testing because the clock is hard-coded.
public static MinguoDate now(ZoneId zone)
MinguoDate from the system clock in the specified time-zone.
This will query the system clock to obtain the current date.
Specifying the time-zone avoids dependence on the default time-zone.
Using this method will prevent the ability to use an alternate clock for testing because the clock is hard-coded.
zone - the zone ID to use, not nullpublic static MinguoDate now(Clock clock)
MinguoDate from the specified clock.
This will query the specified clock to obtain the current date - today. Using this method allows the use of an alternate clock for testing. The alternate clock may be introduced using dependency injection.
clock - the clock to use, not nullDateTimeException - if the current date cannot be obtainedpublic static MinguoDate of(int prolepticYear, int month, int dayOfMonth)
MinguoDate representing a date in the Minguo calendar
system from the proleptic-year, month-of-year and day-of-month fields.
This returns a MinguoDate with the specified fields.
The day must be valid for the year and month, otherwise an exception will be thrown.
prolepticYear - the Minguo proleptic-yearmonth - the Minguo month-of-year, from 1 to 12dayOfMonth - the Minguo day-of-month, from 1 to 31DateTimeException - if the value of any field is out of range,
or if the day-of-month is invalid for the month-yearpublic static MinguoDate from(TemporalAccessor temporal)
MinguoDate from a temporal object.
This obtains a date in the Minguo calendar system based on the specified temporal.
A TemporalAccessor represents an arbitrary set of date and time information,
which this factory converts to an instance of MinguoDate.
The conversion typically uses the EPOCH_DAY
field, which is standardized across calendar systems.
This method matches the signature of the functional interface TemporalQuery
allowing it to be used as a query via method reference, MinguoDate::from.
temporal - the temporal object to convert, not nullDateTimeException - if unable to convert to a MinguoDatepublic MinguoChronology getChronology()
ChronoLocalDate
The Chronology represents the calendar system in use.
The era and other fields in ChronoField are defined by the chronology.
getChronology in class ChronoLocalDatepublic MinguoEra getEra()
ChronoLocalDate
The era is, conceptually, the largest division of the time-line.
Most calendar systems have a single epoch dividing the time-line into two eras.
However, some have multiple eras, such as one for the reign of each leader.
The exact meaning is determined by the Chronology.
All correctly implemented Era classes are singletons, thus it
is valid code to write date.getEra() == SomeEra.NAME).
getEra in class ChronoLocalDatepublic int lengthOfMonth()
ChronoLocalDateThis returns the length of the month in days.
lengthOfMonth in class ChronoLocalDatepublic ValueRange range(TemporalField field)
TemporalAccessor
All fields can be expressed as a long integer.
This method returns an object that describes the valid range for that value.
The value of this temporal object is used to enhance the accuracy of the returned range.
If the date-time cannot return the range, because the field is unsupported or for
some other reason, an exception will be thrown.
Note that the result only describes the minimum and maximum valid values and it is important not to read too much into them. For example, there could be values within the range that are invalid for the field.
ChronoField.
If the field is supported, then the range of the field must be returned.
If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.
If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method
is obtained by invoking TemporalField.rangeRefinedBy(TemporalAccessorl)
passing this as the argument.
Implementations must not alter either this object.
range in interface TemporalAccessorrange in class DefaultInterfaceTemporalAccessorfield - the field to query the range for, not nullpublic long getLong(TemporalField field)
TemporalAccessorlong.
This queries the date-time for the value for the specified field. The returned value may be outside the valid range of values for the field. If the date-time cannot return the value, because the field is unsupported or for some other reason, an exception will be thrown.
ChronoField.
If the field is supported, then the value of the field must be returned.
If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.
If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method
is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor)
passing this as the argument.
Implementations must not alter either this object.
getLong in interface TemporalAccessorfield - the field to get, not nullpublic MinguoDate with(TemporalAdjuster adjuster)
Temporal
This adjusts this date-time according to the rules of the specified adjuster.
A simple adjuster might simply set the one of the fields, such as the year field.
A more complex adjuster might set the date to the last day of the month.
A selection of common adjustments is provided in TemporalAdjusters.
These include finding the "last day of the month" and "next Wednesday".
The adjuster is responsible for handling special cases, such as the varying
lengths of month and leap years.
Some example code indicating how and why this method is used:
date = date.with(Month.JULY); // most key classes implement TemporalAdjuster date = date.with(lastDayOfMonth()); // static import from TemporalAdjusters date = date.with(next(WEDNESDAY)); // static import from TemporalAdjusters and DayOfWeek
with in interface Temporalwith in class ChronoLocalDateadjuster - the adjuster to use, not nullpublic MinguoDate with(TemporalField field, long newValue)
Temporal
This returns a new object based on this one with the value for the specified field changed.
For example, on a LocalDate, this could be used to set the year, month or day-of-month.
The returned object will have the same observable type as this object.
In some cases, changing a field is not fully defined. For example, if the target object is a date representing the 31st January, then changing the month to February would be unclear. In cases like this, the field is responsible for resolving the result. Typically it will choose the previous valid date, which would be the last valid day of February in this example.
ChronoField.
If the field is supported, then the adjustment must be performed.
If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.
If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method
is obtained by invoking TemporalField.adjustInto(Temporal, long)
passing this as the first argument.
Implementations must not alter either this object or the specified temporal object. Instead, an adjusted copy of the original must be returned. This provides equivalent, safe behavior for immutable and mutable implementations.
with in interface Temporalwith in class ChronoLocalDatefield - the field to set in the result, not nullnewValue - the new value of the field in the resultpublic MinguoDate plus(TemporalAmount amount)
Temporal
This adjusts this temporal, adding according to the rules of the specified amount.
The amount is typically a Period but may be any other type implementing
the TemporalAdder interface, such as Duration.
Some example code indicating how and why this method is used:
date = date.plus(period); // add a Period instance date = date.plus(duration); // add a Duration instance date = date.plus(workingDays(6)); // example user-written workingDays method
Note that calling plus followed by minus is not guaranteed to
return the same date-time.
plus in interface Temporalplus in class ChronoLocalDateamount - the amount to add, not nullpublic MinguoDate plus(long amountToAdd, TemporalUnit unit)
Temporal
This method returns a new object based on this one with the specified period added.
For example, on a LocalDate, this could be used to add a number of years, months or days.
The returned object will have the same observable type as this object.
In some cases, changing a field is not fully defined. For example, if the target object is a date representing the 31st January, then adding one month would be unclear. In cases like this, the field is responsible for resolving the result. Typically it will choose the previous valid date, which would be the last valid day of February in this example.
If the implementation represents a date-time that has boundaries, such as LocalTime,
then the permitted units must include the boundary unit, but no multiples of the boundary unit.
For example, LocalTime must accept DAYS but not WEEKS or MONTHS.
ChronoUnit.
If the unit is supported, then the addition must be performed.
If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.
If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method
is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.addTo(Temporal, long)
passing this as the first argument.
Implementations must not alter either this object or the specified temporal object. Instead, an adjusted copy of the original must be returned. This provides equivalent, safe behavior for immutable and mutable implementations.
public MinguoDate minus(TemporalAmount amount)
Temporal
This adjusts this temporal, subtracting according to the rules of the specified amount.
The amount is typically a Period but may be any other type implementing
the TemporalAmount interface, such as Duration.
Some example code indicating how and why this method is used:
date = date.minus(period); // subtract a Period instance date = date.minus(duration); // subtract a Duration instance date = date.minus(workingDays(6)); // example user-written workingDays method
Note that calling plus followed by minus is not guaranteed to
return the same date-time.
minus in interface Temporalminus in class ChronoLocalDateamount - the amount to subtract, not nullpublic MinguoDate minus(long amountToAdd, TemporalUnit unit)
Temporal
This method returns a new object based on this one with the specified period subtracted.
For example, on a LocalDate, this could be used to subtract a number of years, months or days.
The returned object will have the same observable type as this object.
In some cases, changing a field is not fully defined. For example, if the target object is a date representing the 31st March, then subtracting one month would be unclear. In cases like this, the field is responsible for resolving the result. Typically it will choose the previous valid date, which would be the last valid day of February in this example.
If the implementation represents a date-time that has boundaries, such as LocalTime,
then the permitted units must include the boundary unit, but no multiples of the boundary unit.
For example, LocalTime must accept DAYS but not WEEKS or MONTHS.
Implementations must not alter either this object or the specified temporal object. Instead, an adjusted copy of the original must be returned. This provides equivalent, safe behavior for immutable and mutable implementations.

ChronoLocalDateChronoLocalDateTime.
This returns a ChronoLocalDateTime formed from this date at the specified time.
All possible combinations of date and time are valid.
localTime - the local time to use, not nullpublic ChronoPeriod until(ChronoLocalDate endDate)
ChronoLocalDateChronoPeriod.
This calculates the period between two dates. All supplied chronologies
calculate the period using years, months and days, however the
ChronoPeriod API allows the period to be represented using other units.
The start and end points are this and the specified date.
The result will be negative if the end is before the start.
The negative sign will be the same in each of year, month and day.
The calculation is performed using the chronology of this date. If necessary, the input date will be converted to match.
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
endDate - the end date, exclusive, which may be in any chronology, not nullpublic long toEpochDay()
ChronoLocalDate
The Epoch Day count is a simple
incrementing count of days where day 0 is 1970-01-01 (ISO).
This definition is the same for all chronologies, enabling conversion.
toEpochDay in class ChronoLocalDatepublic boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)
ChronoLocalDateCompares this date with another ensuring that the date and chronology are the same.
To compare the dates of two TemporalAccessor instances, including dates
in two different chronologies, use ChronoField.EPOCH_DAY as a comparator.
equals in class ChronoLocalDateobj - the object to check, null returns falsepublic int hashCode()
ChronoLocalDatehashCode in class ChronoLocalDatepublic long until(Temporal endExclusive, TemporalUnit unit)
Temporal
This calculates the period between two temporals in terms of a single unit.
The start and end points are this and the specified temporal.
The result will be negative if the end is before the start.
For example, the period in hours between two temporal objects can be
calculated using startTime.until(endTime, HOURS).
The calculation returns a whole number, representing the number of complete units between the two temporals. For example, the period in hours between the times 11:30 and 13:29 will only be one hour as it is one minute short of two hours.
There are two equivalent ways of using this method.
The first is to invoke this method directly.
The second is to use TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal):
// these two lines are equivalent between = thisUnit.between(start, end); between = start.until(end, thisUnit);The choice should be made based on which makes the code more readable.
For example, this method allows the number of days between two dates to be calculated:
long daysBetween = DAYS.between(start, end); // or alternatively long daysBetween = start.until(end, DAYS);
ChronoUnit.
A DateTimeException must be thrown for ChronoUnit
instances that are unsupported.
If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method
is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal)
passing this as the first argument and the input temporal as
the second argument.
In summary, implementations must behave in a manner equivalent to this code:
// check input temporal is the same type as this class
if (unit instanceof ChronoUnit) {
// if unit is supported, then calculate and return result
// else throw DateTimeException for unsupported units
}
return unit.between(this, endTemporal);
The target object must not be altered by this method.
