JapaneseCalendar is a subclass of GregorianCalendar that numbers years and eras based on the reigns of the Japanese emperors. The Japanese calendar is identical to the Gregorian calendar in all respects except for the year and era. The ascension of each emperor to the throne begins a new era, and the years of that era are numbered starting with the year of ascension as year 1.

Note that in the year of an imperial ascension, there are two possible sets of year and era values: that for the old era and for the new. For example, a new era began on January 7, 1989 AD. Strictly speaking, the first six days of that year were in the Showa era, e.g. "January 6, 64 Showa", while the rest of the year was in the Heisei era, e.g. "January 7, 1 Heisei". This class handles this distinction correctly when computing dates. However, in lenient mode either form of date is acceptable as input.

In modern times, eras have started on January 8, 1868 AD, Gregorian (Meiji), July 30, 1912 (Taisho), December 25, 1926 (Showa), and January 7, 1989 (Heisei). Constants for these eras, suitable for use in the ERA field, are provided in this class. Note that the number used for each era is more or less arbitrary. Currently, the era starting in 645 AD is era #0; however this may change in the future. Use the predefined constants rather than using actual, absolute numbers.

Since ICU4J 63, start date of each era is imported from CLDR. CLDR era data may contain tentative era in near future with placeholder names. By default, such era data is not enabled. ICU4J users who want to test the behavior of the future era can enable this by one of following settings (in the priority order):

Java system property ICU_ENABLE_TENTATIVE_ERA=true.
Environment variable ICU_ENABLE_TENTATIVE_ERA=true.
Java system property jdk.calendar.japanese.supplemental.era=xxx. (Note: This configuration is used for specifying a new era's start date and names in OpenJDK. ICU4J implementation enables the CLDR tentative era when this property is defined, but it does not use the start date and names specified by the property value.)

This class should not be subclassed.

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

Public methods

getActualMaximum

Added in API level 24

public int getActualMaximum (int field)

Return the maximum value that this field could have, given the current date. For example, with the date "Feb 3, 1997" and the DAY_OF_MONTH field, the actual maximum would be 28; for "Feb 3, 1996" it s 29. Similarly for a Hebrew calendar, for some years the actual maximum for MONTH is 12, and for others 13.

Parameters
`field`	`int`: the field whose maximum is desired

Returns
`int`	the maximum of the given field for the current date of this calendar

getType

Added in API level 24

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

Returns
`String`	legacy calendar type name string

Protected methods

handleComputeFields

Added in API level 24

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

Parameters
`julianDay`	`int`

handleGetExtendedYear

Added in API level 24

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.

Returns
`int`	the extended year

handleGetLimit

Added in API level 24

protected int handleGetLimit (int field, 
                int limitType)

Override GregorianCalendar. We should really handle YEAR_WOY and EXTENDED_YEAR here too to implement the 1..5000000 range, but it's not critical.

Parameters
`field`	`int`: one of the above field numbers
`limitType`	`int`: one of `MINIMUM`, `GREATEST_MINIMUM`, `LEAST_MAXIMUM`, or `MAXIMUM`

Returns
`int`
