Calendar is an abstract base class for converting between a UDate object and a set of integer fields such as YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, and so on.

(A UDate object represents a specific instant in time with millisecond precision. See UDate for information about the UDate class.)

Subclasses of Calendar interpret a UDate according to the rules of a specific calendar system. The most commonly used subclass of Calendar is GregorianCalendar. Other subclasses could represent the various types of lunar calendars in use in many parts of the world.

NOTE: (ICU 2.6) The subclass interface should be considered unstable - it WILL change.

Like other locale-sensitive classes, Calendar provides a static method, createInstance, for getting a generally useful object of this type. Calendar's createInstance method returns the appropriate Calendar subclass whose time fields have been initialized with the current date and time:

Calendar *rightNow = Calendar::createInstance(errCode);

A Calendar object can produce all the time field values needed to implement the date-time formatting for a particular language and calendar style (for example, Japanese-Gregorian, Japanese-Traditional).

When computing a UDate from time fields, some special circumstances may arise: there may be insufficient information to compute the UDate (such as only year and month but no day in the month), there may be inconsistent information (such as "Tuesday, July 15, 1996" – July 15, 1996 is actually a Monday), or the input time might be ambiguous because of time zone transition.

Insufficient information. The calendar will use default information to specify the missing fields. This may vary by calendar; for the Gregorian calendar, the default for a field is the same as that of the start of the epoch: i.e., YEAR = 1970, MONTH = JANUARY, DATE = 1, etc.

Inconsistent information. If fields conflict, the calendar will give preference to fields set more recently. For example, when determining the day, the calendar will look for one of the following combinations of fields. The most recent combination, as determined by the most recently set single field, will be used.

MONTH + DAY_OF_MONTH
MONTH + WEEK_OF_MONTH + DAY_OF_WEEK
MONTH + DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH + DAY_OF_WEEK
DAY_OF_YEAR
DAY_OF_WEEK + WEEK_OF_YEAR

For the time of day:

HOUR_OF_DAY
AM_PM + HOUR

Ambiguous Wall Clock Time. When time offset from UTC has changed, it produces an ambiguous time slot around the transition. For example, many US locations observe daylight saving time. On the date switching to daylight saving time in US, wall clock time jumps from 12:59 AM (standard) to 2:00 AM (daylight). Therefore, wall clock time from 1:00 AM to 1:59 AM do not exist on the date. When the input wall time fall into this missing time slot, the ICU Calendar resolves the time using the UTC offset before the transition by default. In this example, 1:30 AM is interpreted as 1:30 AM standard time (non-exist), so the final result will be 2:30 AM daylight time.

On the date switching back to standard time, wall clock time is moved back one hour at 2:00 AM. So wall clock time from 1:00 AM to 1:59 AM occur twice. In this case, the ICU Calendar resolves the time using the UTC offset after the transition by default. For example, 1:30 AM on the date is resolved as 1:30 AM standard time.

Ambiguous wall clock time resolution behaviors can be customized by Calendar APIs setRepeatedWallTimeOption and setSkippedWallTimeOption. These methods are available in ICU 49 or later versions.

Note: for some non-Gregorian calendars, different fields may be necessary for complete disambiguation. For example, a full specification of the historical Arabic astronomical calendar requires year, month, day-of-month and day-of-week in some cases.

Note: There are certain possible ambiguities in interpretation of certain singular times, which are resolved in the following ways:

  1. 24:00:00 "belongs" to the following day. That is, 23:59 on Dec 31, 1969 < 24:00 on Jan 1, 1970 < 24:01:00 on Jan 1, 1970
  2. Although historically not precise, midnight also belongs to "am", and noon belongs to "pm", so on the same day, 12:00 am (midnight) < 12:01 am, and 12:00 pm (noon) < 12:01 pm

The date or time format strings are not part of the definition of a calendar, as those must be modifiable or overridable by the user at runtime. Use DateFormat to format dates.

Calendar provides an API for field "rolling", where fields can be incremented or decremented, but wrap around. For example, rolling the month up in the date December 12, 1996 results in January 12, 1996.

Calendar also provides a date arithmetic function for adding the specified (signed) amount of time to a particular time field. For example, subtracting 5 days from the date September 12, 1996 results in September 7, 1996.

Supported range

The allowable range of Calendar has been narrowed. GregorianCalendar used to attempt to support the range of dates with millisecond values from Long.MIN_VALUE to Long.MAX_VALUE. The new Calendar protocol specifies the maximum range of supportable dates as those having Julian day numbers of -0x7F000000 to +0x7F000000. This corresponds to years from ~5,800,000 BCE to ~5,800,000 CE. Programmers should use the protected constants in Calendar to specify an extremely early or extremely late date.

The Japanese calendar uses a combination of era name and year number. When an emperor of Japan abdicates and a new emperor ascends the throne, a new era is declared and year number is reset to 1. Even if the date of abdication is scheduled ahead of time, the new era name might not be announced until just before the date. In such case, ICU4C may include a start date of future era without actual era name, but not enabled by default. ICU4C users who want to test the behavior of the future era can enable the tentative era by:

Stable:
ICU 2.0
◆ add() [1/2]

UDate Arithmetic function.

Adds the specified (signed) amount of time to the given time field, based on the calendar's rules. For example, to subtract 5 days from the current time of the calendar, call add(Calendar::DATE, -5). When adding on the month or Calendar::MONTH field, other fields like date might conflict and need to be changed. For instance, adding 1 month on the date 01/31/96 will result in 02/29/96. Adding a positive value always means moving forward in time, so for the Gregorian calendar, starting with 100 BC and adding +1 to year results in 99 BC (even though this actually reduces the numeric value of the field itself).

Parameters
field Specifies which date field to modify. amount The amount of time to be added to the field, in the natural unit for that field (e.g., days for the day fields, hours for the hour field.) status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value previously set in the time field is invalid or restricted by leniency, this will be set to an error status.
Deprecated:
ICU 2.6. use add(UCalendarDateFields field, int32_t amount, UErrorCode& status) instead.

◆ fieldDifference() [1/2]

Return the difference between the given time and the time this calendar object is set to.

If this calendar is set before the given time, the returned value will be positive. If this calendar is set after the given time, the returned value will be negative. The field parameter specifies the units of the return value. For example, if fieldDifference(when, Calendar::MONTH) returns 3, then this calendar is set to 3 months before when, and possibly some addition time less than one month.

As a side effect of this call, this calendar is advanced toward when by the given amount. That is, calling this method has the side effect of calling add(field, n), where n is the return value.

Usage: To use this method, call it first with the largest field of interest, then with progressively smaller fields. For example:

int y = cal->fieldDifference(when, Calendar::YEAR, err);
int m = cal->fieldDifference(when, Calendar::MONTH, err);
int d = cal->fieldDifference(when, Calendar::DATE, err);

computes the difference between cal and when in years, months, and days.

Note: fieldDifference() is asymmetrical. That is, in the following code:

cal->setTime(date1, err);
int m1 = cal->fieldDifference(date2, Calendar::MONTH, err);
int d1 = cal->fieldDifference(date2, Calendar::DATE, err);
cal->setTime(date2, err);
int m2 = cal->fieldDifference(date1, Calendar::MONTH, err);
int d2 = cal->fieldDifference(date1, Calendar::DATE, err);

one might expect that m1 == -m2 && d1 == -d2. However, this is not generally the case, because of irregularities in the underlying calendar system (e.g., the Gregorian calendar has a varying number of days per month).

Parameters
when the date to compare this calendar's time to field the field in which to compute the result status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value previously set in the time field is invalid, this will be set to an error status.
Returns
the difference, either positive or negative, between this calendar's time and when, in terms of field.
Deprecated:
ICU 2.6. Use fieldDifference(UDate when, UCalendarDateFields field, UErrorCode& status).
◆ fieldDifference() [2/2]

Return the difference between the given time and the time this calendar object is set to.

◆ get()

Gets the value for a given time field.

Recalculate the current time field values if the time value has been changed by a call to setTime(). Return zero for unset fields if any fields have been explicitly set by a call to set(). To force a recomputation of all fields regardless of the previous state, call complete(). This method is semantically const, but may alter the object in memory.

Parameters
field The given time field. status Fill-in parameter which receives the status of the operation.
Returns
The value for the given time field, or zero if the field is unset, and set() has been called for any other field.
Stable:
ICU 2.6.
◆ getActualMaximum()

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.

The version of this function on Calendar uses an iterative algorithm to determine the actual maximum value for the field. There is almost always a more efficient way to accomplish this (in most cases, you can simply return getMaximum()). GregorianCalendar overrides this function with a more efficient implementation.

Parameters
field the field to determine the maximum of status Fill-in parameter which receives the status of this operation.
Returns

For the Gregorian calendar, this is the same as getMinimum() and getGreatestMinimum().

The version of this function on Calendar uses an iterative algorithm to determine the actual minimum value for the field. There is almost always a more efficient way to accomplish this (in most cases, you can simply return getMinimum()). GregorianCalendar overrides this function with a more efficient implementation.

Parameters
field the field to determine the minimum of status Fill-in parameter which receives the status of this operation.
Returns
the minimum of the given field for the current date of this Calendar
Deprecated:

◆ getDayOfWeekType()

Returns whether the given day of the week is a weekday, a weekend day, or a day that transitions from one to the other, for the locale and calendar system associated with this Calendar (the locale's region is often the most determinant factor).

If a transition occurs at midnight, then the days before and after the transition will have the type UCAL_WEEKDAY or UCAL_WEEKEND. If a transition occurs at a time other than midnight, then the day of the transition will have the type UCAL_WEEKEND_ONSET or UCAL_WEEKEND_CEASE.

◆ handleComputeFields() virtual void icu::Calendar::handleComputeFields ( int32_t  julianDay, UErrorCodestatus  ) protectedvirtual

Subclasses may override this method to compute several fields specific to each calendar system.

These are:

Subclasses can refer to the DAY_OF_WEEK and DOW_LOCAL fields, which will be set when this method is called. Subclasses can also call the getGregorianXxx() methods to obtain Gregorian calendar equivalents for the given Julian day.

In addition, subclasses should compute any subclass-specific fields, that is, fields from BASE_FIELD_COUNT to getFieldCount() - 1.

The default implementation in Calendar implements a pure proleptic Gregorian calendar.

Stable:
ICU 2.0
◆ pinField()

Adjust the specified field so that it is within the allowable range for the date to which this calendar is set.

For example, in a Gregorian calendar pinning the DAY_OF_MONTH field for a calendar set to April 31 would cause it to be set to April 30.

Subclassing:
This utility method is intended for use by subclasses that need to implement their own overrides of roll and add.

Note: pinField is implemented in terms of getActualMinimum and getActualMaximum. If either of those methods uses a slow, iterative algorithm for a particular field, it would be unwise to attempt to call pinField for that field. If you really do need to do so, you should override this method to do something more efficient for that field.

Parameters
field The calendar field whose value should be pinned. status Output param set to failure code on function return when this function fails.

getActualMinimum
getActualMaximum
Stable:

This method modifies this calendar's fields; it is called on a temporary calendar.

Internal:
Do not use. This API is for internal use only.
◆ registerFactory()

Register a new Calendar factory.

The factory will be adopted. INTERNAL in 2.6

Because ICU may choose to cache Calendars internally, this must be called at application startup, prior to any calls to Calendar::createInstance to avoid undefined behavior.

Parameters
toAdopt the factory instance to be adopted status the in/out status code, no special meanings are assigned
Returns
a registry key that can be used to unregister this factory
Internal:
Do not use. This API is for internal use only.
◆ resolveFields()

Given a precedence table, return the newest field combination in the table, or UCAL_FIELD_COUNT if none is found.

The precedence table is a 3-dimensional array of integers. It may be thought of as an array of groups. Each group is an array of lines. Each line is an array of field numbers. Within a line, if all fields are set, then the time stamp of the line is taken to be the stamp of the most recently set field. If any field of a line is unset, then the line fails to match. Within a group, the line with the newest time stamp is selected. The first field of the line is returned to indicate which line matched.

In some cases, it may be desirable to map a line to field that whose stamp is NOT examined. For example, if the best field is DAY_OF_WEEK then the DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH algorithm may be used. In order to do this, insert the value kResolveRemap | F at the start of the line, where F is the desired return field value. This field will NOT be examined; it only determines the return value if the other fields in the line are the newest.

If all lines of a group contain at least one unset field, then no line will match, and the group as a whole will fail to match. In that case, the next group will be processed. If all groups fail to match, then UCAL_FIELD_COUNT is returned.

Internal:
Do not use. This API is for internal use only.
◆ roll() [1/4]

Time Field Rolling function.

Rolls by the given amount on the given time field. For example, to roll the current date up by one day, call roll(Calendar::DATE, +1, status). When rolling on the month or Calendar::MONTH field, other fields like date might conflict and, need to be changed. For instance, rolling the month up on the date 01/31/96 will result in 02/29/96. Rolling by a positive value always means rolling forward in time (unless the limit of the field is reached, in which case it may pin or wrap), so for Gregorian calendar, starting with 100 BC and rolling the year by + 1 results in 99 BC. When eras have a definite beginning and end (as in the Chinese calendar, or as in most eras in the Japanese calendar) then rolling the year past either limit of the era will cause the year to wrap around. When eras only have a limit at one end, then attempting to roll the year past that limit will result in pinning the year at that limit. Note that for most calendars in which era 0 years move forward in time (such as Buddhist, Hebrew, or Islamic), it is possible for add or roll to result in negative years for era 0 (that is the only way to represent years before the calendar epoch). When rolling on the hour-in-day or Calendar::HOUR_OF_DAY field, it will roll the hour value in the range between 0 and 23, which is zero-based.

The only difference between roll() and add() is that roll() does not change the value of more significant fields when it reaches the minimum or maximum of its range, whereas add() does.

Parameters
field The time field. amount Indicates amount to roll. status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value previously set in the time field is invalid, this will be set to an error status.
Deprecated:
ICU 2.6. Use roll(UCalendarDateFields field, int32_t amount, UErrorCode& status) instead.

Reimplemented in icu::GregorianCalendar.

◆ roll() [2/4]

Time Field Rolling function.

Rolls (up/down) a single unit of time on the given time field. For example, to roll the current date up by one day, call roll(Calendar::DATE, true). When rolling on the year or Calendar::YEAR field, it will roll the year value in the range between getMinimum(Calendar::YEAR) and the value returned by getMaximum(Calendar::YEAR). When rolling on the month or Calendar::MONTH field, other fields like date might conflict and, need to be changed. For instance, rolling the month up on the date 01/31/96 will result in 02/29/96. Rolling up always means rolling forward in time (unless the limit of the field is reached, in which case it may pin or wrap), so for Gregorian calendar, starting with 100 BC and rolling the year up results in 99 BC. When eras have a definite beginning and end (as in the Chinese calendar, or as in most eras in the Japanese calendar) then rolling the year past either limit of the era will cause the year to wrap around. When eras only have a limit at one end, then attempting to roll the year past that limit will result in pinning the year at that limit.

NOTE: Do not use this method – use roll(EDateFields, int, UErrorCode&) instead.

Parameters
field The time field. up Indicates if the value of the specified time field is to be rolled up or rolled down. Use true if rolling up, false otherwise. status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value previously set in the time field is invalid or restricted by leniency, this will be set to an error status.
Deprecated:

For example, 2:30 AM on March 13, 2011 in US Eastern time (America/New_York) does not exist because the wall time jump from 1:59 AM EST to 3:00 AM EDT. When UCAL_WALLTIME_FIRST is used, 2:30 AM is interpreted as 30 minutes before 3:00 AM EDT, therefore, it will be resolved as 1:30 AM EST. When UCAL_WALLTIME_LAST is used, 2:30 AM is interpreted as 31 minutes after 1:59 AM EST, therefore, it will be resolved as 3:30 AM EDT. When UCAL_WALLTIME_NEXT_VALID is used, 2:30 AM will be resolved as next valid wall time, that is 3:00 AM EDT. The default value is UCAL_WALLTIME_LAST.

Note:This option is effective only when this calendar is lenient. When the calendar is strict, such non-existing wall time will cause an error.

Parameters
option the behavior for handling skipped wall time at positive time zone offset transitions, one of UCAL_WALLTIME_FIRST, UCAL_WALLTIME_LAST and UCAL_WALLTIME_NEXT_VALID.

◆ setTemporalMonthCode() virtual void icu::Calendar::setTemporalMonthCode ( const char *  temporalMonth, UErrorCodestatus  ) virtual

Sets The Temporal monthCode which is a string identifier that starts with the literal grapheme "M" followed by two graphemes representing the zero-padded month number of the current month in a normal (non-leap) year and suffixed by an optional literal grapheme "L" if this is a leap month in a lunisolar calendar.

The 25 possible values are "M01" .. "M13" and "M01L" .. "M12L". For Hebrew calendar, the values are "M01" .. "M12" for non-leap years, and "M01" .. "M05", "M05L", "M06" .. "M12" for leap year. For the Chinese calendar, the values are "M01" .. "M12" for non-leap year and in leap year with another monthCode in "M01L" .. "M12L". For Coptic and Ethiopian calendar, the Temporal monthCode values for any years are "M01" to "M13".

Parameters
temporalMonth The value to be set for temporal monthCode. status ICU Error Code

◆ setTime()

Sets this Calendar's current time with the given UDate.

The time specified should be in non-local UTC (GMT) time.

Parameters
date The given UDate in UTC (GMT) time. status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value set in the time field is invalid or restricted by leniency, this will be set to an error status.

◆ setTimeInMillis() void icu::Calendar::setTimeInMillis ( double  millis, UErrorCodestatus  ) protected

Sets this Calendar's current time from the given long value.

Parameters
millis the new time in UTC milliseconds from the epoch. status Output param set to success/failure code on exit. If any value previously set in the time field is invalid or restricted by leniency, this will be set to an error status.
Stable:
ICU 2.0
◆ setTimeZone() void icu::Calendar::setTimeZone ( const TimeZonezone )

Sets the calendar's time zone to be the same as the one passed in.

The TimeZone passed in is not adopted; the client is still responsible for deleting it.

Parameters
zone The given time zone.
Stable:
ICU 2.0
◆ unregister()

Unregister a previously-registered CalendarFactory using the key returned from the register call.

Key becomes invalid after a successful call and should not be used again. The CalendarFactory corresponding to the key will be deleted. INTERNAL in 2.6

Because ICU may choose to cache Calendars internally, this should be called during application shutdown, after all calls to Calendar::createInstance to avoid undefined behavior.

Parameters
key the registry key returned by a previous call to registerFactory status the in/out status code, no special meanings are assigned
Returns
true if the factory for the key was successfully unregistered

◆ validateField()

Validate a single field of this calendar.

Subclasses should override this method to validate any calendar-specific fields. Generic fields can be handled by Calendar::validateField().

Internal:
Do not use. This API is for internal use only.
◆ weekNumber() [1/2] int32_t icu::Calendar::weekNumber ( int32_t  dayOfPeriod, int32_t  dayOfWeek  ) inlineprotected

Return the week number of a day, within a period.

This may be the week number in a year, or the week number in a month. Usually this will be a value >= 1, but if some initial days of the period are excluded from week 1, because getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek is > 1, then the week number will be zero for those initial days. This method requires the day of week for the given date in order to determine the result.

Subclassing:
This method is intended for use by subclasses in implementing their computeTime and/or computeFields methods. It is often useful in getActualMinimum and getActualMaximum as well.

Parameters
dayOfPeriod The DAY_OF_YEAR or DAY_OF_MONTH whose week number is desired. Should be 1 for the first day of the period. dayOfWeek The DAY_OF_WEEK for the day corresponding to the dayOfPeriod parameter. 1-based with 1=Sunday.
Returns
The week number (one-based), or zero if the day falls before the first week because getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek is more than one.

◆ weekNumber() [2/2] int32_t icu::Calendar::weekNumber ( int32_t  desiredDay, int32_t  dayOfPeriod, int32_t  dayOfWeek  ) protected

Return the week number of a day, within a period.

This may be the week number in a year or the week number in a month. Usually this will be a value >= 1, but if some initial days of the period are excluded from week 1, because getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek is > 1, then the week number will be zero for those initial days. This method requires the day number and day of week for some known date in the period in order to determine the day of week on the desired day.

Subclassing:
This method is intended for use by subclasses in implementing their computeTime and/or computeFields methods. It is often useful in getActualMinimum and getActualMaximum as well.

This variant is handy for computing the week number of some other day of a period (often the first or last day of the period) when its day of the week is not known but the day number and day of week for some other day in the period (e.g. the current date) is known.

Parameters
desiredDay The DAY_OF_YEAR or DAY_OF_MONTH whose week number is desired. Should be 1 for the first day of the period. dayOfPeriod The DAY_OF_YEAR or DAY_OF_MONTH for a day in the period whose DAY_OF_WEEK is specified by the knownDayOfWeek parameter. Should be 1 for first day of period. dayOfWeek The DAY_OF_WEEK for the day corresponding to the knownDayOfPeriod parameter. 1-based with 1=Sunday.
Returns
The week number (one-based), or zero if the day falls before the first week because getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek is more than one.
