`ChineseCalendar` is a concrete subclass of `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/icu/util/Calendar`
that implements a traditional Chinese calendar. The traditional Chinese
calendar is a lunisolar calendar: Each month starts on a new moon, and
the months are numbered according to solar events, specifically, to
guarantee that month 11 always contains the winter solstice. In order
to accomplish this, leap months are inserted in certain years. Leap
months are numbered the same as the month they follow. The decision of
which month is a leap month depends on the relative movements of the sun
and moon.

All astronomical computations are performed with respect to a time
zone of GMT+8:00 and a longitude of 120 degrees east. Although some
calendars implement a historically more accurate convention of using
Beijing's local longitude (116 degrees 25 minutes east) and time zone
(GMT+7:45:40) for dates before 1929, we do not implement this here.

Years are counted in two different ways in the Chinese calendar. The
first method is by sequential numbering from the 61st year of the reign
of Huang Di, 2637 BCE, which is designated year 1 on the Chinese
calendar. The second method uses 60-year cycles from the same starting
point, which is designated year 1 of cycle 1. In this class, the
`EXTENDED_YEAR` field contains the sequential year count.
The `ERA` field contains the cycle number, and the
`YEAR` field contains the year of the cycle, a value between
1 and 60.

There is some variation in what is considered the starting point of
the calendar, with some sources starting in the first year of the reign
of Huang Di, rather than the 61st. This gives continuous year numbers
60 years greater and cycle numbers one greater than what this class
implements.

Because `ChineseCalendar` defines an additional field and
redefines the way the `ERA` field is used, it requires a new
format class, `ChineseDateFormat`. As always, use the
methods `DateFormat.getXxxInstance(Calendar cal,...)` to
obtain a formatter for this calendar.

### ChineseCalendar

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public ChineseCalendar (Date date)
```

Construct a `ChineseCalendar` with the give date set in the default time zone
with the default locale.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `date` | `Date`: The date to which the new calendar is set. <br /> |

### ChineseCalendar

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public ChineseCalendar (Locale aLocale)
```

Constructs a `ChineseCalendar` based on the current time
in the default time zone with the given locale.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `aLocale` | `Locale`: The given locale <br /> |

## Public methods

### add

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public void add (int field, 
                int amount)
```

Override Calendar to handle leap months properly.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `field` | `int`: the time field. <br /> |
| `amount` | `int`: the amount to add to the field. <br /> |

### getActualMaximum

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public int getActualMaximum (int field)
```

Returns the maximum value that this field could have, given the
current date. For example, with the Gregorian date February 3, 1997
and the `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/icu/util/Calendar#DAY_OF_MONTH` field, the actual maximum
is 28; for February 3, 1996 it is 29.

The actual maximum computation ignores smaller fields and the
current value of like-sized fields. For example, the actual maximum
of the DAY_OF_YEAR or MONTH depends only on the year and supra-year
fields. The actual maximum of the DAY_OF_MONTH depends, in
addition, on the MONTH field and any other fields at that
granularity (such as IS_LEAP_MONTH). The
DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH field does not depend on the current
DAY_OF_WEEK; it returns the maximum for any day of week in the
current month. Likewise for the WEEK_OF_MONTH and WEEK_OF_YEAR
fields.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `field` | `int`: the field whose maximum is desired <br /> |

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `int` | the maximum of the given field for the current date of this calendar <br /> |

### getTemporalMonthCode

Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public String getTemporalMonthCode ()
```

Gets The Temporal monthCode value corresponding to the month for the date.
The value 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. For the Chinese calendar, the values are "M01" .. "M12" for
non-leap year and \* in leap year with another monthCode in "M01L" .. "M12L".

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/String` | One of 24 possible strings in {"M01".."M12", "M01L".."M12L"}. <br /> |

### getType

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
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

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/String` | legacy calendar type name string <br /> |

### inTemporalLeapYear

Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

field values if the time value has been changed by a call to setTime().
This method is semantically const, but may alter the object in memory.
A "leap year" is a year that contains more days than other years (for
solar or lunar calendars) or more months than other years (for lunisolar
calendars like Hebrew or Chinese), as defined in the ECMAScript Temporal
proposal.

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `boolean` | true if the date in the fields is in a Temporal proposal defined leap year. False otherwise. <br /> |

### roll

Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public void roll (int field, 
                int amount)
```

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `field` | `int`: the calendar field to roll. <br /> |
| `amount` | `int`: the amount by which the field should be rolled. <br /> |

### setTemporalMonthCode

Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public void setTemporalMonthCode (String temporalMonth)
```

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.
For the Chinese calendar, the values are "M01" .. "M12" for non-leap year and
in leap year with another monthCode in "M01L" .. "M12L".

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `temporalMonth` | `String`: One of 25 possible strings in {"M01".. "M12", "M13", "M01L", "M12L"}. <br /> |

```

Override Calendar to compute several fields specific to the Chinese
calendar system. These are:

- ERA
- YEAR
- MONTH
- DAY_OF_MONTH
- DAY_OF_YEAR
- EXTENDED_YEAR

The DAY_OF_WEEK and DOW_LOCAL fields are already set when this method is called. The getGregorianXxx() methods return Gregorian calendar equivalents for the given Julian day.
