JapaneseDate

class JapaneseDate : ChronoLocalDate, Temporal, TemporalAdjuster, Serializable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ java.time.chrono.JapaneseDate

A date in the Japanese Imperial calendar system.

This date operates using the Japanese Imperial calendar. This calendar system is primarily used in Japan.

The Japanese Imperial calendar system is the same as the ISO calendar system apart from the era-based year numbering. The proleptic-year is defined to be equal to the ISO proleptic-year.

Japan introduced the Gregorian calendar starting with Meiji 6. Only Meiji and later eras are supported; dates before Meiji 6, January 1 are not supported.

For example, the Japanese year "Heisei 24" corresponds to ISO year "2012".
Calling japaneseDate.get(YEAR_OF_ERA) will return 24.
Calling japaneseDate.get(YEAR) will return 2012.
Calling japaneseDate.get(ERA) will return 2, corresponding to JapaneseChronology.ERA_HEISEI.

Public methods

atTime

Added in API level 26
fun atTime(localTime: LocalTime!): ChronoLocalDateTime<JapaneseDate!>!
Parameters
localTime LocalTime!: the local time to use, not null
Return
ChronoLocalDateTime<JapaneseDate!>! the local date-time formed from this date and the specified time, not null

equals

Added in API level 26
fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Compares this date to another date, including the chronology.

Compares this JapaneseDate with another ensuring that the date is the same.

Only objects of type JapaneseDate are compared, other types return false. To compare the dates of two TemporalAccessor instances, including dates in two different chronologies, use ChronoField#EPOCH_DAY as a comparator.

Parameters
obj the object to check, null returns false
Return
Boolean true if this is equal to the other date

from

Added in API level 26
static fun from(temporal: TemporalAccessor!): JapaneseDate!

Obtains a JapaneseDate from a temporal object.

This obtains a date in the Japanese 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 JapaneseDate.

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, JapaneseDate::from.

Parameters
temporal TemporalAccessor!: the temporal object to convert, not null
Return
JapaneseDate! the date in Japanese calendar system, not null
Exceptions
java.time.DateTimeException if unable to convert to a JapaneseDate

getChronology

Added in API level 26
fun getChronology(): JapaneseChronology!

Gets the chronology of this date, which is the Japanese calendar system.

The Chronology represents the calendar system in use. The era and other fields in ChronoField are defined by the chronology.

Return
JapaneseChronology! the Japanese chronology, not null

getEra

Added in API level 26
fun getEra(): JapaneseEra!

Gets the era applicable at this date.

The Japanese calendar system has multiple eras defined by JapaneseEra.

Return
JapaneseEra! the era applicable at this date, not null

getLong

Added in API level 26
fun getLong(field: TemporalField!): Long
Parameters
field TemporalField!: the field to get, not null
Return
Long the value for the field
Exceptions
java.time.DateTimeException if a value for the field cannot be obtained
java.time.temporal.UnsupportedTemporalTypeException if the field is not supported
java.lang.ArithmeticException if numeric overflow occurs

hashCode

Added in API level 26
fun hashCode(): Int

A hash code for this date.

Return
Int a suitable hash code based only on the Chronology and the date

isSupported

Added in API level 26
fun isSupported(field: TemporalField!): Boolean

Checks if the specified field is supported.

This checks if this date can be queried for the specified field. If false, then calling the range and get methods will throw an exception.

If the field is a ChronoField then the query is implemented here. The supported fields are:

  • DAY_OF_WEEK
  • DAY_OF_MONTH
  • DAY_OF_YEAR
  • EPOCH_DAY
  • MONTH_OF_YEAR
  • PROLEPTIC_MONTH
  • YEAR_OF_ERA
  • YEAR
  • ERA
All other ChronoField instances will return false.

If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.isSupportedBy(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument. Whether the field is supported is determined by the field.

Parameters
field TemporalField!: the field to check, null returns false
Return
Boolean true if the field is supported on this date, false if not

lengthOfMonth

Added in API level 26
fun lengthOfMonth(): Int

Returns the length of the month represented by this date.

This returns the length of the month in days. Month lengths match those of the ISO calendar system.

Return
Int the length of the month in days

lengthOfYear

Added in API level 26
fun lengthOfYear(): Int
Return
Int the length of the year in days

minus

Added in API level 26
fun minus(amount: TemporalAmount!): JapaneseDate!

Returns an object of the same type as this object with an amount subtracted.

This adjusts this temporal, subtracting according to the rules of the specified amount. The amount is typically a java.time.Period but may be any other type implementing the TemporalAmount interface, such as java.time.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.

Parameters
amount TemporalAmount!: the amount to subtract, not null
Return
JapaneseDate! an object of the same type with the specified adjustment made, not null
Exceptions
java.time.DateTimeException if the subtraction cannot be made

now

Added in API level 26
static fun now(zone: ZoneId!): JapaneseDate!

Obtains the current JapaneseDate 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.

Parameters
zone ZoneId!: the zone ID to use, not null
Return
JapaneseDate! the current date using the system clock, not null

now

Added in API level 26
static fun now(clock: Clock!): JapaneseDate!

Obtains the current JapaneseDate 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.

Parameters
clock Clock!: the clock to use, not null
