public final class MinguoDate extends Object implements ChronoLocalDate, 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)
.
This is a value-based
class; use of identity-sensitive operations (including reference equality
(==
), identity hash code, or synchronization) on instances of
MinguoDate
may have unpredictable results and should be avoided.
The equals
method should be used for comparisons.
- Implementation Requirements:
- This class is immutable and thread-safe.
- Since:
- 1.8

Method Details
-
now
Obtains the currentMinguoDate
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.
- Returns:
- the current date using the system clock and default time-zone, not null
-
now
Obtains the currentMinguoDate
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
- the zone ID to use, not null- Returns:
- the current date using the system clock, not null
-
now
Obtains the currentMinguoDate
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
- the clock to use, not null- Returns:
- the current date, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if the current date cannot be obtained
-
of
Obtains aMinguoDate
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.- Parameters:
prolepticYear
- the Minguo proleptic-yearmonth
- the Minguo month-of-year, from 1 to 12dayOfMonth
- the Minguo day-of-month, from 1 to 31- Returns:
- the date in Minguo calendar system, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if the value of any field is out of range, or if the day-of-month is invalid for the month-year
-
from
Obtains aMinguoDate
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 ofMinguoDate
.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
.- Parameters:
temporal
- the temporal object to convert, not null- Returns:
- the date in Minguo calendar system, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if unable to convert to aMinguoDate
- See Also:
Chronology.date(TemporalAccessor)
-
getChronology
Gets the chronology of this date, which is the Minguo calendar system.The
Chronology
represents the calendar system in use. The era and other fields inChronoField
are defined by the chronology.- Specified by:
getChronology
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Returns:
- the Minguo chronology, not null
-
getEra
Gets the era applicable at this date.The Minguo calendar system has two eras, 'ROC' and 'BEFORE_ROC', defined by
MinguoEra
.- Specified by:
getEra
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Returns:
- the era applicable at this date, not null
-
lengthOfMonth
public int lengthOfMonth()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.
- Specified by:
lengthOfMonth
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Returns:
- the length of the month in days
-
with
Description copied from interface:ChronoLocalDate
Returns an object of the same type as this object with the specified field altered.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.
- Specified by:
with
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Specified by:
with
in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
field
- the field to set in the result, not nullnewValue
- the new value of the field in the result- Returns:
- an object of the same type with the specified field set, not null
-
with
Returns an adjusted object of the same type as this object with the adjustment made.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 Adjusters date = date.with(next(WEDNESDAY)); // static import from Adjusters and DayOfWeek
- Specified by:
with
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Specified by:
with
in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
adjuster
- the adjuster to use, not null- Returns:
- an object of the same type with the specified adjustment made, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if unable to make the adjustmentArithmeticException
- if numeric overflow occurs
-
plus
Returns an object of the same type as this object with an amount added.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 theTemporalAmount
interface, such asDuration
.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 byminus
is not guaranteed to return the same date-time.- Specified by:
plus
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Specified by:
plus
in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
amount
- the amount to add, not null- Returns:
- an object of the same type with the specified adjustment made, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if the addition cannot be madeArithmeticException
- if numeric overflow occurs
-
minus
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
Period
but may be any other type implementing theTemporalAmount
interface, such asDuration
.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 byminus
is not guaranteed to return the same date-time.- Specified by:
minus
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Specified by:
minus
in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
amount
- the amount to subtract, not null- Returns:
- an object of the same type with the specified adjustment made, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException
- if the subtraction cannot be madeArithmeticException
- if numeric overflow occurs
-
plus
Description copied from interface:ChronoLocalDate
Returns an object of the same type as this object with the specified period added.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.

in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
amountToAdd
- the amount of the specified unit to add, may be negativeunit
- the unit of the amount to add, not null- Returns:
- an object of the same type with the specified period added, not null
-
minus
Description copied from interface:ChronoLocalDate
Returns an object of the same type as this object with the specified period subtracted.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.

-
atTime
Description copied from interface:ChronoLocalDate
Combines this date with a time to create aChronoLocalDateTime
.This returns a
ChronoLocalDateTime
formed from this date at the specified time. All possible combinations of date and time are valid.- Specified by:
atTime
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Parameters:
localTime
- the local time to use, not null- Returns:
- the local date-time formed from this date and the specified time, not null
-
equals
Compares this date to another date, including the chronology.Compares this
MinguoDate
with another ensuring that the date is the same.Only objects of type
MinguoDate
are compared, other types return false. To compare the dates of twoTemporalAccessor
instances, including dates in two different chronologies, useChronoField.EPOCH_DAY
as a comparator.- Specified by:
equals
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Parameters:
obj
- the object to check, null returns false- Returns:
- true if this is equal to the other date
- See Also:
Object.hashCode()
,HashMap
-
hashCode
public int hashCode()A hash code for this date.- Specified by:

until
Description copied from interface:ChronoLocalDate
Calculates the amount of time until another date in terms of the specified unit.This calculates the amount of time between two
ChronoLocalDate
objects in terms of a singleTemporalUnit
. The start and end points arethis
and the specified date. The result will be negative if the end is before the start. TheTemporal
passed to this method is converted to aChronoLocalDate
usingChronology.date(TemporalAccessor)
. The calculation returns a whole number, representing the number of complete units between the two dates. For example, the amount in days between two dates can be calculated usingstartDate.until(endDate, DAYS)
.There are two equivalent ways of using this method. The first is to invoke this method. The second is to use
TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal)
:// these two lines are equivalent amount = start.until(end, MONTHS); amount = MONTHS.between(start, end);
The choice should be made based on which makes the code more readable.The calculation is implemented in this method for
ChronoUnit
. The unitsDAYS
,WEEKS
,MONTHS
,YEARS
,DECADES
,CENTURIES
,MILLENNIA
andERAS
should be supported by all implementations. OtherChronoUnit
values will throw an exception.If the unit is not a
ChronoUnit
, then the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal)
passingthis
as the first argument and the converted input temporal as the second argument.This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
- Specified by:
until
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Specified by:
until
in interfaceTemporal
- Parameters:
endExclusive
- the end date, exclusive, which is converted to aChronoLocalDate
in the same chronology, not nullunit
- the unit to measure the amount in, not null- Returns:
- the amount of time between this date and the end date
-
toString
Description copied from class:Object
Returns a string representation of the object. In general, thetoString
method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.The
toString
method for classObject
returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@
', and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the value of:getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
- Specified by:
toString
in interfaceChronoLocalDate
- Overrides:
toString
in classObject
- Returns:
- a string representation of the object.
