# IndianCalendar

`public class IndianCalendar`
`` `extends Calendar` ``

java.lang.Object
↳ | android.icu.util.Calendar
| ↳ | android.icu.util.IndianCalendar

`IndianCalendar` is a subclass of `GregorianCalendar` that numbers years since the birth of the Buddha. This is the civil calendar which is accepted by government of India as Indian National Calendar. The two calendars most widely used in India today are the Vikrama calendar followed in North India and the Shalivahana or Saka calendar which is followed in South India and Maharashtra. A variant of the Shalivahana Calendar was reformed and standardized as the Indian National calendar in 1957.

Some details of Indian National Calendar (to be implemented) : The Months Month Length Start date (Gregorian) ================================================= 1 Chaitra 30/31 March 22* 2 Vaisakha 31 April 21 3 Jyaistha 31 May 22 4 Asadha 31 June 22 5 Sravana 31 July 23 6 Bhadra 31 August 23 7 Asvina 30 September 23 8 Kartika 30 October 23 9 Agrahayana 30 November 22 10 Pausa 30 December 22 11 Magha 30 January 21 12 Phalguna 30 February 20 In leap years, Chaitra has 31 days and starts on March 21 instead. The leap years of Gregorian calendar and Indian National Calendar are in synchornization. So When its a leap year in Gregorian calendar then Chaitra has 31 days. The Years Years are counted in the Saka Era, which starts its year 0 in 78AD (by gregorian calendar). So for eg. 9th June 2006 by Gregorian Calendar, is same as 19th of Jyaistha in 1928 of Saka era by Indian National Calendar.

The Indian Calendar has only one allowable era: `Saka Era`. If the calendar is not in lenient mode (see `setLenient`), dates before 1/1/1 Saka Era are rejected with an `IllegalArgumentException`.

This class should not be subclassed.

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

## Public methods

### getType

    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

    protected void handleComputeFields (int julianDay)

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

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

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.

Parameters
`julianDay` | `int`

### handleComputeMonthStart

    protected int handleComputeMonthStart (int year,
                    int month,
                    boolean useMonth)

Returns the Julian day number of day before the first day of the given month in the given extended year. Subclasses should override this method to implement their calendar system.

Parameters
`year` | `int`: the extended year
`month` | `int`: the zero-based month, or 0 if useMonth is false
`useMonth` | `boolean`: if false, compute the day before the first day of the given year, otherwise, compute the day before the first day of the given month

Returns
`int` | the Julian day number of the day before the first day of the given month and year

### handleGetExtendedYear

    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

    protected int handleGetLimit (int field,
                    int limitType)

Subclass API for defining limits of different types. Subclasses must implement this method to return limits for the following fields:

    ERA
     YEAR
     MONTH
     WEEK_OF_YEAR
     WEEK_OF_MONTH
     DAY_OF_MONTH
     DAY_OF_YEAR
     DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH
     YEAR_WOY
     EXTENDED_YEAR

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

Returns
`int` |

### handleGetMonthLength

    protected int handleGetMonthLength (int extendedYear,
                    int month)

Returns the number of days in the given month of the given extended year of this calendar system. Subclasses should override this method if they can provide a more correct or more efficient implementation than the default implementation in Calendar.

Parameters
`extendedYear` | `int`
`month` | `int`

Returns
`int` |

### handleGetYearLength

    protected int handleGetYearLength (int extendedYear)

Returns the number of days in the given extended year of this calendar system. Subclasses should override this method if they can provide a more correct or more efficient implementation than the default implementation in Calendar.

Parameters
`extendedYear` | `int`

Returns
`int` |
