class:Month [CHANGED]
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<Month>, Constable, TemporalAccessor, TemporalAdjuster 
    public enum Month
extends Enum<Month>
implements TemporalAccessor, TemporalAdjuster
    A month-of-year, such as 'July'.

    Month is an enum representing the 12 months of the year - January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December.

    In addition to the textual enum name, each month-of-year has an int value. The int value follows normal usage and the ISO-8601 standard, from 1 (January) to 12 (December). It is recommended that applications use the enum rather than the int value to ensure code clarity.

    Do not use ordinal() to obtain the numeric representation of Month. Use getValue() instead.

    This enum represents a common concept that is found in many calendar systems. As such, this enum may be used by any calendar system that has the month-of-year concept defined exactly equivalent to the ISO-8601 calendar system.

    Implementation Requirements:
    This is an immutable and thread-safe enum.
    Since:
    1.8

method:of(int) [NONE]

  • of

    public static Month of​(int month)
    Obtains an instance of Month from an int value.

    Month is an enum representing the 12 months of the year. This factory allows the enum to be obtained from the int value. The int value follows the ISO-8601 standard, from 1 (January) to 12 (December).

    Parameters:

method:from(java.time.temporal.TemporalAccessor) [NONE]

  • from

    public static Month from​(TemporalAccessor temporal)
    Obtains an instance of Month from a temporal object.

    This obtains a month based on the specified temporal. A TemporalAccessor represents an arbitrary set of date and time information, which this factory converts to an instance of Month.

    The conversion extracts the MONTH_OF_YEAR field. The extraction is only permitted if the temporal object has an ISO chronology, or can be converted to a LocalDate.

    This method matches the signature of the functional interface TemporalQuery allowing it to be used as a query via method reference, Month::from.

    Parameters:
    temporal - the temporal object to convert, not null
    Returns:
    the month-of-year, not null
    Throws:
    DateTimeException - if unable to convert to a Month

method:getValue() [NONE]

  • getValue

    public int getValue()
    Gets the month-of-year int value.

    The values are numbered following the ISO-8601 standard, from 1 (January) to 12 (December).

method:getDisplayName(java.time.format.TextStyle,java.util.Locale) [NONE]

  • getDisplayName

    public String getDisplayName​(TextStyle style,
                             Locale locale)
    Gets the textual representation, such as 'Jan' or 'December'.

    This returns the textual name used to identify the month-of-year, suitable for presentation to the user. The parameters control the style of the returned text and the locale.

    If no textual mapping is found then the numeric value is returned.

    Parameters:
    style - the length of the text required, not null
    locale - the locale to use, not null
    Returns:
    the text value of the month-of-year, not null

method:isSupported(java.time.temporal.TemporalField) [NONE]

  • isSupported

    public boolean isSupported​(TemporalField field)
    Checks if the specified field is supported.

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

    If the field is MONTH_OF_YEAR then this method returns true. 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.

    Specified by:
    isSupported in interface TemporalAccessor
    Parameters:
    field - the field to check, null returns false
    Returns:
    true if the field is supported on this month-of-year, false if not

method:range(java.time.temporal.TemporalField) [NONE]

  • range

    public ValueRange range​(TemporalField field)
    Gets the range of valid values for the specified field.

    The range object expresses the minimum and maximum valid values for a field. This month is used to enhance the accuracy of the returned range. If it is not possible to return the range, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.

    If the field is MONTH_OF_YEAR then the range of the month-of-year, from 1 to 12, will be returned. All other ChronoField instances will throw an UnsupportedTemporalTypeException.

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

    Specified by:
    range in interface TemporalAccessor
    Parameters:
    field - the field to query the range for, not null
    Returns:
    the range of valid values for the field, not null
    Throws:
    DateTimeException - if the range for the field cannot be obtained
    UnsupportedTemporalTypeException - if the field is not supported

method:get(java.time.temporal.TemporalField) [NONE]

  • get

    public int get​(TemporalField field)
    Gets the value of the specified field from this month-of-year as an int.

    This queries this month for the value of the specified field. The returned value will always be within the valid range of values for the field. If it is not possible to return the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.

    If the field is MONTH_OF_YEAR then the value of the month-of-year, from 1 to 12, will be returned. All other ChronoField instances will throw an UnsupportedTemporalTypeException.

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument. Whether the value can be obtained, and what the value represents, is determined by the field.

    Specified by:
    get in interface TemporalAccessor
    Parameters:
    field - the field to get, not null
    Returns:
    the value for the field, within the valid range of values
    Throws:
    DateTimeException - if a value for the field cannot be obtained or the value is outside the range of valid values for the field
    UnsupportedTemporalTypeException - if the field is not supported or the range of values exceeds an int
    ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs

method:getLong(java.time.temporal.TemporalField) [NONE]

  • getLong

    public long getLong​(TemporalField field)
    Gets the value of the specified field from this month-of-year as a long.

    This queries this month for the value of the specified field. If it is not possible to return the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.

    If the field is MONTH_OF_YEAR then the value of the month-of-year, from 1 to 12, will be returned. All other ChronoField instances will throw an UnsupportedTemporalTypeException.

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument. Whether the value can be obtained, and what the value represents, is determined by the field.

    Specified by:
    getLong in interface TemporalAccessor
    Parameters:
    field - the field to get, not null
    Returns:
    the value for the field
    Throws:

method:firstDayOfYear(boolean) [NONE]

  • firstDayOfYear

    public int firstDayOfYear​(boolean leapYear)
    Gets the day-of-year corresponding to the first day of this month.

    This returns the day-of-year that this month begins on, using the leap year flag to determine the length of February.

    Parameters:
    leapYear - true if the length is required for a leap year
    Returns:
    the day of year corresponding to the first day of this month, from 1 to 336

method:firstMonthOfQuarter() [NONE]

  • firstMonthOfQuarter

    public Month firstMonthOfQuarter()
    Gets the month corresponding to the first month of this quarter.

    The year can be divided into four quarters. This method returns the first month of the quarter for the base month. January, February and March return January. April, May and June return April. July, August and September return July. October, November and December return October.

    Returns:
    the first month of the quarter corresponding to this month, not null

method:query(java.time.temporal.TemporalQuery) [NONE]

  • query

    public <R> R query​(TemporalQuery<R> query)
    Queries this month-of-year using the specified query.

    This queries this month-of-year using the specified query strategy object. The TemporalQuery object defines the logic to be used to obtain the result. Read the documentation of the query to understand what the result of this method will be.

    The result of this method is obtained by invoking the TemporalQuery.queryFrom(TemporalAccessor) method on the specified query passing this as the argument.

    Specified by:
    query in interface TemporalAccessor
    Type Parameters:
    R - the type of the result
    Parameters:
    query - the query to invoke, not null
    Returns:
    the query result, null may be returned (defined by the query)
    Throws:
    DateTimeException - if unable to query (defined by the query)
    ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs (defined by the query)

method:adjustInto(java.time.temporal.Temporal) [NONE]

  • adjustInto

    public Temporal adjustInto​(Temporal temporal)
    Adjusts the specified temporal object to have this month-of-year.

    This returns a temporal object of the same observable type as the input with the month-of-year changed to be the same as this.

    The adjustment is equivalent to using Temporal.with(TemporalField, long) passing ChronoField.MONTH_OF_YEAR as the field. If the specified temporal object does not use the ISO calendar system then a DateTimeException is thrown.

    In most cases, it is clearer to reverse the calling pattern by using Temporal.with(TemporalAdjuster):

       // these two lines are equivalent, but the second approach is recommended
   temporal = thisMonth.adjustInto(temporal);
   temporal = temporal.with(thisMonth);

    For example, given a date in May, the following are output:

       dateInMay.with(JANUARY);    // four months earlier
   dateInMay.with(APRIL);      // one months earlier
   dateInMay.with(MAY);        // same date
   dateInMay.with(JUNE);       // one month later
   dateInMay.with(DECEMBER);   // seven months later

    This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

    Specified by:
    adjustInto in interface TemporalAdjuster
    Parameters:
    temporal - the target object to be adjusted, not null
    Returns:
    the adjusted object, not null
    Throws:
    DateTimeException - if unable to make the adjustment
    ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs
