/**
 * Chronology provides access to the individual date time fields for a
 * chronological calendar system.
 * 

* Various chronologies are supported by subclasses including ISO * and GregorianJulian. To construct a Chronology you should use the * factory methods on the chronology subclass in the chrono package. *

* For example, to obtain the current time in the coptic calendar system: *

 * DateTime dt = new DateTime(CopticChronology.getInstance());
 * 
*

* The provided chronology implementations are: *

    *
  • ISO - The de facto world calendar system, based on the ISO-8601 standard *
  • GJ - Historically accurate calendar with Julian followed by Gregorian *
  • Gregorian - The Gregorian calendar system used for all time (proleptic) *
  • Julian - The Julian calendar system used for all time (proleptic) *
  • Buddhist - The Buddhist calendar system which is an offset in years from GJ *
  • Coptic - The Coptic calendar system which defines 30 day months *
  • Ethiopic - The Ethiopic calendar system which defines 30 day months *
  • Islamic - The Islamic, or Hijri, lunar calendar system *
* Hopefully future releases will contain more chronologies. *

* This class defines a number of fields with names from the ISO8601 standard. * It does not 'strongly' define these fields however, thus implementations * are free to interpret the field names as they wish. * For example, a week could be defined as 10 days and a month as 40 days in a * special WeirdChronology implementation. Clearly the GJ and ISO * implementations provided use the field names as you would expect. * * @see org.joda.time.chrono.ISOChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.GJChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.GregorianChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.JulianChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.CopticChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.BuddhistChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.EthiopicChronology * @see org.joda.time.chrono.IslamicChronology * * @author Stephen Colebourne * @author Brian S O'Neill * @since 1.0 */ public abstract class Chronology { /** * Returns the DateTimeZone that this Chronology operates in, or null if * unspecified. * * @return the DateTimeZone, null if unspecified */ public abstract DateTimeZone getZone(); /** * Returns an instance of this Chronology that operates in the UTC time * zone.
