Class Overview

Implements the Ethiopic calendar system, which defines every fourth year as leap, much like the Julian calendar. The year is broken down into 12 months, each 30 days in length. An extra period at the end of the year is either 5 or 6 days in length. In this implementation, it is considered a 13th month.

Year 1 in the Ethiopic calendar began on August 29, 8 CE (Julian), thus Ethiopic years do not begin at the same time as Julian years. This chronology is not proleptic, as it does not allow dates before the first Ethiopic year.

This implementation defines a day as midnight to midnight exactly as per the ISO chronology. Some references indicate that a coptic day starts at sunset on the previous ISO day, but this has not been confirmed and is not implemented.

EthiopicChronology is thread-safe and immutable.

millisOfDay	millisecond to use

Returns

millisecond instant from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z

Throws

IllegalArgumentException

public long getDateTimeMillis (int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth, int hourOfDay, int minuteOfHour, int secondOfMinute, int millisOfSecond)

Returns a datetime millisecond instant, formed from the given year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisecond values. The set of given values must refer to a valid datetime, or else an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

The default implementation calls upon separate DateTimeFields to determine the result. Subclasses are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation.

Parameters

year	year to use
monthOfYear	month to use
dayOfMonth	day of month to use
hourOfDay	hour to use
minuteOfHour	minute to use
secondOfMinute	second to use
millisOfSecond	millisecond to use

DateTimeZone null if unspecified

public int hashCode ()

A suitable hash code for the chronology.

Returns

the hash code

public String toString ()

Gets a debugging toString.

Returns

a debugging string

public Chronology withUTC ()

Gets the Chronology in the UTC time zone.
