20  * \brief C API: Calendar
21  *
22  * <h2>Calendar C API</h2>
23  *
24  * UCalendar C API is used  for converting between a <code>UDate</code> object
25  * and a set of integer fields such as <code>UCAL_YEAR</code>, <code>UCAL_MONTH</code>,
26  * <code>UCAL_DAY</code>, <code>UCAL_HOUR</code>, and so on.
27  * (A <code>UDate</code> object represents a specific instant in
28  * time with millisecond precision. See UDate
29  * for information about the <code>UDate</code> .)
30  *
31  * <p>
32  * Types of <code>UCalendar</code> interpret a <code>UDate</code>
33  * according to the rules of a specific calendar system. The U_STABLE
34  * provides the enum UCalendarType with UCAL_TRADITIONAL and
35  * UCAL_GREGORIAN.
36  * <p>
37  * Like other locale-sensitive C API, calendar API  provides a
38  * function, <code>ucal_open()</code>, which returns a pointer to
39  * <code>UCalendar</code> whose time fields have been initialized
40  * with the current date and time. We need to specify the type of
41  * calendar to be opened and the  timezoneId.
42  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
43  * <pre>
44  * \code
45  * UCalendar *caldef;
46  * UChar *tzId;
47  * UErrorCode status;
48  * tzId=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (strlen("PST") +1) );
49  * u_uastrcpy(tzId, "PST");
50  * caldef=ucal_open(tzID, u_strlen(tzID), NULL, UCAL_TRADITIONAL, &status);
51  * \endcode
52  * </pre>
53  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
54  *
55  * <p>
56  * A <code>UCalendar</code> object can produce all the time field values
57  * needed to implement the date-time formatting for a particular language
58  * and calendar style (for example, Japanese-Gregorian, Japanese-Traditional).
59  *
60  * <p>
61  * When computing a <code>UDate</code> from time fields, two special circumstances
62  * may arise: there may be insufficient information to compute the
63  * <code>UDate</code> (such as only year and month but no day in the month),
64  * or there may be inconsistent information (such as "Tuesday, July 15, 1996"
65  * -- July 15, 1996 is actually a Monday).
66  *
67  * <p>
68  * <strong>Insufficient information.</strong> The calendar will use default
69  * information to specify the missing fields. This may vary by calendar; for
70  * the Gregorian calendar, the default for a field is the same as that of the
71  * start of the epoch: i.e., UCAL_YEAR = 1970, UCAL_MONTH = JANUARY, UCAL_DATE = 1, etc.
72  *
73  * <p>
74  * <strong>Inconsistent information.</strong> If fields conflict, the calendar
75  * will give preference to fields set more recently. For example, when
76  * determining the day, the calendar will look for one of the following
77  * combinations of fields.  The most recent combination, as determined by the
78  * most recently set single field, will be used.
79  *
80  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
81  * <pre>
82  * \code
83  * UCAL_MONTH + UCAL_DAY_OF_MONTH
84  * UCAL_MONTH + UCAL_WEEK_OF_MONTH + UCAL_DAY_OF_WEEK
85  * UCAL_MONTH + UCAL_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH + UCAL_DAY_OF_WEEK
86  * UCAL_DAY_OF_YEAR
87  * UCAL_DAY_OF_WEEK + UCAL_WEEK_OF_YEAR
88  * \endcode
89  * </pre>
90  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
91  *
92  * For the time of day:
93  *
94  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
95  * <pre>
96  * \code
97  * UCAL_HOUR_OF_DAY
98  * UCAL_AM_PM + UCAL_HOUR
99  * \endcode
100  * </pre>
101  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
102  *
103  * <p>
104  * <strong>Note:</strong> for some non-Gregorian calendars, different
105  * fields may be necessary for complete disambiguation. For example, a full
106  * specification of the historial Arabic astronomical calendar requires year,
107  * month, day-of-month <em>and</em> day-of-week in some cases.
108  *
109  * <p>
110  * <strong>Note:</strong> There are certain possible ambiguities in
111  * interpretation of certain singular times, which are resolved in the
112  * following ways:
113  * <ol>
114  *     <li> 24:00:00 "belongs" to the following day. That is,
115  *          23:59 on Dec 31, 1969 &lt; 24:00 on Jan 1, 1970 &lt; 24:01:00 on Jan 1, 1970
116  *
117  *     <li> Although historically not precise, midnight also belongs to "am",
118  *          and noon belongs to "pm", so on the same day,
119  *          12:00 am (midnight) &lt; 12:01 am, and 12:00 pm (noon) &lt; 12:01 pm
120  * </ol>
121  *
122  * <p>
123  * The date or time format strings are not part of the definition of a
124  * calendar, as those must be modifiable or overridable by the user at
125  * runtime. Use {@link DateFormat}
126  * to format dates.
127  *
128  * <p>
129  * <code>Calendar</code> provides an API for field "rolling", where fields
130  * can be incremented or decremented, but wrap around. For example, rolling the
131  * month up in the date <code>December 12, <b>1996</b></code> results in
132  * <code>January 12, <b>1996</b></code>.
133  *
134  * <p>
135  * <code>Calendar</code> also provides a date arithmetic function for
136  * adding the specified (signed) amount of time to a particular time field.
137  * For example, subtracting 5 days from the date <code>September 12, 1996</code>
138  * results in <code>September 7, 1996</code>.
