The class Era represents a calendar era that defines a period of time in which the same year numbering is used. For example, Gregorian year 2004 is Heisei 16 in the Japanese calendar system. An era starts at any point of time (Gregorian) that is represented by CalendarDate.

Eras that are applicable to a particular calendar system can be obtained by calling CalendarSystem.getEras one of which can be used to specify a date in CalendarDate.

The following era names are defined in this release.

Constructs an Era instance.
Params:
  • name – the era name (e.g., "BeforeCommonEra" for the Julian calendar system)

  • localTime – true if since specifies a local time; false if since specifies UTC
