A year-month in the ISO-8601 calendar system, such as 2007-12. 
 YearMonth is an immutable date-time object that represents the combination of a year and month. Any field that can be derived from a year and month, such as quarter-of-year, can be obtained. 
 This class does not store or represent a day, time or time-zone. For example, the value "October 2007" can be stored in a YearMonth. 

The ISO-8601 calendar system is the modern civil calendar system used today
in most of the world. It is equivalent to the proleptic Gregorian calendar
system, in which today's rules for leap years are applied for all time.
For most applications written today, the ISO-8601 rules are entirely suitable.
However, any application that makes use of historical dates, and requires them
to be accurate will find the ISO-8601 approach unsuitable.


This is a value-based class; programmers should treat instances that are equal as interchangeable and should not use instances for synchronization, or unpredictable behavior may occur. For example, in a future release, synchronization may fail. The equals method should be used for comparisons. 
Implementation Requirements:
This class is immutable and thread-safe.
Since:1.8

Checks if the specified unit is supported.

 This checks if the specified unit can be added to, or subtracted from, this year-month. If false, then calling the plus(long, TemporalUnit) and minus methods will throw an exception.

Gets the value of the specified field from this year-month as an int. 

This queries this year-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 a ChronoField then the query is implemented here. The supported fields will return valid values based on this year-month, except PROLEPTIC_MONTH which is too large to fit in an int and throw a DateTimeException. 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.

  • field –  the field to get, not null

Checks if the year is a leap year, according to the ISO proleptic
calendar system rules.


This method applies the current rules for leap years across the whole time-line.
In general, a year is a leap year if it is divisible by four without
remainder. However, years divisible by 100, are not leap years, with
the exception of years divisible by 400 which are.


For example, 1904 is a leap year it is divisible by 4.
1900 was not a leap year as it is divisible by 100, however 2000 was a
leap year as it is divisible by 400.


The calculation is proleptic - applying the same rules into the far future and far past.
This is historically inaccurate, but is correct for the ISO-8601 standard.

Returns:true if the year is leap, false otherwise

Returns an adjusted copy of this year-month.

 This returns a YearMonth, based on this one, with the year-month adjusted. The adjustment takes place using the specified adjuster strategy object. Read the documentation of the adjuster to understand what adjustment will be made. 

A simple adjuster might simply set the one of the fields, such as the year field.

Returns a copy of this year-month with the specified field set to a new value.

 This returns a YearMonth, based on this one, with the value for the specified field changed. This can be used to change any supported field, such as the year or month. If it is not possible to set the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown. 
 If the field is a ChronoField then the adjustment is implemented here. The supported fields behave as follows: 
    

  • MONTH_OF_YEAR - Returns a YearMonth with the specified month-of-year. The year will be unchanged. 
  • PROLEPTIC_MONTH - Returns a YearMonth with the specified proleptic-month. This completely replaces the year and month of this object. 
  • YEAR_OF_ERA - Returns a YearMonth with the specified year-of-era The month and era will be unchanged. 
  • YEAR - Returns a YearMonth with the specified year. The month will be unchanged.

Adjusts the specified temporal object to have this year-month.


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

 The adjustment is equivalent to using Temporal.with(TemporalField, long) passing ChronoField.PROLEPTIC_MONTH 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):

Calculates the amount of time until another year-month in terms of the specified unit.

 This calculates the amount of time between two YearMonth objects in terms of a single TemporalUnit. The start and end points are this and the specified year-month. The result will be negative if the end is before the start. The Temporal passed to this method is converted to a YearMonth using from(TemporalAccessor). For example, the amount in years between two year-months can be calculated using startYearMonth.until(endYearMonth, YEARS). 

The calculation returns a whole number, representing the number of
complete units between the two year-months.
For example, the amount in decades between 2012-06 and 2032-05
will only be one decade as it is one month short of two decades.

 There are two equivalent ways of using this method. The first is to invoke this method. The second is to use TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal): 
  // these two lines are equivalent
  amount = start.until(end, MONTHS);
  amount = MONTHS.between(start, end);


The choice should be made based on which makes the code more readable.

 The calculation is implemented in this method for ChronoUnit. The units MONTHS, YEARS, DECADES, CENTURIES, MILLENNIA and ERAS are supported. Other ChronoUnit values will throw an exception. 
 If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal) passing this as the first argument and the converted input temporal as the second argument.
