29 * Concrete class which provides the Japanese calendar.
30 * <P>
31 * <code>JapaneseCalendar</code> is a subclass of <code>GregorianCalendar</code>
32 * that numbers years and eras based on the reigns of the Japanese emperors.
33 * The Japanese calendar is identical to the Gregorian calendar in all respects
34 * except for the year and era. The ascension of each emperor to the throne
35 * begins a new era, and the years of that era are numbered starting with the
36 * year of ascension as year 1.
37 * <p>
38 * Note that in the year of an imperial ascension, there are two possible sets
39 * of year and era values: that for the old era and for the new. For example, a
40 * new era began on January 7, 1989 AD. Strictly speaking, the first six days
41 * of that year were in the Showa era, e.g. "January 6, 64 Showa", while the rest
42 * of the year was in the Heisei era, e.g. "January 7, 1 Heisei". This class
43 * handles this distinction correctly when computing dates. However, in lenient
44 * mode either form of date is acceptable as input.
45 * <p>
46 * In modern times, eras have started on January 8, 1868 AD, Gregorian (Meiji),
47 * July 30, 1912 (Taisho), December 25, 1926 (Showa), and January 7, 1989 (Heisei). Constants
48 * for these eras, suitable for use in the <code>UCAL_ERA</code> field, are provided
49 * in this class. Note that the <em>number</em> used for each era is more or
50 * less arbitrary. Currently, the era starting in 1053 AD is era #0; however this
51 * may change in the future as we add more historical data. Use the predefined
52 * constants rather than using actual, absolute numbers.
53 * <p>
