This date operates using the Pax calendar.
This calendar system is a proposed reform calendar system, and is not in common use.
The Pax differs from the Gregorian in terms of month count and length, and the leap year rule.
Dates are aligned such that 0001-01-01 (Pax) is 0000-12-31 (ISO).
More information is available in the Pax Calendar Wikipedia article.
This class must be treated as a value type. Do not synchronize, rely on the identity hash code or use the distinction between equals() and ==.

In cases like this, the field is responsible for resolving the result. Typically it will choose the previous valid date, which would be the last valid day of February in this example.

| plusMonths | back to summary |
|---|---|
| pack-priv PaxDate plusMonths(long monthsToAdd) Overrides org. Returns a copy of this This method adds the specified amount to the months field in three steps:
For example, 2006-12-13 plus one month would result in the invalid date 2006-13-13. Instead of returning an invalid result, the last valid day of the month, 2006-13-07, is selected instead. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
| |
| plusYears | back to summary |
|---|---|
| pack-priv PaxDate plusYears(long yearsToAdd) Overrides org. Returns a copy of this This method adds the specified amount to the years field in two steps:
In the Pax Calendar, the month of December is 13 in non-leap-years, and 14 in leap years. Shifting the index of the month thus means the month would still be the same. In the case of moving from the inserted leap-month (destination year is non-leap), the month index is retained. This has the effect of retaining the same day-of-year. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
