## Detailed Description

This class defines generic calendar class, it is used by date_time and calendar objects internally. It is less useful for end users, but it is build for localization backend implementation

## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum boost::locale::abstract_calendar::calendar_option_type

Information about calendar

Enumerator
is_gregorian | Check if the calendar is Gregorian.
is_dst | Check if the current time is in daylight time savings.

enum boost::locale::abstract_calendar::update_type

A way to update the value

Enumerator
move | Change the value up or down effecting others for example 1990-12-31 + 1 day = 1991-01-01.
roll | Change the value up or down not effecting others for example 1990-12-31 + 1 day = 1990-12-01.

enum boost::locale::abstract_calendar::value_type

Type that defines how to fetch the value

Enumerator
absolute_minimum | Absolute possible minimum for the value, for example for day is 1.
actual_minimum | Actual minimal value for this period.
greatest_minimum | Maximal minimum value that can be for this period.
current | Current value of this period.
least_maximum | The last maximal value for this period, For example for Gregorian calendar day it is 28
actual_maximum | Actual maximum, for it can be 28, 29, 30, 31 for day according to current month.
absolute_maximum | Maximal value, for Gregorian day it would be 31.

## Member Function Documentation

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::adjust_value | ( | period::marks::period_mark | p,
|  | update_type | u,
|  | int | difference
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Adjust period's p value by difference items using a update_type u. Note: not all values are adjustable

virtual abstract_calendar* boost::locale::abstract_calendar::clone | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

Make a polymorphic copy of the calendar

virtual int boost::locale::abstract_calendar::difference | ( | abstract_calendar const * | other,
|  | period::marks::period_mark | p
| ) |  | const
| pure virtual

Calculate the difference between this calendar and other in p units

virtual int boost::locale::abstract_calendar::get_option | ( | calendar_option_type | opt | ) | const
| pure virtual

Get option for calendar, currently only check if it is Gregorian calendar

virtual posix_time boost::locale::abstract_calendar::get_time | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

Get current time point

virtual std::string boost::locale::abstract_calendar::get_timezone | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

Get current time zone, empty - system one

virtual int boost::locale::abstract_calendar::get_value | ( | period::marks::period_mark | p,
|  | value_type | v
| ) |  | const
| pure virtual

Get specific value for period p according to a value_type v

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::normalize | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

Recalculate all periods after setting them, should be called after use of set_value() function.

virtual bool boost::locale::abstract_calendar::same | ( | abstract_calendar const * | other | ) | const
| pure virtual

Check of two calendars have same rules

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::set_option | ( | calendar_option_type | opt,
|  | int | v
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Set option for calendar, for future use

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::set_time | ( | posix_time const & | p | ) |
| pure virtual

Set current time point

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::set_timezone | ( | std::string const & | tz | ) |
| pure virtual

Set time zone, empty - use system

virtual void boost::locale::abstract_calendar::set_value | ( | period::marks::period_mark | p,
|  | int | value
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Set specific value for period p, note not all values are settable.

After call of set_value you may want to call normalize() function to make sure vall periods are updated, if you set sereral fields that are part of single date/time representation you should call set_value several times and then call normalize().

If normalize() is not called after set_value, the behavior is undefined
