public:
virtual bool IsLeapYear(
	int year, 
	int era
) override

Parameters

year
Type: System::Int32
An integer that represents the year.
era
Type: System::Int32
An integer that represents the era.

true if the specified year is a leap year; otherwise, false.

ExceptionCondition

era is outside the range supported by the calendar.

Leap years in the Korean calendar correspond to the same leap years in the Gregorian calendar. A leap year in the Gregorian calendar is defined as a Gregorian year that is evenly divisible by four, except if it is divisible by 100. However, Gregorian years that are divisible by 400 are leap years. A common year has 365 days and a leap year has 366 days.

The following example calls IsLeapYear for five years in each of the eras.


using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;
int main()
{

   // Creates and initializes a KoreanCalendar.
   KoreanCalendar^ myCal = gcnew KoreanCalendar;

   // Displays the header.
   Console::Write( "YEAR\t" );
   for ( int y = 4334; y <= 4338; y++ )
      Console::Write( "\t {0}", y );
   Console::WriteLine();

   // Checks five years in the current era.
   Console::Write( "CurrentEra:" );
   for ( int y = 4334; y <= 4338; y++ )
      Console::Write( "\t {0}", myCal->IsLeapYear( y, KoreanCalendar::CurrentEra ) );
   Console::WriteLine();

   // Checks five years in each of the eras.
   for ( int i = 0; i < myCal->Eras->Length; i++ )
   {
      Console::Write( "Era {0}:\t", myCal->Eras[ i ] );
      for ( int y = 4334; y <= 4338; y++ )
         Console::Write( "\t {0}", myCal->IsLeapYear( y, myCal->Eras[ i ] ) );
      Console::WriteLine();

   }
}
