HebrewCalendar::GetEra Method
Visual Studio 2010
Returns the era in the specified DateTime.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- time
- Type: System::DateTime
The DateTime to read.
Return Value
Type: System::Int32An integer that represents the era in the specified DateTime. The return value is always HebrewEra.
The Hebrew calendar recognizes two eras: B.C.E. (before the common era) and A.M. (Latin "Anno Mundi", which means "the year of the world"). This implementation of the HebrewCalendar class recognizes only the current era (A.M.) and only the Hebrew years 5343 to 5999 (1583 to 2239 in the Gregorian calendar).
The following code example displays the values of several components of a DateTime in terms of the Hebrew calendar.
using namespace System; using namespace System::Globalization; void DisplayValues( Calendar^ myCal, DateTime myDT ) { Console::WriteLine( " Era: {0}", myCal->GetEra( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine( " Year: {0}", myCal->GetYear( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine( " Month: {0}", myCal->GetMonth( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine( " DayOfYear: {0}", myCal->GetDayOfYear( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine( " DayOfMonth: {0}", myCal->GetDayOfMonth( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine( " DayOfWeek: {0}", myCal->GetDayOfWeek( myDT ) ); Console::WriteLine(); } int main() { // Sets a DateTime to April 3, 2002 of the Gregorian calendar. DateTime myDT = DateTime(2002,4,3,gcnew GregorianCalendar); // Creates an instance of the HebrewCalendar. HebrewCalendar^ myCal = gcnew HebrewCalendar; // Displays the values of the DateTime. Console::WriteLine( "April 3, 2002 of the Gregorian calendar equals the following in the Hebrew calendar:" ); DisplayValues( myCal, myDT ); // Adds two years and ten months. myDT = myCal->AddYears( myDT, 2 ); myDT = myCal->AddMonths( myDT, 10 ); // Displays the values of the DateTime. Console::WriteLine( "After adding two years and ten months:" ); DisplayValues( myCal, myDT ); } /* This code produces the following output. April 3, 2002 of the Gregorian calendar equals the following in the Hebrew calendar: Era: 1 Year: 5762 Month: 7 DayOfYear: 198 DayOfMonth: 21 DayOfWeek: Wednesday After adding two years and ten months: Era: 1 Year: 5765 Month: 5 DayOfYear: 138 DayOfMonth: 21 DayOfWeek: Monday */
