Getting Calendar Type of a Calendar Instance Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar getCalendarType() method. We're creating an instance of a Calendar of current date. Then calendar type is retrieved using getCalendarType() method. We're printing the type thereafter.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Calendar; public class CalendarDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); System.out.println("Calendar Type: " + cal.getCalendarType()); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Calendar Type: gregory
Getting Calendar Type of a GregorianCalendar Instance Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar getCalendarType() method. We're creating an instance of a GregorianCalendar of current date. Then calendar type is retrieved using getCalendarType() method. We're printing the type thereafter.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Calendar; import java.util.GregorianCalendar; public class CalendarDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(); System.out.println("Calendar Type: " + cal.getCalendarType()); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Calendar Type: gregory
Getting Calendar Type of a GregorianCalendar Instance of Given Date Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar getCalendarType() method. We're creating an instance of a GregorianCalendar of any random date. Then calendar type is retrieved using getCalendarType() method. We're printing the type thereafter.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Calendar; import java.util.GregorianCalendar; public class CalendarDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(2022,11,23); System.out.println("Calendar Type: " + cal.getCalendarType()); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Calendar Type: gregory
