Class diagram

final var locale = Locale.getDefault();
System.out.println(locale.toLanguageTag()); // en-US

{
    final var era = IsoEra.CE;
    System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 1

    final var name = era.getDisplayName(TextStyle.FULL, locale);
    System.out.println(name); // Anno Domini
}
{
    final var era = IsoEra.BCE;
    System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 0

    final var name = era.getDisplayName(TextStyle.FULL, locale);
    System.out.println(name); // Before Christ
}
final var date1 = LocalDate.of(2100, 12, 31);
System.out.println(date1); // 2100-12-31
System.out.println(date1.getEra()); // CE

final var date2 = LocalDate.of(-99, 1, 2);
System.out.println(date2); // -0099-01-02
System.out.println(date2.getEra()); // BCE

Enum Constants

BCE

The singleton instance for the era before the current one, 'Before Current Era', which has the numeric value 0.

final var era = IsoEra.BCE;
System.out.println(era.name()); // BCE
System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 0

CE

The singleton instance for the current era, 'Current Era', which has the numeric value 1.

final var era = IsoEra.CE;
System.out.println(era.name()); // CE
System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 1

Methods

int getValue ()

Gets the numeric era int value.

final var era = IsoEra.CE;
System.out.println(era); // CE

System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 1
final var era = IsoEra.BCE;
System.out.println(era); // BCE

System.out.println(era.getValue()); // 0

static IsoEra of (int isoEra)

Obtains an instance of IsoEra from an int value.

final var era1 = IsoEra.of(0);
System.out.println(era1); // BCE

final var era2 = IsoEra.of(1);
System.out.println(era2); // CE

static IsoEra valueOf (String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name.

final var era1 = IsoEra.valueOf("BCE");
System.out.println(era1); // BCE

final var era2 = IsoEra.valueOf("CE");
System.out.println(era2); // CE

static IsoEra[] values ()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

for (final var era : IsoEra.values()) {
    System.out.println(era);
}

// Result
// ↓
//BCE
//CE
