# The intent of the following code is to implement the usual
# conversion, by adding or subtracting the Gregorian deviation
# as of the reform date. An example would be that George
# Washington was born on February 11 1732 Julian. The reform
# took this to February 22 Gregorian, and that is the date
# usually given, even though a couple more days' difference has
# accumulated since then.
#
# A straightforward implementation would be to do the change in
# two steps: addition would be in Julian to the reform date and
# then in Gregorian for the rest of the interval, and vice versa
# for subtraction. But that would involve going back and redoing
# tha calculation.
#
# What this implementation does is to recognize that part of the
# calculation has been done in the wrong calendar, and correct
# for the number of leap year days that did (or did not) occur
# under the correct calendar.
#
# The original implementation nade this correction in all cases.
# But as Christian Carey found out, this gives incorrect (or at
# least very surprising) results when adding or subtracting
# enough days to not only cross the reform date but cross one of
# the years affected by the reform. His example was that adding
# 43,099 days to 1583-03-01 (Julian) correctly gave 1700-03-11
# (Gregorian), but adding 43,100 days also gave 1700-03-11
# rather than 1700-03-12. This is described (sketchily) in RT
# 140734.
#
# The solution I have adopted is to pick apart the interval the
# same way DateTime does (and is documented to do) and only
# apply the correction to the month portion of the interval.
# This fixes RT 140734, but preserves the fact that if you
# calculate GW's Nth birthday by adding N years to his Julian
# birthday, the result is always either February 11 Julian or
# February 22 Gregorian, using the UK reform date.

=head1 NAME
DateTime::Calendar::Christian - Dates in the Christian calendar
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use DateTime::Calendar::Christian;
$dt = DateTime::Calendar::Christian->new( year => 1752,
month => 10,
day => 4,
reform_date => $datetime );
=head1 DESCRIPTION
DateTime::Calendar::Christian is the implementation of the combined
Julian and Gregorian calendar.
See L<DateTime> for information about most of the methods.
=head1 BACKGROUND
The Julian calendar, introduced in Roman times, had an average year
length of 365.25 days, about 0.03 days more than the correct number. When
this difference had accumulated to about ten days, the calendar was
reformed by pope Gregory XIII, who introduced a new leap year rule. To
correct for the error that had built up over the centuries, ten days
were skipped in October 1582. In most countries, the change date was
later than that; England went Gregorian in 1752, and Russia didn't
change over until 1918.
=head1 METHODS
This manpage only describes those methods that differ from those of
DateTime. See L<DateTime|DateTime> for all other methods. A spirited
attempt has been made to implement the B<entire> L<DateTime|DateTime>
interface.
Methods not documented below may behave in unexpected ways when they
involve dates both before and after the reform date. For example,
C<week_number()>, when called on a date in the reform year but after the
reform, returns the week number in the Gregorian year, not the actual
year.
B<Caveat programmer.>
=over
=item * new( ... )
Besides the usual parameters ("year", "month", "day", "hour", "minute",
"second", "nanosecond", "locale", "formatter" and "time_zone"),
this class method takes the additional "reform_date" parameter. See
L<SPECIFYING REFORM DATE|/SPECIFYING REFORM DATE> below for how to
specify this.
If this method is used as an instance method and no "reform_date" is
given, the "reform_date" of the returned object is the same as the one
of the object used to call this constructor. This means you can make
"date generators", that implement a calendar with a fixed reform date:
$english_calendar = DateTime::Calendar::Christian(
reform_date => DateTime->new( year => 1752,
month => 9,
day => 14 )
);
or equivalently:
$english_calendar = DateTime::Calendar::Christian(
reform_date => 'UK' );
You can use this generator to create dates with the given reform_date:
$born = $english_calendar->new( year => 1732, month => 2, day => 22 );
$died = $english_calendar->new( year => 1799, month => 12, day => 14 );
When a date is given that was skipped during a calendar reform, it is
assumed that it is a Gregorian date, which is then converted to the
corresponding Julian date. This behaviour may change in future
versions. If a date is given that can be both Julian and Gregorian, it
will be considered Julian. This is a bug.
=item * from_epoch, from_object, from_day_of_year, last_day_of_month
These methods accept an additional "reform_date" argument. Note that the
epoch is defined for most (all?) systems as a date in the Gregorian
calendar. B<But> this module will still represent it as a Julian date if
the epoch gives a date before the reform date.
=item * reform_date
Returns the date of the calendar reform, as a DateTime object.
=item * is_julian, is_gregorian
Return true or false indicating whether the datetime object is in a
specific calendar.
=item * calendar_name
Return C<'Julian'> or C<'Gregorian'>, depending on the value returned by
C<is_julian()>.
=item * is_leap_year
This method returns a true or false indicating whether or not the
datetime object is in a leap year. If the object is in the year of the
date reform, this method indicates whether there is a leap day in that
year, irrespective of whether the datetime object is in the same
calendar as the possible leap day.
=item * days_in_year
Returns the number of days in the year. Is equal to 365 or 366, except
for the year(s) of the calendar reform.
=item * day_of_year, day_of_year_0
Returns the day of the year, either one-based or zero-based depending on
the actual method called. In the reform year this is the actual number
of days from January 1 (Julian) to the current date, whether Julian or
Gregorian.
=item * add, subtract
These are done in terms of duration, so that, for example, subtracting a
day from the reform date (Gregorian) gets you the day before the reform
date (Julian).
When months and/or years are involved, the result is modified from a
straight I<rata die> calculation to add or subtract the number of days
skipped by the reform. Without this modification, George Washington's
birthday of February 11 Julian would drift forward in the Gregorian
calendar as the difference between the two calendars increased. With
this modification, it is February 22 Gregorian regardless of the actual
days difference between the two calendars.
B<Note> that in versions C<0.12> and earlier this modification was
applied to B<all> durations. This produced anomalous (i.e. wrong)
results when adding or subtracting large numbers of days.
Beginning with version C<0.12_01> the modification is only applied to
months (and years, since years are folded into months when a
L<DateTime::Duration|DateTime::Duration> object is created.) The actual
order of operation is that specified by L<DateTime|DateTime>: the
C<days> component of the duration is applied first, then C<months> (with
the above modification), then C<minutes>, C<seconds>, and
C<nanoseconds>. This can give rise to commutation/round-trip failures,
and these may be more common under this change, but this appears to be
the price of fixing the bug described in the previous paragraph.
The L<DateTime|DateTime> documentation notes that this can happen in
that module even in simple cases, such as adding a month to (say)
January 31. It also notes that if order of operation is an issue, you
can force it by doing something like
$dt->add( months => 3 )->add( days => 5 );
to force months to be done first.
=item * strftime
This override allows selected methods of this class (i.e. not inherited
from DateTime) to be used in the C<'%{method_name}'> construction in
templates. The only method allowed at the moment is C<calendar_name>.
=item * gregorian_deviation( [$datetime] )
This method returns the difference in days between the Gregorian and the
Julian calendar. If the parameter $datetime is given, it will be used to
calculate the result; in this case this method can be used as a class
method.
This deviation increments on March 1 (Julian) of any year which is a
leap year in the Julian calendar but not the Gregorian calendar.
=item * julian_deviation( [$datetime] )
This method was added in version 0.13.
This method returns the difference in days between the Gregorian and the
Julian calendar. If the parameter $datetime is given, it will be used to
calculate the result; in this case this method can be used as a class
method.
This deviation increments on March 1 (Gregorian) of any year which is a
leap year in the Julian calendar but not the Gregorian calendar.
=item * DefaultReformDate
This static method returns a L<DateTime|DateTime> object representing
the default reform date. If called with an argument, the argument
becomes the new reform date, which is returned. The argument is either a
L<DateTime|DateTime> object (or something that can be converted into
one) or a reform date location name. See
L<SPECIFYING REFORM DATE|/SPECIFYING REFORM DATE> below for what kind of
arguments can be specified.

=head1 INTERFACES
This module implements the following interfaces:
=over
=item * Storable
This module implements the Storable interface. All the donkey work is
done by L<DateTIme|DateTime>.
=item * Overloading
Addition, subtraction, and both string and numeric comparison are
overloaded. Objects with no date (that is, objects initialized as "date
generators") collate before objects with a date.
=back
=head1 SPECIFYING REFORM DATE

=item * An array reference.
The first seven elements of the array are year, month, day, hour,
minute, second and nanosecond. Element C<[0]> is the only one that is
required. Elements C<[1]> and C<[2]> default to C<1>, and the rest to
C<0>.
=item * An ISO-8601-ish string.
The string is split on non-numerics, and the reform date initialized
from a reference to the resultant array, as described in the previous
item. The string B<must> be the punctuated form; that is, C<'1752-9-14'>
will work, but C<'17520914'> will not. There must not be a zone
specification, and the year must not be signed.

=head1 BUGS
=over
=item * There are problems with calendars switch to Gregorian before 200 AD or after about 4000 AD. Before 200 AD, this switch leads to duplication of dates. After about 4000 AD, there could be entire missing months. (The module can handle dates befo...
=item * There may be functions that give the wrong results for the year of the calendar reform. The function C<truncate()> is a known problem, and C<today()> may be a problem. If you find any more problems, please let me know.
