julian property

CalendarSystem julian
final

Returns a pure proleptic Julian calendar system, which defines every fourth year as a leap year. This implementation follows the leap year rule strictly, even for dates before 8 CE, where leap years were actually irregular.

Although the Julian calendar did not exist before 45 BCE, this calendar assumes it did, thus it is proleptic. This implementation also fixes the start of the year at January 1.

A suitable Julian calendar reference; the same reference may be returned by several calls as the object is immutable and thread-safe.<
