.isWeekDateSupported()
The .isWeekDateSupported()
method is used to check if the current Calendar
object supports week dates. The method returns a boolean value, with true
indicating support for week dates and false
indicating otherwise. It belongs to the Calendar
class and is an instance method, making it accessible with the class object.
Syntax
result = myCalendar.isWeekDateSupported()
This method does not have any parameters.
Note: The
Calendar
class has been replaced by theLocalDate
,LocalTime
, andLocalDateTime
classes in the Java 8 and later Date-Time API. These classes provide a more modern and user-friendly API for working with dates and times in Java.
Example
The following example shows the usage of java.util.calendar.isWeekDateSupported()
method.
import java.util.*;public class CalendarDemo {public static void main(String[] args) {// Create an instance of GregorianCalendarCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();// Check if the calendar supports week datesboolean supportsWeekDates = calendar.isWeekDateSupported();if (supportsWeekDates) {System.out.println("The calendar supports week dates.");} else {System.out.println("The calendar does not support week dates.");}}}
Since the Gregorian Calendar supports week dates, the code will return:
The calendar supports week dates.
