    35  * <p>
       
    36  * Support for calendar systems other than the default ISO.
       
    37  * </p>
       
    38  * <p>
       
    39  * The main API is based around the calendar system defined in ISO-8601.
       
    40  * This package provides support for alternate systems.
       
    41  * </p>
       
    42  * <p>
       
    43  * The supported calendar systems includes:
       
    44  * </p>
       
    45  * <ul>
       
    46  * <li>{@link java.time.calendar.HijrahChrono Hijrah calendar}</li>
       
    47  * <li>{@link java.time.calendar.JapaneseChrono Japanese calendar}</li>
       
    48  * <li>{@link java.time.calendar.MinguoChrono Minguo calendar}</li>
       
    49  * <li>{@link java.time.calendar.ThaiBuddhistChrono Thai Buddhist calendar}</li>
       
    50  * </ul>
       
    51  * <p>
       
    52  * It is intended that applications use the main API whenever possible,
       
    53  * including code to read and write from a persistent data store,
       
    54  * such as a database, and to send dates and times across a network.
       
    55  * This package is then used at the user interface level to deal with
       
    56  * localized input/output.
       
    57  * See {@link java.time.temporal.ChronoLocalDate ChronoLocalDate}
       
    58  * for a full discussion of the issues.

    95  * Unless otherwise noted, passing a null argument to a constructor or method in any class or interface
