Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Determines whether the specified date is a leap day.

Namespace:  System.Globalization
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides Function IsLeapDay ( _
    year As Integer, _
    month As Integer, _
    day As Integer, _
    era As Integer _
) As Boolean

public override bool IsLeapDay(
    int year,
    int month,
    int day,
    int era
)

Parameters

  • month
    Type: System.Int32
    An integer from 1 through 12 that represents a month.
  • day
    Type: System.Int32
    An integer from 1 through 30 that represents a day.
  • era
    Type: System.Int32
    An era. Specify UmAlQuraCalendar.Eras[UmAlQuraCalendar.CurrentEra].

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
Always false, because the UmAlQuraCalendar class does not support the notion of a leap day.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException

year, month, day, or era is outside the range supported by the UmAlQuraCalendar class.

Remarks

A leap day is a day that occurs only in a leap year.

Examples

The following example calls the IsLeapDay method for the last day of the second month (February) for five years in each of the eras.
