Remarks

The Taiwan calendar works exactly like the Gregorian calendar, except that the year and era are different. The TaiwanCalendar class recognizes only the current era.

Leap years in the Taiwan calendar correspond to the same leap years in the Gregorian calendar. A leap year in the Gregorian calendar is defined as a Gregorian year that is evenly divisible by four, except if it is divisible by 100. However, Gregorian years that are divisible by 400 are leap years. A common year has 365 days and a leap year has 366 days.

The Taiwan calendar has 12 months with 28 to 31 days each:

GetMonth value	Month	Days in common years	Days in leap years
1	1月 (January)	31	31
2	2月 (February)	28	29
3	3月 (March)	31	31
4	4月 (April)	30	30
5	5月 (May)	31	31
6	6月 (June)	30	30
7	7月 (July)	31	31
8	8月 (August)	31	31
9	9月 (September)	30	30
10	10月 (October)	31	31
11	11月 (November)	30	30
12	12月 (December)	31	31

February has 29 days during leap years and 28 during common years.

The date January 1, 2001 C.E. in the Gregorian calendar is equivalent to the first day of January in the year 90 of the current era in the Taiwan calendar.

Each CultureInfo object supports a set of calendars. The CultureInfo.Calendar property returns the default calendar for the culture, and the CultureInfo.OptionalCalendars property returns an array containing all the calendars supported by the culture. To change the calendar used by a CultureInfo object, the application should set the DateTimeFormatInfo.Calendar property of CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat to a new Calendar object if the new calendar is one of the culture's optional calendars. The following example shows how to change the calendar for the zh-TW culture to the Taiwan calendar.

' Change the calendar used by a zh-TW CultureInfo object from Gregorian to Taiwan. 
Dim taiwanCulture As New CultureInfo("zh-TW")
Dim originalCalendar As Calendar = taiwanCulture.Calendar
Dim message As String = Nothing

' Confirm that the default calendar is not the Taiwan calendar.
If originalCalendar.ToString <> "System.Globalization.TaiwanCalendar" Then
   ' Check whether the culture supports the Taiwan calendar.
   Dim supported As Boolean = False
   For Each supportedCal As Calendar In taiwanCulture.OptionalCalendars
      If supportedCal.ToString = "System.Globalization.TaiwanCalendar" Then
         supported = True            
         taiwanCulture.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = supportedCal
         message = String.Format("Changed the current calendar for the {0} culture from {1} to {2}.", _
                                 taiwanCulture.ToString(), _
                                 originalCalendar.ToString.Replace("System.Globalization.", ""), _
                                 supportedCal.ToString.Replace("System.Globalization.", ""))                                 
         Exit For
      End If
      If Not supported Then message = "The Taiwan calendar is not supported."
   Next        
Else
   message = String.Format("Taiwan is the default calendar for the {0} culture.", _
                           taiwanCulture.ToString())
End If
outputBlock.Text += message + vbCrLf
' The example displays the following output:
'   Changed the current calendar for the zh-TW culture from GregorianCalendar to TaiwanCalendar.

// Change the calendar used by a zh-TW CultureInfo object from Gregorian to Taiwan. 
CultureInfo taiwanCulture = new CultureInfo("zh-TW");
Calendar originalCalendar = taiwanCulture.Calendar;
string message = null;

// Confirm that the default calendar is not the Taiwan calendar.
if (originalCalendar.ToString() != "System.Globalization.TaiwanCalendar")
{
   // Check whether the culture supports the Taiwan calendar.
   bool supported = false;
   foreach (Calendar supportedCal in taiwanCulture.OptionalCalendars)
{
      if (supportedCal.ToString() == "System.Globalization.TaiwanCalendar")
      {
         supported = true;            
         taiwanCulture.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = supportedCal;
         message = String.Format("Changed the current calendar for the {0} culture from {1} to {2}.",
                                 taiwanCulture.ToString(),
                                 originalCalendar.ToString().Replace("System.Globalization.", ""),
                                 supportedCal.ToString().Replace("System.Globalization.", ""));                                 
         break;
      }
      if (! supported) message = "The Taiwan calendar is not supported.";
   }        
   if (! supported) message = "The Taiwan calendar is not supported.";
}
else
{
   message = String.Format("Taiwan is the default calendar for the {0} culture.",
                           taiwanCulture.ToString());
}
outputBlock.Text += message + "\n";
// The example displays the following output:
//   Changed the current calendar for the zh-TW culture from GregorianCalendar to TaiwanCalendar.

Notes to Callers

If DateTimeFormatInfo.Calendar is the TaiwanCalendar but the Thread.CurrentCulture is not "zh-TW", then DateTimeFormatInfo.GetEraName and DateTimeFormatInfo.GetAbbreviatedEraName return an empty string ("").
