/**
 * \file 
 * \brief C++ API: Concrete class which provides the standard calendar.
 */

U_NAMESPACE_BEGIN

/** 
 * Concrete class which provides the standard calendar used by most of the world.
 * <P>
 * The standard (Gregorian) calendar has 2 eras, BC and AD.
 * <P>
 * This implementation handles a single discontinuity, which corresponds by default to
 * the date the Gregorian calendar was originally instituted (October 15, 1582). Not all
 * countries adopted the Gregorian calendar then, so this cutover date may be changed by
 * the caller.
 * <P>
 * Prior to the institution of the Gregorian Calendar, New Year's Day was March 25. To
 * avoid confusion, this Calendar always uses January 1. A manual adjustment may be made
 * if desired for dates that are prior to the Gregorian changeover and which fall
 * between January 1 and March 24.
 *
 * <p>Values calculated for the <code>WEEK_OF_YEAR</code> field range from 1 to
 * 53.  Week 1 for a year is the first week that contains at least
 * <code>getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek()</code> days from that year.  It thus
 * depends on the values of <code>getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek()</code>,
 * <code>getFirstDayOfWeek()</code>, and the day of the week of January 1.
 * Weeks between week 1 of one year and week 1 of the following year are
 * numbered sequentially from 2 to 52 or 53 (as needed).
 *
 * <p>For example, January 1, 1998 was a Thursday.  If
 * <code>getFirstDayOfWeek()</code> is <code>MONDAY</code> and
 * <code>getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek()</code> is 4 (these are the values
 * reflecting ISO 8601 and many national standards), then week 1 of 1998 starts
 * on December 29, 1997, and ends on January 4, 1998.  If, however,
 * <code>getFirstDayOfWeek()</code> is <code>SUNDAY</code>, then week 1 of 1998
 * starts on January 4, 1998, and ends on January 10, 1998; the first three days
 * of 1998 then are part of week 53 of 1997.
 *
 * <p>Example for using GregorianCalendar:
 * <pre>
 * \code
 *     // get the supported ids for GMT-08:00 (Pacific Standard Time)
 *     UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *     const StringEnumeration *ids = TimeZone::createEnumeration(-8 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
 *     // if no ids were returned, something is wrong. get out.
 *     if (ids == 0 || ids->count(success) == 0) {
 *         return;
 *     }
 *
 *     // begin output
 *     cout << "Current Time" << endl;
 *
 *     // create a Pacific Standard Time time zone
 *     SimpleTimeZone* pdt = new SimpleTimeZone(-8 * 60 * 60 * 1000, ids->unext(NULL, success)));
 *
 *     // set up rules for daylight savings time
 *     pdt->setStartRule(UCAL_MARCH, 1, UCAL_SUNDAY, 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
 *     pdt->setEndRule(UCAL_NOVEMBER, 2, UCAL_SUNDAY, 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
 *
 *     // create a GregorianCalendar with the Pacific Daylight time zone
 *     // and the current date and time
 *     Calendar* calendar = new GregorianCalendar( pdt, success );
