A date without a time-zone in the ISO-8601 calendar system, such as 2007-12-03.
LocalDate is an immutable date-time object that represents a date, often viewed as year-month-day. Other date fields, such as day-of-year, day-of-week and week-of-year, can also be accessed. For example, the value "2nd October 2007" can be stored in a LocalDate.
This class does not store or represent a time or time-zone. Instead, it is a description of the date, as used for birthdays. It cannot represent an instant on the time-line without additional information such as an offset or time-zone.
The ISO-8601 calendar system is the modern civil calendar system used today in most of the world. It is equivalent to the proleptic Gregorian calendar system, in which today's rules for leap years are applied for all time. For most applications written today, the ISO-8601 rules are entirely suitable. However, any application that makes use of historical dates, and requires them to be accurate will find the ISO-8601 approach unsuitable.
This is a value-based class; use of identity-sensitive operations (including reference equality (==), identity hash code, or synchronization) on instances of LocalDate may have unpredictable results and should be avoided. The equals method should be used for comparisons.

(*from temporal)
Obtains an instance of LocalDate from a temporal object.
This obtains a local date based on the specified temporal. A TemporalAccessor represents an arbitrary set of date and time information, which this factory converts to an instance of LocalDate.
The conversion uses the TemporalQueries.localDate() query, which relies on extracting the EPOCH_DAY field.
This method matches the signature of the functional interface TemporalQuery allowing it to be used as a query via method reference, LocalDate::from.
temporal - the temporal object to convert, not null - java.time.temporal.TemporalAccessor

This returns a temporal object of the same observable type as the input with the date changed to be the same as this.
The adjustment is equivalent to using Temporal.with(TemporalField, long) passing ChronoField.EPOCH_DAY as the field.
In most cases, it is clearer to reverse the calling pattern by using Temporal.with(TemporalAdjuster):
// these two lines are equivalent, but the second approach is recommended temporal = thisLocalDate.adjustInto(temporal); temporal = temporal.with(thisLocalDate);
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
temporal - the target object to be adjusted, not null - java.time.temporal.Temporal

(at-start-of-day this)
(at-start-of-day this zone)
Returns a zoned date-time from this date at the earliest valid time according to the rules in the time-zone.
Time-zone rules, such as daylight savings, mean that not every local date-time is valid for the specified zone, thus the local date-time may not be midnight.
In most cases, there is only one valid offset for a local date-time. In the case of an overlap, there are two valid offsets, and the earlier one is used, corresponding to the first occurrence of midnight on the date. In the case of a gap, the zoned date-time will represent the instant just after the gap.
If the zone ID is a ZoneOffset, then the result always has a time of midnight.
To convert to a specific time in a given time-zone call atTime(LocalTime) followed by LocalDateTime.atZone(ZoneId).
zone - the zone ID to use, not null - java.time.ZoneId
returns: the zoned date-time formed from this date and the earliest valid time for the zone, not null - java.time.ZonedDateTime

Gets the year field. This method returns the primitive int value for the year. The year returned by this method is proleptic as per get(YEAR). To obtain the year-of-era, use get(YEAR_OF_ERA). returns: the year, from MIN_YEAR to MAX_YEAR - `int`
(hash-code this)
A hash code for this date.
returns: a suitable hash code - int
A hash code for this date. returns: a suitable hash code - `int`
(leap-year? this)
Checks if the year is a leap year, according to the ISO proleptic calendar system rules.
This method applies the current rules for leap years across the whole time-line. In general, a year is a leap year if it is divisible by four without remainder. However, years divisible by 100, are not leap years, with the exception of years divisible by 400 which are.
For example, 1904 is a leap year it is divisible by 4. 1900 was not a leap year as it is divisible by 100, however 2000 was a leap year as it is divisible by 400.
The calculation is proleptic - applying the same rules into the far future and far past. This is historically inaccurate, but is correct for the ISO-8601 standard.
returns: true if the year is leap, false otherwise - boolean

In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. MILLENNIA - Returns a LocalDate with the specified number of millennia added. This is equivalent to calling plusYears(long) with the amount multiplied by 1,000. The day-of-month will be unchanged unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. ERAS - Returns a LocalDate with the specified number of eras added. Only two eras are supported so the amount must be one, zero or minus one. If the amount is non-zero then the year is changed such that the year-of-era is unchanged. The day-of-month will be unchanged unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year.

(until this end-date-exclusive)
(until this end-exclusive unit)
Calculates the amount of time until another date in terms of the specified unit.
This calculates the amount of time between two LocalDate objects in terms of a single TemporalUnit. The start and end points are this and the specified date. The result will be negative if the end is before the start. The Temporal passed to this method is converted to a LocalDate using from(TemporalAccessor). For example, the amount in days between two dates can be calculated using startDate.until(endDate, DAYS).
The calculation returns a whole number, representing the number of complete units between the two dates. For example, the amount in months between 2012-06-15 and 2012-08-14 will only be one month as it is one day short of two months.
There are two equivalent ways of using this method. The first is to invoke this method. The second is to use TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal):
// these two lines are equivalent amount = start.until(end, MONTHS); amount = MONTHS.between(start, end); The choice should be made based on which makes the code more readable.
The calculation is implemented in this method for ChronoUnit. The units DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS, YEARS, DECADES, CENTURIES, MILLENNIA and ERAS are supported. Other ChronoUnit values will throw an exception.
If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal) passing this as the first argument and the converted input temporal as the second argument.

For example, the amount in months between 2012-06-15 and 2012-08-14 will only be one month as it is one day short of two months. There are two equivalent ways of using this method. The first is to invoke this method. The second is to use TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal): // these two lines are equivalent amount = start.until(end, MONTHS); amount = MONTHS.between(start, end); The choice should be made based on which makes the code more readable. The calculation is implemented in this method for ChronoUnit. The units DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS, YEARS, DECADES, CENTURIES, MILLENNIA and ERAS are supported. Other ChronoUnit values will throw an exception. If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.between(Temporal, Temporal) passing this as the first argument and the converted input temporal as the second argument. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call. end-exclusive - the end date, exclusive, which is converted to a LocalDate, not null - `java.time.temporal.Temporal` unit - the unit to measure the amount in, not null - `java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit` returns: the amount of time between this date and the end date - `long` throws: java.time.DateTimeException - if the amount cannot be calculated, or the end temporal cannot be converted to a LocalDate
(with this adjuster)
(with this field new-value)
Returns a copy of this date with the specified field set to a new value.
This returns a LocalDate, based on this one, with the value for the specified field changed. This can be used to change any supported field, such as the year, month or day-of-month. If it is not possible to set the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.
In some cases, changing the specified field can cause the resulting date to become invalid, such as changing the month from 31st January to February would make the day-of-month invalid. In cases like this, the field is responsible for resolving the date. Typically it will choose the previous valid date, which would be the last valid day of February in this example.
If the field is a ChronoField then the adjustment is implemented here. The supported fields behave as follows:
DAY_OF_WEEK - Returns a LocalDate with the specified day-of-week. The date is adjusted up to 6 days forward or backward within the boundary of a Monday to Sunday week. ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH - Returns a LocalDate with the specified aligned-day-of-week. The date is adjusted to the specified month-based aligned-day-of-week. Aligned weeks are counted such that the first week of a given month starts on the first day of that month. This may cause the date to be moved up to 6 days into the following month. ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR - Returns a LocalDate with the specified aligned-day-of-week. The date is adjusted to the specified year-based aligned-day-of-week. Aligned weeks are counted such that the first week of a given year starts on the first day of that year. This may cause the date to be moved up to 6 days into the following year. DAY_OF_MONTH - Returns a LocalDate with the specified day-of-month. The month and year will be unchanged. If the day-of-month is invalid for the year and month, then a DateTimeException is thrown. DAY_OF_YEAR - Returns a LocalDate with the specified day-of-year. The year will be unchanged. If the day-of-year is invalid for the year, then a DateTimeException is thrown. EPOCH_DAY - Returns a LocalDate with the specified epoch-day. This completely replaces the date and is equivalent to ofEpochDay(long). ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH - Returns a LocalDate with the specified aligned-week-of-month. Aligned weeks are counted such that the first week of a given month starts on the first day of that month. This adjustment moves the date in whole week chunks to match the specified week. The result will have the same day-of-week as this date. This may cause the date to be moved into the following month. ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR - Returns a LocalDate with the specified aligned-week-of-year. Aligned weeks are counted such that the first week of a given year starts on the first day of that year. This adjustment moves the date in whole week chunks to match the specified week. The result will have the same day-of-week as this date. This may cause the date to be moved into the following year. MONTH_OF_YEAR - Returns a LocalDate with the specified month-of-year. The year will be unchanged. The day-of-month will also be unchanged, unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. PROLEPTIC_MONTH - Returns a LocalDate with the specified proleptic-month. The day-of-month will be unchanged, unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. YEAR_OF_ERA - Returns a LocalDate with the specified year-of-era. The era and month will be unchanged. The day-of-month will also be unchanged, unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. YEAR - Returns a LocalDate with the specified year. The month will be unchanged. The day-of-month will also be unchanged, unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year. ERA - Returns a LocalDate with the specified era. The year-of-era and month will be unchanged. The day-of-month will also be unchanged, unless it would be invalid for the new month and year. In that case, the day-of-month is adjusted to the maximum valid value for the new month and year.
In all cases, if the new value is outside the valid range of values for the field then a DateTimeException will be thrown.
All other ChronoField instances will throw an UnsupportedTemporalTypeException.
If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.adjustInto(Temporal, long) passing this as the argument. In this case, the field determines whether and how to adjust the instant.
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
