Syntax
Numeric getActualMonthMinimum()Usage
For example, return the minimum value of the
Month field by
calling:Calendar.fromDate(Date.parseString("08/01/1999","mm/dd/yyyy")).getActualMonthMinimum()This example populates a Decimal Format Box.
This method
considers the given time value and the current values of the getFirstDayOfWeek(),
getMinimalDaysInFirstWeek(), and setTimeZone() methods. For
example, if the Gregorian change date is January 10, 1970 and the date of this
GregorianCalendar is January 20, 1970, the actual minimum value of the Day
of Month field is 10 because the previous date of January 10, 1970 is December 27, 1996 (in
the Julian calendar). Therefore, December 28, 1969 to January 9, 1970 don't exist.
