Review Calculates when various holidays occur in any given year BC or AD. Designed to be cannibalised to include the calculation routines in your own programs. It currently calculates about 50 holidays including the following: New Years Day Martin Luther King Day Inauguration Day Robbie Burns Day Groundhog Day Valentines Day Ash Wednesday Lincoln's Birthday Presidents Day Washington's Birthday Alberta Family Day St Patrick's day Vernal Equinox Palm Sunday Good Friday April Fools Day Easter Sunday Easter Monday Earth Day Europe Day Cinco de Mayo Mothers Day Armed Forces Day Victoria Day Memorial Day Fathers Day Summer Solstice St Jean-Baptiste Day Canada Day Independence Day Utah Pioneer Day Parents' Day Canada Civic Day Canadian Labour Day American Labor Day Autumnal Equinox Canadian Thanksgiving Columbus Day Halloween General Election Day Remembrance Day Veterans Day American Thanksgiving Human Rights Day Winter Solstice Christmas Eve Christmas Boxing Day New Years Eve If a holiday was not celebrated in a given year, it will not show. Includes complete Java source code to calculate when the holiday occurs in a given year, when it was first celebrated, when first proclaimed, the rule for how it is calculated in words and an authority to go to for more information. Also calculates the nearest weekday to any given holiday, when you actually get the day off. This is what I refer to by the term "shifted". Boxing day has special shift handling. Shareware that may be freely distributed and used for any purpose except military. In the source are methods that can also be used to calculate how many business days were between given dates. It is quite easy to specify which days you want considered as holidays using methods like addHoliday where you specify the date or the name of the Holiday, addAmericanFederalHolidays and addWeekDaysAsHolidays. The main holiday still missing is Chinese New Year. |
