public class IndianCalendar
extends Calendar
```
IndianCalendar is a subclass of GregorianCalendar that numbers years since the birth of the Buddha. This is the civil calendar which is accepted by government of India as Indian National Calendar. The two calendars most widely used in India today are the Vikrama calendar followed in North India and the Shalivahana or Saka calendar which is followed in South India and Maharashtra. A variant of the Shalivahana Calendar was reformed and standardized as the Indian National calendar in 1957.
Some details of Indian National Calendar (to be implemented) : The Months Month Length Start date (Gregorian) ================================================= 1 Chaitra 30/31 March 22* 2 Vaisakha 31 April 21 3 Jyaistha 31 May 22 4 Asadha 31 June 22 5 Sravana 31 July 23 6 Bhadra 31 August 23 7 Asvina 30 September 23 8 Kartika 30 October 23 9 Agrahayana 30 November 22 10 Pausa 30 December 22 11 Magha 30 January 21 12 Phalguna 30 February 20 In leap years, Chaitra has 31 days and starts on March 21 instead. The leap years of Gregorian calendar and Indian National Calendar are in synchornization. So When its a leap year in Gregorian calendar then Chaitra has 31 days. The Years Years are counted in the Saka Era, which starts its year 0 in 78AD (by gregorian calendar). So for eg. 9th June 2006 by Gregorian Calendar, is same as 19th of Jyaistha in 1928 of Saka era by Indian National Calendar.
The Indian Calendar has only one allowable era: Saka Era. If the calendar is not in lenient mode (see setLenient), dates before 1/1/1 Saka Era are rejected with an IllegalArgumentException.
This class should not be subclassed.

IndianCalendar usually should be instantiated using Calendar.getInstance(ULocale) passing in a ULocale with the tag "@calendar=Indian".

  - handleGetExtendedYear
```
protected int handleGetExtendedYear()
```
    Returns the extended year defined by the current fields. This will use the EXTENDED_YEAR field or the YEAR and supra-year fields (such as ERA) specific to the calendar system, depending on which set of fields is newer.
    
    Specified by:
    
    handleGetExtendedYear in class Calendar
    
    Returns:
    
    the extended year
  - handleGetYearLength
```
protected int handleGetYearLength(int extendedYear)
```
    Returns the number of days in the given extended year of this calendar system. Subclasses should override this method if they can provide a more correct or more efficient implementation than the default implementation in Calendar.
    
    Overrides:
    
    handleGetYearLength in class Calendar
  - handleGetMonthLength
```
protected int handleGetMonthLength(int extendedYear,
                                   int month)
```
    Returns the number of days in the given month of the given extended year of this calendar system. Subclasses should override this method if they can provide a more correct or more efficient implementation than the default implementation in Calendar.
    
    Overrides:
    
    handleGetMonthLength in class Calendar
  - handleComputeFields
```
protected void handleComputeFields(int julianDay)
```
    Subclasses may override this method to compute several fields specific to each calendar system. These are:
    - ERA
    - YEAR
    - MONTH
    - DAY_OF_MONTH
    - DAY_OF_YEAR
    - EXTENDED_YEAR
    Subclasses can refer to the DAY_OF_WEEK and DOW_LOCAL fields, which will be set when this method is called. Subclasses can also call the getGregorianXxx() methods to obtain Gregorian calendar equivalents for the given Julian day.
    In addition, subclasses should compute any subclass-specific fields, that is, fields from BASE_FIELD_COUNT to getFieldCount() - 1.
    The default implementation in Calendar implements a pure proleptic Gregorian calendar.
    Overrides:
    
    handleComputeFields in class Calendar
  - handleGetLimit
```
protected int handleGetLimit(int field,
                             int limitType)
```
    Subclass API for defining limits of different types. Subclasses must implement this method to return limits for the following fields:
```
ERA
 YEAR
 MONTH
 WEEK_OF_YEAR
 WEEK_OF_MONTH
 DAY_OF_MONTH
 DAY_OF_YEAR
 DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH
 YEAR_WOY
 EXTENDED_YEAR
```
    Specified by:
    
    handleGetLimit in class Calendar
    
    Parameters:
    
    field - one of the above field numbers
    
    limitType - one of MINIMUM, GREATEST_MINIMUM, LEAST_MAXIMUM, or MAXIMUM
  - handleComputeMonthStart
```
protected int handleComputeMonthStart(int year,
                                      int month,
                                      boolean useMonth)
```
    Returns the Julian day number of day before the first day of the given month in the given extended year. Subclasses should override this method to implement their calendar system.
    
    Specified by:
    
    handleComputeMonthStart in class Calendar
    
    Parameters:
    
    year - the extended year
    
    month - the zero-based month, or 0 if useMonth is false
    
    useMonth - if false, compute the day before the first day of the given year, otherwise, compute the day before the first day of the given month
    
    Returns:
    
    the Julian day number of the day before the first day of the given month and year
  - getType
```
public String getType()
```
    Returns the calendar type name string for this Calendar object. The returned string is the legacy ICU calendar attribute value, for example, "gregorian" or "japanese".
    See type="old type name" for the calendar attribute of locale IDs at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/#Key_Type_Definitions
    
    Overrides:
    
    getType in class Calendar
    
    Returns:
    
    legacy calendar type name string
