Trait ChineseBased

pub trait ChineseBased {
    const EPOCH: RataDie;
    const DEBUG_NAME: &'static str;

    // Required method
    fn utc_offset(fixed: RataDie) -> f64;
}

The trait ChineseBased is used by Chinese-based calendars to perform computations shared by such calendar. To do so, calendars should:

• Implement fn location by providing a location at which observations of the moon are recorded, which may change over time (the zone is important, long, lat, and elevation are not relevant for these calculations)
• Define const EPOCH as a RataDie marking the start date of the era of the Calendar for internal use, which may not accurately reflect how years or eras are marked traditionally or seen by end-users

Required Associated Constants

const EPOCH: RataDie

The RataDie of the beginning of the epoch used for internal computation; this may not reflect traditional methods of year-tracking or eras, since Chinese-based calendars may not track years ordinally in the same way many western calendars do.

const DEBUG_NAME: &'static str

The name of the calendar for debugging.

Required Methods

fn utc_offset(fixed: RataDie) -> f64

Given a fixed date, return the UTC offset used for observations of the new moon in order to calculate the beginning of months. For multiple Chinese-based lunar calendars, this has changed over the years, and can cause differences in calendar date.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
