Some of these have severe drawbacks. For example, people using + * Unix time (seconds since Jan 1, 1970) think that they are safe until near the year 2038. + * But cases can and do arise where arithmetic manipulations causes serious problems. Consider + * the computation of the average of two datetimes, for example: if one calculates them with + * <code>averageTime = (time1 + time2)/2</code>, there will be overflow even with dates + * around the present. Moreover, even if these problems don't occur, there is the issue of + * conversion back and forth between different systems. + * + * <p> + * Binary datetimes differ in a number of ways: the datatype, the unit, + * and the epoch (origin). We'll refer to these as time scales. For example: + * + * <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"> + * <caption>Table 1: Binary Time Scales</caption> + * <tr> + * <th align="left">Source</th> + * <th align="left">Datatype</th> + * <th align="left">Unit</th> + * <th align="left">Epoch</th> + * </tr> + * + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_JAVA_TIME</td> + * <td>int64_t</td> + * <td>milliseconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1970</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * + * <td>UDTS_UNIX_TIME</td> + * <td>int32_t or int64_t</td> + * <td>seconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1970</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_ICU4C_TIME</td> + * + * <td>double</td> + * <td>milliseconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1970</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_WINDOWS_FILE_TIME</td> + * <td>int64_t</td> + * + * <td>ticks (100 nanoseconds)</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1601</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_DOTNET_DATE_TIME</td> + * <td>int64_t</td> + * <td>ticks (100 nanoseconds)</td> + * + * <td>Jan 1, 0001</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_MAC_OLD_TIME</td> + * <td>int32_t or int64_t</td> + * <td>seconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1904</td> + * + * </tr> + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_MAC_TIME</td> + * <td>double</td> + * <td>seconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 2001</td> + * </tr> + * + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_EXCEL_TIME</td> + * <td>?</td> + * <td>days</td> + * <td>Dec 31, 1899</td> + * </tr> + * <tr> + * + * <td>UDTS_DB2_TIME</td> + * <td>?</td> + * <td>days</td> + * <td>Dec 31, 1899</td> + * </tr> + * + * <tr> + * <td>UDTS_UNIX_MICROSECONDS_TIME</td> + * <td>int64_t</td> + * <td>microseconds</td> + * <td>Jan 1, 1970</td> + * </tr> + * </table> + * + * <p> + * All of the epochs start at 00:00 am (the earliest possible time on the day in question), + * and are assumed to be UTC. + * + * <p> + * The ranges for different datatypes are given in the following table (all values in years). + * The range of years includes the entire range expressible with positive and negative + * values of the datatype.

Java time has plenty of range, but cannot represent + * .NET <code>System.DateTime</code> values without severe loss of precision. ICU4C time addresses this by using a + * <code>double</code> that is otherwise equivalent to the Java time. However, there are disadvantages + * with <code>doubles</code>. They provide for much more graceful degradation in arithmetic operations. + * But they only have 53 bits of accuracy, which means that they will lose precision when + * converting back and forth to ticks. What would really be nice would be a + * <code>long double</code> (80 bits -- 64 bit mantissa), but that is not supported on most systems. + * + *<p> + * The Unix extended time uses a structure with two components: time in seconds and a + * fractional field (microseconds). However, this is clumsy, slow, and + * prone to error (you always have to keep track of overflow and underflow in the + * fractional field). <code>BigDecimal</code> would allow for arbitrary precision and arbitrary range, + * but we do not want to use this as the normal type, because it is slow and does not + * have a fixed size. + * + *<p> + * Because of these issues, we ended up concluding that the .NET framework's + * <code>System.DateTime</code> would be the best pivot. However, we use the full range + * allowed by the datatype, allowing for datetimes back to 29,000 BC and up to 29,000 AD. + * This time scale is very fine grained, does not lose precision, and covers a range that + * will meet almost all requirements. It will not handle the range that Java times do, + * but frankly, being able to handle dates before 29,000 BC or after 29,000 AD is of very limited interest. + * + */ + +/** + * <code>UDateTimeScale</code> values are used to specify the time scale used for + * conversion into or out if the universal time scale. + * + * @stable ICU 3.2 + */ +typedef enum UDateTimeScale { + /** + * Used in the JDK.
