The Calendar Control

The Calendar control provides a window which shows a month of days. The control's current date is displayed at the top between the month scroll buttons. The Calendar class does not use any other extend.awt controls but does require the ADate class.


Visual Appearance

This is an example (from the SAMPLES.ZIP file) of what a Calendar looks like:

The display of either three character or full word day names is optional.


Required Classes

There are two classes involved with implementing the Calendar control.

Calendar This is the actual control
ADate This is the date class (in the extend.util package) which provides the actual date functionality.
