Description
This package implements Date/Time manipulations, arithmetics and formatting in an easy to use manner for Java and Waba (Java for small devices like PDAs). This package was created for various reasons, the most important ones:
[In the meantime a fully Object oriented version (with Smalltalk's object model, enhanced with multiple inheritance) has been created by IBM: Object Rexx. It's free for Linux and OS/2, available for AIX and Windows 97/NT/2000/ME, allowing easy access to OLE/ActiveX-automation as well as to the WSH ('Windows Scripting Host').]

Please look up this excellent and authorative source of information about calendars, to learn who originally devised these algorithms and who else has to be credited with them.

{This package was developed while working temporarily (from April 2000 through April 2001) at the University of Essen (Germany), starting out from the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration (a.k.a. "WU" - Wirtschafts-Universität Wien)). This was taken as an opportunity to learn about Java and Waba.
