Attributes

Remarks

Property getter documentation:

Tell whether date/time parsing is to be lenient. This method is equivalent to the following call. <blockquote>

{@code
            getCalendar().isLenient()
            }

</blockquote>

Java documentation for java.text.DateFormat.isLenient().

Property setter documentation:

Specify whether or not date/time parsing is to be lenient. With lenient parsing, the parser may use heuristics to interpret inputs that do not precisely match this object's format. With strict parsing, inputs must match this object's format.

This method is equivalent to the following call. <blockquote>

{@code
            getCalendar().setLenient(lenient)
            }

</blockquote>

This leniency value is overwritten by a call to #setCalendar(java.util.Calendar) setCalendar().
