using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;

int main()
{
   // Create an instance of the calendar.
   GregorianCalendar^ myCal = gcnew GregorianCalendar;
   Console::WriteLine( myCal );
   
   // Display the MinSupportedDateTime.
   DateTime myMin = myCal->MinSupportedDateTime;
   Console::WriteLine( "MinSupportedDateTime: {0:D2}/{1:D2}/{2:D4}", myCal->GetMonth( myMin ), myCal->GetDayOfMonth( myMin ), myCal->GetYear( myMin ) );
   
   // Display the MaxSupportedDateTime.
   DateTime myMax = myCal->MaxSupportedDateTime;
   Console::WriteLine( "MaxSupportedDateTime: {0:D2}/{1:D2}/{2:D4}", myCal->GetMonth( myMax ), myCal->GetDayOfMonth( myMax ), myCal->GetYear( myMax ) );
}

Remarks

Although the value of the MinSupportedDateTime property is the first moment of January 1, 0001 C.E., the Gregorian calendar was not introduced until October 15, 1582, and its adoption throughout the European continent and worldwide was slow. Until they adopted the Gregorian calendar, most cultures in the European, American, and Australian continents used the Julian calendar, which is represented by the JulianCalendar class.
