66/**
67 * Framework-level interface defining read-write access to a temporal object,
68 * such as a date, time, offset or some combination of these.
69 * <p>
70 * This is the base interface type for date, time and offset objects that
71 * are complete enough to be manipulated using plus and minus.
72 * It is implemented by those classes that can provide and manipulate information
73 * as {@linkplain TemporalField fields} or {@linkplain TemporalQuery queries}.
74 * See {@link TemporalAccessor} for the read-only version of this interface.
75 * <p>
76 * Most date and time information can be represented as a number.
77 * These are modeled using {@code TemporalField} with the number held using
78 * a {@code long} to handle large values. Year, month and day-of-month are
79 * simple examples of fields, but they also include instant and offsets.
80 * See {@link ChronoField} for the standard set of fields.
81 * <p>
82 * Two pieces of date/time information cannot be represented by numbers,
83 * the {@linkplain java.time.chrono.Chronology chronology} and the
84 * {@linkplain java.time.ZoneId time-zone}.
85 * These can be accessed via {@link #query(TemporalQuery) queries} using
86 * the static methods defined on {@link TemporalQuery}.
87 * <p>
88 * This interface is a framework-level interface that should not be widely
89 * used in application code. Instead, applications should create and pass
90 * around instances of concrete types, such as {@code LocalDate}.
91 * There are many reasons for this, part of which is that implementations
92 * of this interface may be in calendar systems other than ISO.
93 * See {@link java.time.chrono.ChronoLocalDate} for a fuller discussion of the issues.
94 *
95 * <h3>When to implement</h3>
96 * <p>
97 * A class should implement this interface if it meets three criteria:
98 * <ul>
99 * <li>it provides access to date/time/offset information, as per {@code TemporalAccessor}
100 * <li>the set of fields are contiguous from the largest to the smallest
101 * <li>the set of fields are complete, such that no other field is needed to define the
102 *  valid range of values for the fields that are represented
103 * </ul>
104 * <p>
105 * Four examples make this clear:
106 * <ul>
107 * <li>{@code LocalDate} implements this interface as it represents a set of fields
108 *  that are contiguous from days to forever and require no external information to determine
109 *  the validity of each date. It is therefore able to implement plus/minus correctly.
110 * <li>{@code LocalTime} implements this interface as it represents a set of fields
111 *  that are contiguous from nanos to within days and require no external information to determine
112 *  validity. It is able to implement plus/minus correctly, by wrapping around the day.
113 * <li>{@code MonthDay}, the combination of month-of-year and day-of-month, does not implement
114 *  this interface.  While the combination is contiguous, from days to months within years,
115 *  the combination does not have sufficient information to define the valid range of values
116 *  for day-of-month.  As such, it is unable to implement plus/minus correctly.
117 * <li>The combination day-of-week and day-of-month ("Friday the 13th") should not implement
118 *  this interface. It does not represent a contiguous set of fields, as days to weeks overlaps
119 *  days to months.
120 * </ul>
121 *
122 * @implSpec
123 * This interface places no restrictions on the mutability of implementations,
124 * however immutability is strongly recommended.
125 * All implementations must be {@link Comparable}.
126 *
