An alternative to the Java.Util.Calendar and Java.Util.GregorianCalendar classes. An instance of the Time class represents a moment in time, specified with second precision. It is modelled after struct tm. This class is not thread-safe and does not consider leap seconds.

This class has a number of issues and it is recommended that Java.Util.GregorianCalendar is used instead.

Known issues:

• For historical reasons when performing time calculations all arithmetic currently takes place using 32-bit integers. This limits the reliable time range representable from 1902 until 2037.See the wikipedia article on the for details. Do not rely on this behavior; it may change in the future.
• Calling Time.SwitchTimezone(string) on a date that cannot exist, such as a wall time that was skipped due to a DST transition, will result in a date in 1969 (i.e. -1, or 1 second before 1st Jan 1970 UTC).
• Much of the formatting / parsing assumes ASCII text and is therefore not suitable for use with non-ASCII scripts.
