    Parameter constraints

    Date.addDays accepts a signed int count of whole calendar days. Positive values move forward, negative values move backward, and zero returns the same date value.

    The result follows the same proleptic Gregorian calendar as Date.fromYmd. Month boundaries, leap days, and year boundaries are crossed by counting calendar days. Historical calendar cutovers and daylight saving changes do not alter the result.

    The result must remain from 0001-01-01 through 9999-12-31. A count whose mathematical result is outside that range raises TPZ4004 during execution. An intermediate integer overflow also raises TPZ4004.

    An invalid result does not wrap, saturate, return a partial date, or change the receiver. Evaluation stops at the fault before later statements run.

    The receiver is evaluated before the day count and each is evaluated once. An earlier fault prevents later evaluation. The operation has no external effects.

    Adding a count and then its negative recovers the starting date when both results lie in range. Date.toIso and the component accessors observe the resulting date without changing it.

    Result

    The declared result type is Date.

    Result and effects

    Link

    Calendar arithmetic preserves the receiver. A result outside years 1 through 9999 raises TPZ4004.

    Add whole calendar days within the civil date range

    Date.addDays accepts a signed int count of whole calendar days. Positive values move forward, negative values move backward, and zero returns the same date value.

    The result follows the same proleptic Gregorian calendar as Date.fromYmd. Month boundaries, leap days, and year boundaries are crossed by counting calendar days. Historical calendar cutovers and daylight saving changes do not alter the result.

    The result must remain from 0001-01-01 through 9999-12-31. A count whose mathematical result is outside that range raises TPZ4004 during execution. An intermediate integer overflow also raises TPZ4004.

    An invalid result does not wrap, saturate, return a partial date, or change the receiver. Evaluation stops at the fault before later statements run.

    The receiver is evaluated before the day count and each is evaluated once. An earlier fault prevents later evaluation. The operation has no external effects.

    Adding a count and then its negative recovers the starting date when both results lie in range. Date.toIso and the component accessors observe the resulting date without changing it.

    Why

    Calendar arithmetic should depend on a date and a day count. A bounded result with an explicit overflow fault prevents wraparound from silently producing a different civil date.
