Method Detail

loadTimeSteps

SortedMap<DateComponents,Integer> loadTimeSteps()

Load UTC-TAI offsets entries.

Only the integer offsets used since 1972-01-01 are loaded here, the linear offsets used between 1961-01-01 and 1971-12-31 are hard-coded in the UTCScale class itself.

Returns:

sorted UTC-TAI offsets entries (may be empty)

getSupportedNames
