I am trying to use the isLeapYear function in my program and it doesn't seem to be working. Here is a bit of code:

Code:

Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
boolean leap = cal.isLeapYear(2004);

I am getting the following error when I try to compile it:

Code:

cannot resolve symbol method isLeapYear(int)

All of my other calendar methods are working fine so I don't know what is going on. I am using java sdk 1.4.2_03. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just define your "cal" variable as a GregorianCalendar, not a Calendar. isLeapYear() is not a method on Calendar, only on GregorianCalendar.
