package org.kodejava.example.java.util;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
public class LeapYearExample
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Here we show how to know if a specified year is a leap year or not.
// The GregorialCalendar object provide a convenient method to do this.
// The method is GregorianCalendar.isLeapYear().
// First, let's obtain an instance of GregorianCalendar.
GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
// The isLeapYear(int year) method will return true for leap year and
// otherwise return false. In this example the message will be printed
// as 2004 is a leap year.
if (cal.isLeapYear(2004))
{
System.out.println("The year 2004 is a leap year!");
}
}
}

The result of our code is:
The year 2004 is a leap year!
