Adds or subtracts 1 from the year value.

1,2) Performs *this + = std::chrono::years { 1 } ;
3,4) Performs *this - = std::chrono::years { 1 } ;

Parameters

(none)

Return value

1,3) A reference to this year after modification.
2,4) A copy of the year made before modification.

Notes

If the result would be outside the range [ -32767 32767 ]

Example

#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;
 
    std::chrono::year y{2020};
    std::cout << (++y == std::chrono::year(2021)) << ' ';
    std::cout << (--y == std::chrono::year(2020)) << '\n';
 
    using namespace std::literals::chrono_literals;
    y = 32767y;
    y++; //← unspecified, see ↑ Notes ↑
    std::cout << static_cast<int>(y) << '\n';
}

Possible output:

true true
-32768
