A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
java.time.LocalDate.plusDays(1) does not always switch year correctly at end of december an begin of january. Seems to happen only in last/first week of year (less than 7 wrong dates).

same behaviour when using java.time.LocalDate.minusDays(1).

see Code in 'Steps to Reproduce'

This is a show-stopper.

For monthly and weekly presentation i tried to generate a List of LocalDate. I found no workaround with java.time API.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
java.time.LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2014, Month.DECEMBER, 28); // 2014-12-28
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2015-12-29 => expected 2014-12-29
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2015-12-30 => expected 2014-12-30
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2015-12-31 => expected 2014-12-31
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2015-01-01


LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2020, Month.DECEMBER, 31); // 2020-12-31
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2020-01-01 => expected 2021-01-01
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2020-01-02 => expected 2021-01-02
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2020-01-03 => expected 2021-01-03
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2021-01-04

// okay for year 2017
LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2017, Month.DECEMBER, 31); // 2017-12-31
date = date.plusDays(1); // 2018-01-01




REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
