Wrong example in LocalDateTime.minusYears documentation

XMLWordPrintable

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The example included in the documentation of method minusYears of class LocalDateTime adds a year instead of subtracting it.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Access https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/LocalDateTime.html#minusYears-long-

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      "For example, 2008-02-29 (leap year) minus one year would result in the invalid date 2007-02-29 (standard year). Instead of returning an invalid result, the last valid day of the month, 2007-02-28, is selected instead."
      ACTUAL -
      "For example, 2008-02-29 (leap year) minus one year would result in the invalid date 2009-02-29 (standard year). Instead of returning an invalid result, the last valid day of the month, 2009-02-28, is selected instead."
