Gets the date and time at which this calendar event ends. You must have access to the calendar. For non–all-day events, this is the instant in time at which the event was defined to end. For all-day events, which only store an end date (not a date and time), this is midnight at the beginning of the day after the event ends in the calendar's time zone. This allows meaningful comparison of end times for all types of events; however, it does not necessarily preserve the original day-of-year unmodified.

For all-day events, getAllDayEndDate() should almost always be called in preference to this method.
