Detailed Description
The PDateTime class provides date and time functions, including time-zone management and UTC conversions; PDateTime instances are immutable (thread-safe).
A PDateTime object contains a calendar date (PDate) and a clock time (PTime). It is always stored in UTC.
PDateTime can read the current datetime from the system clock.
It provides functions for comparing datetimes and for manipulating a datetime.

Destroys this object.
Member Function Documentation
◆ AddMillisecond()
| PDateTime PDateTime::AddMillisecond | ( | papillon::int64 | n | ) | const |
Returns a PDateTime object n milliseconds later than the datetime of this object (or earlier if n is negative).
Returns an invalid datetime if the current datetime is invalid or the new datetime is out of range.
◆ Bad()
|
inlinestatic |
Returns the constant holding the bad instance of a PDateTime.
Definition at line 53 of file PDateTime.h.
◆ Compare()
| papillon::int32 PDateTime::Compare | ( | const PDateTime & | other | ) | const |
Compares this datetime with another one, then returns 0 if equal, a negative number if this datetime is earlier than other, a positive number if this datetime is later than other.
◆ Current()
|
static |
Returns the current datetime as reported by the system clock, in the local time zone.
◆ CurrentUTC()
|
static |
Returns the current datetime as reported by the system clock, in UTC.
◆ FromMicrosecondsSinceEpoch()
|
static |
Returns the datetime corresponding to the specified number of microseconds that have passed since 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000 UTC.
◆ FromMillisecondsSinceEpoch()
|
static |
Returns the datetime corresponding to the specified number of milliseconds that have passed since 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000 UTC.
◆ GetDate()
| PDate PDateTime::GetDate | ( | ) | const |
Returns the date of this datetime.
◆ GetMillisecondsTo()
| papillon::int64 PDateTime::GetMillisecondsTo | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns the number of milliseconds from this datetime to d.
If d is earlier than this datetime, the number of milliseconds returned is negative. Returns 0 if either this datetime or d is invalid.
◆ GetOffsetFromUTCInSeconds()
| papillon::int32 PDateTime::GetOffsetFromUTCInSeconds | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of seconds to add to this date time (UTC) to obtain the local time.
This includes any daylight time offset that may be in effect. The result can be positive or negative.
◆ GetTime()
| PTime PDateTime::GetTime | ( | ) | const |
Returns the time of this datetime.
◆ IsValid()
| bool PDateTime::IsValid | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is valid; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator!=()
| bool PDateTime::operator!= | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is different from d; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator<()
| bool PDateTime::operator< | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is earlier than d; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator<=()
| bool PDateTime::operator<= | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is earlier than or equal to d; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator=()
Performs a shared copy of other to this object.
◆ operator==()
| bool PDateTime::operator== | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is equal to d; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator>()
| bool PDateTime::operator> | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is later than d; otherwise returns false.
◆ operator>=()
| bool PDateTime::operator>= | ( | const PDateTime & | d | ) | const |
Returns true if this datetime is later than or equal to d; otherwise returns false.
◆ ToLocalTime()
| PDateTime PDateTime::ToLocalTime | ( | ) | const |
Returns a copy of this datetime converted to local time.
◆ ToMillisecondsSinceEpoch()
| papillon::int64 PDateTime::ToMillisecondsSinceEpoch | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of milliseconds that have passed since 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000 UTC, in local time.
◆ ToString()
Returns the datetime as a string.
By default, use the format "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss,zzz".
The format parameter determines the format of the result string. These expressions may be used for the date:
- d: the day as number without a leading zero (1 to 31)
- dd: the day as number with a leading zero (01 to 31)
- ddd: the abbreviated localized day name (e.g. 'Mon' to 'Sun')
- dddd: the long localized day name (e.g. 'Monday' to 'Sunday')
- M: the month as number without a leading zero (1-12)
- MM: the month as number with a leading zero (01-12)
- MMM: the abbreviated localized month name (e.g. 'Jan' to 'Dec')
- MMMM: the long localized month name (e.g. 'January' to 'December')
- yy: the year as two digit number (00-99)
- yyyy: the year as four digit number
These expressions may be used for the time:
- h: the hour without a leading zero (0 to 23 or 1 to 12 if AM/PM display)
- hh: the hour with a leading zero (00 to 23 or 01 to 12 if AM/PM display)
- H: the hour without a leading zero (0 to 23, even with AM/PM display)
- HH: the hour with a leading zero (00 to 23, even with AM/PM display)
- m: the minute without a leading zero (0 to 59)
- mm: the minute with a leading zero (00 to 59)
- s: the second without a leading zero (0 to 59)
- ss: the second with a leading zero (00 to 59)
- z: the milliseconds without leading zeros (0 to 999)
- zzz: the milliseconds with leading zeros (000 to 999)
- AP or A: use AM/PM display. A/AP will be replaced by either "AM" or "PM".
- ap or a: use am/pm display. a/ap will be replaced by either "am" or "pm".
- t: the timezone (for example "UTC")
All other input characters will be ignored. Any sequence of characters that are enclosed in single quotes will be treated as text and not be used as an expression. Two consecutive single quotes ("''") are replaced by a single quote in the output. Formats without separators (e.g. "HHmm") are currently not supported.
◆ ToStringISO()
| PString PDateTime::ToStringISO | ( | ) | const |
Returns the ISO 8601 string corresponding to the datetime (it does not contain milliseconds).
Format is "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ" for a UTC date/time, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601 to learn more.
◆ ToStringISOWithMs()
| PString PDateTime::ToStringISOWithMs | ( | ) | const |
Returns the ISO 8601 string corresponding to the datetime, including milliseconds.
Format is "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.zzzZ" for a UTC date/time, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601 to learn more.
◆ ToUTC()
| PDateTime PDateTime::ToUTC | ( | ) | const |
Returns a copy of this datetime converted to UTC time.
