I have a vector string of dates in the from "dd-mmm-yyyy" so for example
todays date would be:
std::string today("07-Sep-2010");
I'd like to use the date class in boost but to create a date object the
constructor for date needs to be called as follows:
date test(2010,Sep,07);
Is there any easy/elegant way of passing dates in the format "dd-mmm-yyyy"?
My first thought was to use substr and then cast it? But I've read that there's also
the possibility of using 'date facets'?
Thanks!
include "boost/date_time/gregorian/parsers.hpp"
date test = boost::gregorian::from_us_string("07-Sep-2010")
There is a builtin parser for this form of date in Boost itself, check out the docs here:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_44_0/doc/html/date_time/date_time_io.html#date_time.io_objects
date_type parse_date(...)
Parameters:
string_type input
string_type format
special_values_parser
Parse a date from the given input using the given format.
string inp("2005-Apr-15");
string format("%Y-%b-%d");
date d;
d = parser.parse_date(inp,
format,
svp);
// d == 2005-Apr-15
with inp adjusted for your needs.

I am trying to parse the date using ParseDateTime method provided by COleDateTime class. But parsing of two different dates in the same program is returning inconsisent values for the month.
Code Snippet:
COleDateTime dtCreated;
dtCreated.ParseDateTime(safe_cast<CString>(strCreatedDate));
Inconsistent RESULTS:
if strCreatedDate = "10/7/2020" (in mm.dd.yyyy format)
then dtCreated.GetMonth() = 7 (but it should be 10)
if strCreatedDate = "7/29/2020" (in mm.dd.yyyy format)
then dtCreated.GetMonth() = 7 (in this case, it is correct)
UPDATE:
The value of date present in the strCreatedDate vairable could be "dd.mm.yyyy" OR "mm.dd.yyyy" format. But I do have the information about the data format available in a separate variable. Based on the format, I want COleDateTime to correctly parse the DateTime string. How can I do that?
Since String^ is your input you could use DateTime::ParseExact, and then convert DateTime to COleDateTime using DateTime.ToOADate:
COleDateTime dtCreated(DateTime::ParseExact(
strCreatedDate, isDMY ? "d.M.yyyy" : "M.d.yyyy", nullptr).ToOADate());
I'm writing an application with Flutter. I read the times and dates from a source. The date and time format string sent by the resource is:
(Day, Month, Year, Hour, Minute, Second)
07.04.2021 13:30:00
03.04.2021 11:30:00
04.04.2021 17:30:00
03.04.2021 17:30:00
I want to convert this date and time format to DateTime data type with DateTime.parse() function. Here are some examples of what this function accepts as strings and what I need:
"2012-02-27 13:27:00"
"20120227 13:27:00"
"20120227T132700"
I have to convert the string type data coming to me from the source into one of these formats. But in Dart language I couldn't create the Regular Expression needed to do this and couldn't find it anywhere.
I would be very grateful if anyeone could help me understand what I should do.
If you have to play a lot with the dates, you could use the Jiffy package to ease your development.
DateTime yourDatetime = Jiffy("07.04.2021 13:30:00", "dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm:ss").dateTime;
This is a piece a cake by using regular expressions:
var regExp = RegExp(r'(\d{4}-?\d\d-?\d\d(\s|T)\d\d:?\d\d:?\d\d)');
use DateFormat.parse and DateFormat.format from intl package:
https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/intl/DateFormat/parse.html
https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/intl/DateFormat/format.html
final date = DateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss").parse("07.04.2021 13:30:00");
DateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss").format(date);
DateTime.parse accepts only a subset of ISO 8601 formats: https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/dart-core/DateTime/parse.html
I'm trying to get current date from the system clock and change its format (i.e. to this format dd/MM/yyyy). After that I need to set QDateEdit using setDate(). My problem is that using fromString() with QDate::currentDate() returns an invalid date. This is the piece of code regarding this issue
QDate date = QDate::currentDate().fromString("dd/MM/yyyy");
qDebug() << date.toString(); // <-- returns empty string
StartDateEdit->setDate(date); // <-- adding invalid date shows 1-1-2000
My system clock has this format M/d/yyyy in Windows 10. Any suggestions?
QDate::currentDate() is a static function, this returns the current date, the object stores the date, not the format. If you want to display the form: "dd/MM/yyyy" you must use the setDisplayFormat function of QDateEdit.
QDate date = QDate::currentDate();
StartDateEdit->setDate(date);
StartDateEdit->setDisplayFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
Note:The fromString function converts a string to QDate indicating the format of the string.
I am programming in c++,i have a requirement as to get the date only ,rest of the components are not needed,
i have contents in my file in the following way:-
2012-03-26T15:05:24.844Z - DEBUG: Logging_Test:test3 : Testing file logger
2012-03-26T15:05:24.844Z->this part is returned from a function GetDateTime(),which has a stringstream sDateStream and returing to the function GetDateTime() a string
My objective is just to get the date from this part and compare it with the system's date and for the system date i m using:-
void FileLogger::date()
{
SYSTEMTIME time;//variable time to get the system time
GetLocalTime(&time);//reference to the timek
int hour = time.wHour;
if (hour > 12) hour -= 12;
int year = time.wYear;
int month = time.wMonth;
int day = time.wDay;
//not returning anything just storing values of day ,month
//& year
}
now i need to make a comparision b/w two dates and if the date in the .txt is smaller than today's date a new file gets created
please help guys i know it is very simple for the masters but for a starter like me it is creating troubles , please provide help in form of some code so that i can understand it
If you've got the line as a string, and you're sure of the format, the
simplest solution would be:
std::string dateString(
line.begin(), std::find( line.begin(), line.end(), 'T' ) );
(I'd still do some extra checking; e.g. that the dateString is exactly
10 characters long, that it only contains digits or '-', etc.)
This is the ISO date format; it has been especially designed to support
comparison directly as a string, so you might want to consider getting
the system date as a string in ISO format as well. (This is very easy
if you use the standard functions time, localtime and strftime.)
I searched a bit but couldn't find the answer.
I want to get current date and format to YYYYMMDD
I cannot use EXSLT as per my requirements.
A very simple Inline C# Script Functoid could look like this:
public string MyDateFormat(string dateValue)
{
string result = String.Empty;
string outputFormat = "{0:yyyyMMdd}";
DateTime parsed;
if (DateTime.TryParse(dateValue, out parsed))
{
result = String.Format(outputFormat, parsed);
}
else
{
result = String.Format(outputFormat, DateTime.MinValue);
}
return result;
}
For a similar problem I created a External Assembly which will allow to specify CultureInfo for parsing the input DateTime string and also submit the output format string as a functoid input parameter.
You want the substring to act on the date.
To get the date:
substring-before($dateTime, 'T')
To get the year you want to work on the above result:
substring-before($previousResult, '-')
Then concatenate the values you got from the string manipulations.
This explains the whole thing and wraps it on a template: Format a date in XML via XSLT
etc
Hope this helps.
