DATE_FROM_TM(3) 					       http://www.synce.org/						   DATE_FROM_TM(3)

NAME

       date_from_tm - convert between tm struct and Windows DATE value

SYNOPSIS

       #include <synce.h>

       bool date_from_tm(struct tm *pTm, DATE *pDateOut);

       bool date_to_tm(DATE dateIn, DWORD dwFlags, struct tm *pTm);

DESCRIPTION

       The  date_from_tm() function converts a tm struct into the Windows DATE field pointed to by pDateOut.  Only years after 1900 are converted.
       The fields tm.tm_wday, tm.tm_yday and tm.tm_isdst are not used.

       date_to_tm() does the reverse. It only fills the fields tm_sec, tm_min, tm_hour, tm_year, tm_day, tm_mon. Dates before January 1st 1900 are
       not  supported.	 dwFlags  should  be  0,  DATE_TIMEVALUEONLY  to omit the date information or DATE_DATEVALUEONLY to omit time information.
       Whereas the tm.tm_year field usually holds the number of years since 1900, this function provides the complete year.

RETURN VALUE

       Both functions return FALSE on encountering an invalid value or year earlier than 1900, or TRUE if successful.

strptime - Parse a time/date generated withstrftime(3)

SYNOPSIS

       array strptime (string  $date, string  $format)

DESCRIPTION

       strptime(3) returns an array with the $date parsed, or FALSE on error.

	Month and weekday names and other language dependent strings respect the current locale set with setlocale(3) ( LC_TIME).

PARAMETERS

	      o $date (
		string) - The string to parse (e.g. returned from strftime(3)).

	      o $format (
		string) - The format used in $date (e.g. the same as used in strftime(3)). Note that some of the format options available to strf-
		time(3) may not have any effect within strptime(3); the exact subset that are supported will vary based on  the  operating  system
		and C library in use.  For more information about the format options, read the strftime(3) page.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an array or FALSE on failure.

       The following parameters are returned in the array

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      strptime(3) example

	      <?php
	      $format = '%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S';
	      $strf = strftime($format);

	      echo "$strf
";

	      print_r(strptime($strf, $format));
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      03/10/2004 15:54:19

	      Array
	      (
		  [tm_sec] => 19
		  [tm_min] => 54
		  [tm_hour] => 15
		  [tm_mday] => 3
		  [tm_mon] => 9
		  [tm_year] => 104
		  [tm_wday] => 0
		  [tm_yday] => 276
		  [unparsed] =>
	      )

NOTES

       Note

	      This function is not implemented on Windows platforms.

       Note

	       Internally, this function calls the strptime() function provided by the system's C library. This function  can  exhibit	noticeably
	      different  behaviour  across  different  operating  systems.  The use of date_parse_from_format(3), which does not suffer from these
	      issues, is recommended on PHP 5.3.0 and later.

       Note

	      "tm_sec" includes any leap seconds (currently upto 2 a year). For more information on leap seconds, see  the  Wikipedia  article	on
	      leap seconds.

       Note

	       Prior  to  PHP  5.2.0,  this function could return undefined behaviour. Notably, the "tm_sec", "tm_min" and "tm_hour" entries would
	      return undefined values.
