Converting from the internal representation (milliseconds since midnight, January 1, 1970) to text is known as "formatting," and converting from text to millis is known as "parsing." We currently define only one concrete subclass of DateFormat: SimpleDateFormat, which can handle pretty much all normal date formatting and parsing actions.
DateFormat helps you to format and parse dates for any locale. Your code can be completely independent of the locale conventions for months, days of the week, or even the calendar format: lunar vs. solar.
To format a date for the current Locale, use one of the static factory methods:
. DateFormat* dfmt = DateFormat::createDateInstance(); . UnicodeString myString; . myString = dfmt->format( myDate, myString );
. DateFormat* df = DateFormat::createDateInstance(); . UnicodeString myString; . UDate myDateArr[] = { 0.0, 100000000.0, 2000000000.0 }; // test values . for (int32_t i = 0; i < 3; ++i) { . myString.remove(); . cout << df->format( myDateArr[i], myString ) << endl; . }
. DateFormat* df = . DateFormat::createDateInstance( DateFormat::SHORT, Locale::FRANCE);
. UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR; . UDate myDate = df->parse(myString, status);
You can also use forms of the parse and format methods with ParsePosition and FieldPosition to allow you to
enum DateFormat::EField |
The following enum values are used in FieldPosition with date/time formatting.
They are also used to index into DateFormatSymbols::fgPatternChars, which is the list of standard internal-representation pattern characters, and the resource bundle localPatternChars data. For this reason, this enum should be treated with care; don't change the order or contents of it unless you really know what you are doing. You'll probably have to change the code in DateFormatSymbols, SimpleDateFormat, and all the locale resource bundle data files.

enum DateFormat::EStyle |
Constants for various style patterns.
These reflect the order of items in the DateTimePatterns resource. There are 4 time patterns, 4 date patterns, and then the date-time pattern. Each block of 4 values in the resource occurs in the order full, long, medium, short.
virtual DateFormat::~DateFormat () [virtual]
|
Destructor.
virtual bool_t DateFormat::operator== (const Format & other) const [virtual]
|
Equality operator.
Returns true if the two formats have the same behavior.
Reimplemented from Format.
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
virtual UnicodeString & DateFormat::format (const Formattable & obj, UnicodeString & toAppendTo, FieldPosition & pos, UErrorCode & status) const [virtual]
|
Format an object to produce a string.
This method handles Formattable objects with a UDate type. If a the Formattable object type is not a Date, then it returns a failing UErrorCode.
obj | The object to format. Must be a Date. |
toAppendTo | The result of the formatting operation is appended to this string. |
pos | On input: an alignment field, if desired. On output: the offsets of the alignment field. |
status | Output param filled with success/failure status. |
Reimplemented from Format.
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
virtual UnicodeString & DateFormat::format (UDate date, UnicodeString & toAppendTo, FieldPosition & pos) const [pure virtual]
|
Formats a UDate into a date/time string.
This is an abstract method which concrete subclasses must implement.
On input, the FieldPosition parameter may have its "field" member filled with an enum value specifying a field. On output, the FieldPosition will be filled in with the text offsets for that field.
For example, given a time text "1996.07.10 AD at 15:08:56 PDT", if the given fieldPosition.field is DateFormat::kYearField, the offsets fieldPosition.beginIndex and statfieldPositionus.getEndIndex will be set to 0 and 4, respectively.
Notice that if the same time field appears more than once in a pattern, the status will be set for the first occurence of that time field. For instance, formatting a UDate to the time string "1 PM PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)" using the pattern "h a z (zzzz)" and the alignment field DateFormat::TIMEZONE_FIELD, the offsets fieldPosition.beginIndex and fieldPosition.getEndIndex will be set to 5 and 8, respectively, for the first occurence of the timezone pattern character 'z'.
date | a UDate to be formatted into a date/time string. |
toAppendTo | the result of the formatting operation is appended to the end of this string. |
fieldPosition | On input: an alignment field, if desired (see examples above) On output: the offsets of the alignment field (see examples above) |
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
UnicodeString & DateFormat::format (UDate date, UnicodeString & result) const |
Formats a UDate into a date/time string.
If there is a problem, you won't know, using this method. Use the overloaded format() method which takes a FieldPosition& to detect formatting problems.
date | The UDate value to be formatted into a string. |
result | Output param which will receive the formatted date. |
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
UnicodeString & DateFormat::format (const Formattable & obj, UnicodeString & result, UErrorCode & status) const [inline]
|
virtual UDate DateFormat::parse (const UnicodeString & text, UErrorCode & status) const [virtual]
|
Parse a date/time string.
text | The string to be parsed into a UDate value. |
status | Output param to be set to success/failure code. If 'text' cannot be parsed, it will be set to a failure code. |
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
virtual UDate DateFormat::parse (const UnicodeString & text, ParsePosition & pos) const [pure virtual]
|
Parse a date/time string beginning at the given parse position.
For example, a time text "07/10/96 4:5 PM, PDT" will be parsed into a Date that is equivalent to Date(837039928046).
By default, parsing is lenient: If the input is not in the form used by this object's format method but can still be parsed as a date, then the parse succeeds. Clients may insist on strict adherence to the format by calling setLenient(false).
text | The date/time string to be parsed |
pos | On input, the position at which to start parsing; on output, the position at which parsing terminated, or the start position if the parse failed. |
Reimplemented in SimpleDateFormat.
virtual void DateFormat::parseObject (const UnicodeString & source, Formattable & result, ParsePosition & parse_pos) const [virtual]
|
Parse a string to produce an object.
This methods handles parsing of date/time strings into Formattable objects with UDate types.
Before calling, set parse_pos.index to the offset you want to start parsing at in the source. After calling, parse_pos.index is the end of the text you parsed. If error occurs, index is unchanged.
When parsing, leading whitespace is discarded (with a successful parse), while trailing whitespace is left as is.
See Format::parseObject() for more.
source | The string to be parsed into an object. |
result | Formattable to be set to the parse result. If parse fails, return contents are undefined. |
parse_pos | The position to start parsing at. Upon return this param is set to the position after the last character successfully parsed. If the source is not parsed successfully, this param will remain unchanged. |
Reimplemented from Format.
virtual bool_t DateFormat::isLenient (void) const [virtual]
|
Returns true if the formatter is set for lenient parsing.
virtual void DateFormat::setLenient (bool_t lenient) [virtual]
|
Specify whether or not date/time parsing is to be lenient.
With lenient parsing, the parser may use heuristics to interpret inputs that do not precisely match this object's format. With strict parsing, inputs must match this object's format.
virtual const Calendar * DateFormat::getCalendar (void) const [virtual]
|
Gets the calendar associated with this date/time formatter.
virtual void DateFormat::adoptCalendar (Calendar * calendarToAdopt) [virtual]
|
Set the calendar to be used by this date format.
Initially, the default calendar for the specified or default locale is used. The caller should not delete the Calendar object after it is adopted by this call.
virtual void DateFormat::setCalendar (const Calendar & newCalendar) [virtual]
|
Set the calendar to be used by this date format.
Initially, the default calendar for the specified or default locale is used.
virtual const NumberFormat * DateFormat::getNumberFormat (void) const [virtual]
|
Gets the number formatter which this date/time formatter uses to format and parse the numeric portions of the pattern.
virtual void DateFormat::adoptNumberFormat (NumberFormat * formatToAdopt) [virtual]
|
