e_time_parse_date_and_time ()

ETimeParseStatus
e_time_parse_date_and_time (const gchar *value,
                            struct tm *result);

Parses a string value containing a date and a time and stores the result in result . The date in value is expected to be in a format like "Wed 3/13/00 14:20:00", though gettext() is used to support the appropriate local formats. There is also some leniency on the format of the string, e.g. the weekday can be skipped or 12-hour formats with am/pm can be used.

e_time_parse_date ()

ETimeParseStatus
e_time_parse_date (const gchar *value,
                   struct tm *result);

Takes in a date string entered by the user and tries to convert it to a struct tm.

e_time_parse_date_and_time_ex ()

ETimeParseStatus
e_time_parse_date_and_time_ex (const gchar *value,
                               struct tm *result,
                               gboolean *two_digit_year);

Parses a string value containing a date and a time and stores the result in result . The date in value is expected to be in a format like "Wed 3/13/00 14:20:00", though gettext() is used to support the appropriate local formats. There is also some leniency on the format of the string, e.g. the weekday can be skipped or 12-hour formats with am/pm can be used.

ETimeParseStatus
e_time_parse_date_ex (const gchar *value,
                      struct tm *result,
                      gboolean *two_digit_year);

Takes in a date string entered by the user and tries to convert it to a struct tm.

e_time_parse_time ()

ETimeParseStatus
e_time_parse_time (const gchar *value,
                   struct tm *result);

Parses value , a string containing a time. value is expected to be in a format like "14:20:00". gettext() is used to support the appropriate local formats and slightly different formats, such as 12-hour formats with am/pm, are accepted as well.

e_time_format_date_and_time ()

void
e_time_format_date_and_time (struct tm *date_tm,
                             gboolean use_24_hour_format,
                             gboolean show_midnight,
                             gboolean show_zero_seconds,
                             gchar *buffer,
                             gint buffer_size);

Creates a string representation of the time value date_tm and stores it in buffer . buffer_size should be at least 64 to be safe. If show_midnight is FALSE, and the time is midnight, then only the date is stored in buffer . If show_zero_seconds is FALSE, then if the time has zero seconds only the hour and minute of the time are stored in buffer .

e_time_format_time ()

void
e_time_format_time (struct tm *date_tm,
                    gboolean use_24_hour_format,
                    gboolean show_zero_seconds,
                    gchar *buffer,
                    gint buffer_size);

Creates a string representation of a time value in date_tm and stores it in buffer . buffer_size should be at least 64.

e_mktime_utc ()

time_t
e_mktime_utc (struct tm *tm);

Like mktime(3), but assumes UTC instead of local timezone.

e_localtime_with_offset ()

void
e_localtime_with_offset (time_t tt,
                         struct tm *tm,
                         gint *offset);

Converts the calendar time time representation tt to a broken-down time representation, store in tm , and provides the offset in seconds from UTC time, stored in offset .

e_time_get_d_fmt_with_4digit_year ()

gchar *
e_time_get_d_fmt_with_4digit_year (void);

Retrieves a date format string with a 4-digit year (D_FMT on systems with nl_langinfo() available). Free the returned string with g_free().
