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.
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.
 An ETimeParseStatus result code indicating whether
value
was an empty string, a valid date, or an invalid date.
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.
| value | The string to parse a date and time from. | |
| result | A tm to store the result in. | |
| two_digit_year | set to TRUE, is parsing with two-digit year, else FALSE, but only when not NULL. | 
E_TIME_PARSE_OK if the string was successfully parsed, E_TIME_PARSE_NONE if the string was empty, or E_TIME_PARSE_INVALID if the string could not be parsed.
Since: 2.22
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.
| value | A date string. | |
| result | Return value for the parsed date. | |
| two_digit_year | set to TRUE, is parsing with two-digit year, else FALSE, but only when not NULL. |

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.
 An ETimeParseStatus result code indicating whether
value
was an empty string, a valid date, or an invalid date.
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
.
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.
time_t
e_mktime_utc (struct tm *tm);
Like mktime(3), but assumes UTC instead of local timezone.
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
.
| tt | The time_t to convert. | |
| tm | The tm to store the result in. | |
| offset | The int to store the offset in. |
