time_t dt_convert (  const char *    format, const char *    src )

time_t dt_convert (  const char *    format, std::istream &    is )

convert string to date according to format specified format descripption: YY - two digit year YYYY - four digit year MM - two digit month Aaa - Abreviated Three-letter month DD - two digid mday dd - one or two digit mday (mail style) hh,mm,ss - time hoursi (24h), minits, secons ' '(space) - skip all white spaces '.'(dot) - skip any character at this position ';'(semicolon) - remove rest of input

char* dt_format (  char *    dest, int    max_size, char *    format, time_t    t )

todo: make it real function

ostream& dt_format (  std::ostream &    dest, char *    format, time_t    time )

convert timestamp to string according to format specified, very close to strftime, but use time_t instead of struct tm and format specified as for dt_convert

int dt_interval (  char *    src, char **    newptr = 0 )

convert interval to sec from 1h60m30s notation

time_t dt_nearest (  int    year, int    mont, int    mday, int    wday, int    hour = -1, int    min = -1 )

return date nearest to passed, if you specify wday it return nearest date after specified or today with matching wday -1 means '*' wday = 0 to 6 (if defined WEEK_START_MON 0 means MON else SUN) mon = 1 to 12 year should be with century (e.g. 2003);

time_t dt_round (  time_t    t, char *    what = "-d" )

return date part of date_time -d = to day down +d to day up -w = to week down +d to week up -m = to month down +m to month up
