Includes

#include <gst/gst.h>

Description

Struct to store date, time and timezone information altogether. GstDateTime is refcounted and immutable.

Date information is handled using the proleptic Gregorian calendar.

Provides basic creation functions and accessor functions to its fields.

Functions

gst_date_time_get_day ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_day (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Returns the day of the month of this GstDateTime. Call gst_date_time_has_day before, to avoid warnings.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

The day of this GstDateTime


gst_date_time_get_month ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_month (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Returns the month of this GstDateTime. January is 1, February is 2, etc.. Call gst_date_time_has_month before, to avoid warnings.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

The month of this GstDateTime


gst_date_time_get_hour ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_hour (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Retrieves the hour of the day represented by datetime in the gregorian calendar. The return is in the range of 0 to 23. Call gst_date_time_has_haur before, to avoid warnings.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

the hour of the day


gst_date_time_get_microsecond ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_microsecond (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Retrieves the fractional part of the seconds in microseconds represented by datetime in the gregorian calendar.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

the microsecond of the second


gst_date_time_get_minute ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_minute (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Retrieves the minute of the hour represented by datetime in the gregorian calendar. Call gst_date_time_has_minute before, to avoid warnings.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

the minute of the hour


gst_date_time_get_time_zone_offset ()

gfloat
gst_date_time_get_time_zone_offset (const GstDateTime *datetime);

Retrieves the offset from UTC in hours that the timezone specified by datetime represents. Timezones ahead (to the east) of UTC have positive values, timezones before (to the west) of UTC have negative values. If datetime represents UTC time, then the offset is zero.

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

the offset from UTC in hours


gst_date_time_get_second ()

gint
gst_date_time_get_second (const GstDateTime *datetime);

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

the second represented by datetime

Parameters

datetime

a GstDateTime

 

Returns

The year of this GstDateTime


gst_date_time_new ()

GstDateTime *
gst_date_time_new (gfloat tzoffset,
                   gint year,
                   gint month,
                   gint day,
                   gint hour,
                   gint minute,
                   gdouble seconds);

Creates a new GstDateTime using the date and times in the gregorian calendar in the supplied timezone.

year should be from 1 to 9999, month should be from 1 to 12, day from 1 to 31, hour from 0 to 23, minutes and seconds from 0 to 59.

Note that tzoffset is a float and was chosen so for being able to handle some fractional timezones, while it still keeps the readability of representing it in hours for most timezones.

If value is -1 then all over value will be ignored. For example if month == -1, then GstDateTime will created only for year . If day == -1, then GstDateTime will created for year and month and so on.

Free-function: gst_date_time_unref

Parameters

tzoffset

Offset from UTC in hours.

 

year

the gregorian year

 

month

the gregorian month

 

day

the day of the gregorian month

 

hour

the hour of the day

 

minute

the minute of the hour

 

seconds

the second of the minute

 

Returns

the newly created GstDateTime.
