## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ OFDate() [1/3]

OFDate::OFDate | ( |  | ) |

default constructor.

Initializes Year, Month and Day to 0.

Referenced by OFDate(), getCurrentDate(), operator!=(), operator<(), operator<=(), operator=(), operator==(), operator>(), and operator>=().

## ◆ OFDate() [2/3]

OFDate::OFDate | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) |

copy constructor

Parameters

  dateVal | date object to be copied

  day | day value to be set

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ clear()

virtual void OFDate::clear | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

reset the date value.

Sets the year, month and day to "0". NB: Date becomes invalid.

## ◆ getCurrentDate()

static OFDate OFDate::getCurrentDate | ( |  | ) |
| static

get the current system date

Returns
  date object with the current system date set

References OFDate().

## ◆ getDay()

unsigned int OFDate::getDay | ( |  | ) | const

get the currently stored day value

Returns
  day value (might be invalid, i.e. out of range)

## ◆ getISOFormattedDate()

OFBool OFDate::getISOFormattedDate | ( | OFString & | formattedDate,
|  | const OFBool | showDelimiter = OFTrue ) const

get the current date value in ISO format.

The two ISO date formats supported by this function are "YYYY-MM-DD" (with delimiters) and "YYYYMMDD" (without delimiters, useful for DICOM date type).

Parameters

  formattedDate | reference to string variable where the result is stored
  showDelimiter | flag, indicating whether to use delimiters ("-") or not

Returns
  OFTrue if result variable has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ getMonth()

unsigned int OFDate::getMonth | ( |  | ) | const

get the currently stored month value

Returns
  month value (might be invalid, i.e. out of range)

## ◆ getYear()

unsigned int OFDate::getYear | ( |  | ) | const

get the currently stored year value

Returns
  year value (might be invalid, i.e. out of range)

## ◆ isDateValid()

static OFBool OFDate::isDateValid | ( | const unsigned int | year,
|  | const unsigned int | month,
|  | const unsigned int | day )
| static protected

check whether the given date is valid.

Currently, this method only checks whether the month is within the range of 1 to 12 and the day is within the range of 1 to 31. In the future this routine might be enhanced.

Parameters

  year | year value to be checked
  month | month value to be checked
  day | day value to be checked

Returns
  OFTrue if the current value is valid, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ isValid()

virtual OFBool OFDate::isValid | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual

check whether the currently stored date value is valid.

Currently, this method only checks whether the month is within the range of 1 to 12 and the day is within the range of 1 to 31. In the future this routine might be enhanced.

Returns
  OFTrue if the current value is valid, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ operator!=()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator!= | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (unequal)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

Returns
  OFTrue if given date is unequal, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator<()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator< | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (less than)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

Returns
  OFTrue if current date is earlier than the given value, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator<=()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator<= | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (less than or equal)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

Returns
  OFTrue if current date is earlier than or identical to the given value, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator=()

virtual OFDate & OFDate::operator= | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) |
| virtual

assignment operator

Parameters

  dateVal | date value to be set

Returns
  reference to this object (with new value)

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator==()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator== | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (equal)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

Returns
  OFTrue if given date is equal, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator>()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator> | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (greater than)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

Returns
  OFTrue if current date is later than the given value, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ operator>=()

virtual OFBool OFDate::operator>= | ( | const OFDate & | dateVal | ) | const
| virtual

comparison operator (greater than or equal)

Parameters

  dateVal | date value compared with the current value

  OFTrue if current date is later than or identical to the given value, OFFalse otherwise

References OFDate().

## ◆ setCurrentDate() [1/2]

OFBool OFDate::setCurrentDate | ( |  | ) |

set the date value to the current system date.

This function uses operating system dependent routines. If they are unavailable for some reason the current value is not modified.

Returns
  OFTrue if the current system date has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setCurrentDate() [2/2]

OFBool OFDate::setCurrentDate | ( | const time_t & | tt | ) |
| protected

set the date value to the current system date.

This function uses operating system dependent routines. If they are unavailable for some reason the current value is not modified.

Parameters

  tt | current system time (as returned by the time() function )

Returns
  OFTrue if the current system date has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setDate()

OFBool OFDate::setDate | ( | const unsigned int | year,
|  | const unsigned int | month,
|  | const unsigned int | day )

set the date value to the specified date.

Before the new value is set it is checked using the "isValid()" routine.

Parameters

  year | new year value to be set
  month | new month value to be set
  day | new day value to be set

Returns
  OFTrue if the new value is valid and has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setDay()

OFBool OFDate::setDay | ( | const unsigned int | day | ) |

set the date value to the specified day.

Before the new value is set it is checked using the "isValid()" routine.

Parameters

  day | new day value to be set

Returns
  OFTrue if the new value is valid and has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setISOFormattedDate()

OFBool OFDate::setISOFormattedDate | ( | const OFString & | formattedDate | ) |

set the date value to the given ISO formatted date string.

The two ISO date formats supported by this function are "YYYY-MM-DD" (with arbitrary delimiters) and "YYYYMMDD" (without delimiters, useful for DICOM date type).

Parameters

  formattedDate | ISO formatted date value to be set

Returns
  OFTrue if input is valid and result variable has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setMonth()

OFBool OFDate::setMonth | ( | const unsigned int | month | ) |

set the date value to the specified month.

Before the new value is set it is checked using the "isValid()" routine.

Parameters

  month | new month value to be set

Returns
  OFTrue if the new value is valid and has been set, OFFalse otherwise

## ◆ setYear()

OFBool OFDate::setYear | ( | const unsigned int | year | ) |

set the date value to the specified year.

Before the new value is set it is checked using the "isValid()" routine.

Parameters

  year | new year value to be set

Returns
  OFTrue if the new value is valid and has been set, OFFalse otherwise
