## Detailed Description

C++ form of SQL's DATE type.

Objects of this class can be inserted into streams, and initialized from SQL DATE strings.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

mysqlpp::Date::Date | ( | unsigned short | y,
|  | unsigned char | m,
|  | unsigned char | d
| ) |  |
| inline

Initialize object.

Parameters

  y | year, 1000-9999
  m | month, 1-12
  d | day of month, 1-31

mysqlpp::Date::Date | ( | const char * | str | ) |
| inline explicit

Initialize object from a C string containing a date.

String must be in the YYYY-MM-DD format. It doesn't have to be zero-padded.

template<class Str >

mysqlpp::Date::Date | ( | const Str & | str | ) |
| inline explicit

Initialize object from a C++ string containing a date.

This works with any stringish class that declares a c_str() member function: std::string, mysqlpp::String...

See Also
  Date(const char*)

mysqlpp::Date::Date | ( | time_t | t | ) |
| explicit

Initialize object from a `time_t`.

Naturally, we throw away the "time" part of the `time_t`. If you need to keep it, you want to use DateTime instead.

## Member Function Documentation

int mysqlpp::Date::compare | ( | const Date & | other | ) | const
| virtual

Compare this date to another.

Returns < 0 if this date is before the other, 0 of they are equal, and > 0 if this date is after the other.

Implements mysqlpp::Comparable< Date >.

mysqlpp::Date::operator time_t | ( |  | ) | const

Convert to time_t.

The "time" part of the `time_t` is "now"

unsigned short mysqlpp::Date::year | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Get the date's year part.

There's no trickery here like in some date implementations where you have to add 1900 or something like that.

Referenced by mysqlpp::DateTime::convert().

void mysqlpp::Date::year | ( | unsigned short | y | ) |
| inline

Change the date's year part.

Pass the year value normally; we don't optimize the value by subtracting 1900 like some other date implementations.
