.SH DESCRIPTION
The QDateTime class provides date and time functions.
.PP
A QDateTime object contains a calendar date and a clock time (a" datetime"). It is a combination of the QDate and QTime classes. It can read the current datetime from the system clock. It provides functions for comparing datetimes and for manipulating a datetime by adding a number of seconds, days, months or years.
.PP
A QDateTime object is typically created either by giving a date and time explicitly in the constructor, or by using the static function currentDateTime(), which returns a QDateTime object set to the system clock's time. The date and time can be changed with setDate() and setTime(). A datetime can also be set using the setTime_t() function, which takes a POSIX-standard "number of seconds since 00:00:00 on January 1, 1970" value. The fromString() function returns a QDate given a string and a date format which is used to interpret the date within the string.
.PP
The date() and time() functions provide access to the date and time parts of the datetime. The same information is provided in textual format by the toString() function.
.PP
QDateTime provides a full set of operators to compare two QDateTime objects where smaller means earlier and larger means later.
.PP
You can increment (or decrement) a datetime by a given number of seconds using addSecs() or days using addDays(). Similarly you can use addMonths() and addYears(). The daysTo() function returns the number of days between two datetimes, and sectTo() returns the number of seconds between two datetimes.
.PP
The range of a datetime object is constrained to the ranges of the QDate and QTime objects which it embodies.
.PP
See also QDate, QTime, QDateTimeEdit and Time and Date.
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QDateTime::QDateTime ()"
Constructs a null datetime (i.e. null date and null time). A null datetime is invalid, since the date is invalid.
.PP
See also isValid().
.SH "QDateTime::QDateTime ( const QDate & date )"
Constructs a datetime with date \fIdate\fR and null time (00:00:00.000).
.SH "QDateTime::QDateTime ( const QDate & date, const QTime & time )"
Constructs a datetime with date \fIdate\fR and time \fItime\fR.
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::addDays ( int ndays ) const"
Returns a QDateTime object containing a datetime \fIndays\fR days later than the datetime of this object (or earlier if \fIndays\fR is negative).
.PP
See also daysTo(), addMonths(), addYears() and addSecs().
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::addMonths ( int nmonths ) const"
Returns a QDateTime object containing a datetime \fInmonths\fR months later than the datetime of this object (or earlier if \fInmonths\fR is negative).
.PP
See also daysTo(), addDays(), addYears() and addSecs().
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::addSecs ( int nsecs ) const"
Returns a QDateTime object containing a datetime \fInsecs\fR seconds later than the datetime of this object (or earlier if \fInsecs\fR is negative).
.PP
See also secsTo(), addDays(), addMonths() and addYears().
.PP
Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::addYears ( int nyears ) const"
Returns a QDateTime object containing a datetime \fInyears\fR years later than the datetime of this object (or earlier if \fInyears\fR is negative).
.PP
See also daysTo(), addDays(), addMonths() and addSecs().
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::currentDateTime ()\fC [static]\fR"
Returns the current datetime, as reported by the system clock.
.PP
See also QDate::currentDate() and QTime::currentTime().
.PP
Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.
.SH "QDate QDateTime::date () const"
Returns the date part of the datetime.
.PP
See also setDate() and time().
.SH "int QDateTime::daysTo ( const QDateTime & dt ) const"
Returns the number of days from this datetime to \fIdt\fR (which is negative if \fIdt\fR is earlier than this datetime).
.PP
See also addDays() and secsTo().
.SH "QDateTime QDateTime::fromString ( const QString & s, Qt::DateFormat f = Qt::TextDate )\fC [static]\fR"
Returns the QDateTime represented by the string \fIs\fR, using the format \fIf\fR, or an invalid datetime if this is not possible.
.PP
Note that Qt::LocalDate cannot be used here.
.PP
Note for Qt::TextDate: It is recommended to use the English short month names (e.g. Jan). Localized month names may also be used, but they depend on the user's locale settings.
.SH "bool QDateTime::isNull () const"
Returns TRUE if both the date and the time are null; otherwise returns FALSE. A null datetime is invalid.
.PP
See also QDate::isNull() and QTime::isNull().
.SH "bool QDateTime::isValid () const"
Returns TRUE if both the date and the time are valid; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP
See also QDate::isValid() and QTime::isValid().
.SH "bool QDateTime::operator!= ( const QDateTime & dt ) const"
Returns TRUE if this datetime is different from \fIdt\fR; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP
See also operator==().
.SH "bool QDateTime::operator< ( const QDateTime & dt ) const"
Returns TRUE if this datetime is earlier than \fIdt\fR, otherwise returns FALSE.
.SH "bool QDateTime::operator<= ( const QDateTime & dt ) const"
Returns TRUE if this datetime is earlier than or equal to \fIdt\fR, otherwise returns FALSE.

Returns TRUE if this datetime is later than or equal to \fIdt\fR, otherwise returns FALSE.
.SH "int QDateTime::secsTo ( const QDateTime & dt ) const"
Returns the number of seconds from this datetime to \fIdt\fR (which is negative if \fIdt\fR is earlier than this datetime).
.PP
Example:
.PP
.nf
.br
    QDateTime dt = QDateTime::currentDateTime();
.br
    QDateTime xmas( QDate(dt.year(),12,24), QTime(17,00) );
.br
    qDebug( "There are %d seconds to Christmas", dt.secsTo(xmas) );
.br
.fi
.PP
See also addSecs(), daysTo() and QTime::secsTo().
.SH "void QDateTime::setDate ( const QDate & date )"
Sets the date part of this datetime to \fIdate\fR.
.PP
See also date() and setTime().
.SH "void QDateTime::setTime ( const QTime & time )"
Sets the time part of this datetime to \fItime\fR.
.PP
See also time() and setDate().
.SH "void QDateTime::setTime_t ( uint secsSince1Jan1970UTC )"
Sets the date and time to local time given the number of seconds that have passed since 00:00:00 on January 1, 1970, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). On systems that do not support timezones this function will behave as if local time were UTC.

Note that Microsoft Windows supports only a limited range of values for \fIsecsSince1Jan1970UTC\fR.
.SH "QTime QDateTime::time () const"
Returns the time part of the datetime.
.PP
See also setTime() and date().
.SH "QString QDateTime::toString ( const QString & format ) const"
Returns the datetime as a string. The \fIformat\fR parameter determines the format of the result string.
.PP
These expressions may be used for the date:
.TP
\fId\fR - the day as number without a leading zero (1-31)
.TP
\fIdd\fR - the day as number with a leading zero (01-31)
.TP
\fIddd\fR - the abbrevated day name (Mon - Sun). Uses QDate::shortDayName().
.TP
\fIdddd\fR - the long day name (Monday - Sunday). Uses QDate::longDayName().
.TP
\fIM\fR - the month as number without a leading zero (1-12)
.TP
\fIMM\fR - the month as number with a leading zero (01-12)
.TP
\fIMMM\fR - the abbrevated month name (Jan - Dec). Uses QDate::shortMonthName().

.TP
\fIyy\fR - the year as two digit number (00-99)
.TP
\fIyyyy\fR - the year as four digit number (0000-9999)
.PP
These expressions may be used for the time:
.TP
\fIh\fR - the hour without a leading zero (0-23 or 1-12 if AM/PM display)
.TP
\fIhh\fR - the hour with a leading zero (00-23 or 01-12 if AM/PM display)
.TP
\fIm\fR - the minute without a leading zero (0-59)
.TP
\fImm\fR - the minute with a leading zero (00-59)

.PP
All other input characters will be ignored.
.PP
Example format Strings (assumed that the QDateTime is 21. May 2001 14:13:09)

.PP
See also QDate::toString() and QTime::toString().
.SH "QString QDateTime::toString ( Qt::DateFormat f = Qt::TextDate ) const"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Returns the datetime as a string. The \fIf\fR parameter determines the format of the string.
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::TextDate, the string format is "Wed May 20 03:40:13 1998" (using QDate::shortDayName(), QDate::shortMonthName(), and QTime::toString() to generate the string).
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::ISODate, the string format corresponds to the ISO 8601 specification for representations of dates and times, which is YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::LocalDate, the string format depends on the locale settings of the system.
.PP
If the format \fIf\fR is invalid, toString() returns a null string.
.PP
See also QDate::toString() and QTime::toString().
.PP
.SH RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QDataStream & operator<< ( QDataStream & s, const QDateTime & dt )"
