.SH DESCRIPTION
The QDate class provides date functions.
.PP
A QDate object contains a calendar date, i.e. year, month, and day numbers in the modern western (Gregorian) calendar. It can read the current date from the system clock. It provides functions for comparing dates and for manipulating dates, e.g. by adding a number of days or months or years.
.PP
A QDate object is typically created either by giving the year, month and day numbers explicitly, or by using the static function currentDate(), which makes a QDate object which contains the system clock's date. An explicit date can also be set using setYMD(). 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 year(), month(), and day() functions provide access to the year, month, and day numbers. Also, dayOfWeek() and dayOfYear() functions are provided. The same information is provided in textual format by the toString(), shortDayName(), longDayName(), shortMonthName() and longMonthName() functions.
.PP
QDate provides a full set of operators to compare two QDate objects where smaller means earlier and larger means later.
.PP
You can increment (or decrement) a date by a given number of days using addDays(). Similarly you can use addMonths() and addYears(). The daysTo() function returns the number of days between two dates.
.PP
The daysInMonth() and daysInYear() functions return how many days there are in this date's month and year, respectively. The leapYear() function indicates whether this date is in a leap year.
.PP
Note that QDate should not be used for date calculations for dates prior to the introduction of the Gregorian calendar. This calendar was adopted by England from 14<sup><small>th</small></sup> September 1752 (hence this is the earliest valid QDate), and subsequently by most other western countries, until 1923.
.PP
The end of time is reached around 8000, by which time we expect Qt to be obsolete.
.PP
See also QTime, QDateTime, QDateEdit, QDateTimeEdit and Time and Date.
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QDate::QDate ()"
Constructs a null date. Null dates are invalid.
.PP
See also isNull() and isValid().
.SH "QDate::QDate ( int y, int m, int d )"
Constructs a date with year \fIy\fR, month \fIm\fR and day \fId\fR.
.PP
\fIy\fR must be in the range 1752..8000, \fIm\fR must be in the range 1..12, and \fId\fR must be in the range 1..31. Exception: if \fIy\fR is in the range 0..99, it is interpreted as 1900..1999.
.PP
See also isValid().
.SH "QDate QDate::addDays ( int ndays ) const"
Returns a QDate object containing a date \fIndays\fR later than the date of this object (or earlier if \fIndays\fR is negative).
.PP
See also daysTo().
.SH "QDate QDate::addMonths ( int nmonths ) const"
Returns a QDate object containing a date \fInmonths\fR later than the date of this object (or earlier if \fInmonths\fR is negative).
.SH "QDate QDate::addYears ( int nyears ) const"
Returns a QDate object containing a date \fInyears\fR later than the date of this object (or earlier if \fInyears\fR is negative).
.SH "QDate QDate::currentDate ()\fC [static]\fR"
Returns the current date, as reported by the system clock.
.PP
See also QTime::currentTime() and QDateTime::currentDateTime().
.PP
Example: dclock/dclock.cpp.
.SH "int QDate::day () const"
Returns the day of the month (1..31) of this date.
.PP
See also year(), month() and dayOfWeek().
.PP
Example: dclock/dclock.cpp.
.SH "QString QDate::dayName ( int weekday )\fC [static]\fR"
\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
.PP
Use shortDayName() instead.
.SH "int QDate::dayOfWeek () const"
Returns the weekday (Monday=1..Sunday=7) for this date.
.PP
See also day() and dayOfYear().
.SH "int QDate::dayOfYear () const"
Returns the day of the year (1..365) for this date.
.PP
See also day() and dayOfWeek().
.SH "int QDate::daysInMonth () const"
Returns the number of days in the month (28..31) for this date.
.PP
See also day() and daysInYear().
.SH "int QDate::daysInYear () const"
Returns the number of days in the year (365 or 366) for this date.
.PP
See also day() and daysInMonth().
.SH "int QDate::daysTo ( const QDate & d ) const"
Returns the number of days from this date to \fId\fR (which is negative if \fId\fR is earlier than this date).
.PP
Example:
.PP
.nf
.br
    QDate d1( 1995, 5, 17 );  // May 17th 1995
.br
    QDate d2( 1995, 5, 20 );  // May 20th 1995
.br
    d1.daysTo( d2 );          // returns 3
.br
    d2.daysTo( d1 );          // returns -3
.br
.fi
.PP
See also addDays().
.SH "QDate QDate::fromString ( const QString & s, Qt::DateFormat f = Qt::TextDate )\fC [static]\fR"
Returns the QDate represented by the string \fIs\fR, using the format \fIf\fR, or an invalid date if this is not possible.
.PP
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 QDate::isNull () const"
Returns TRUE if the date is null; otherwise returns FALSE. A null date is invalid.
.PP
See also isValid().
.SH "bool QDate::isValid () const"

.PP
See also isNull().
.SH "bool QDate::isValid ( int y, int m, int d )\fC [static]\fR"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Returns TRUE if the specified date (year \fIy\fR, month \fIm\fR and day \fId\fR) is valid.
.PP
Example:
.PP
.nf
.br
    QDate::isValid( 2002, 5, 17 );  // TRUE   May 17th 2002 is valid
.br
    QDate::isValid( 2002, 2, 30 );  // FALSE  Feb 30th does not exist
.br
    QDate::isValid( 2004, 2, 29 );  // TRUE   2004 is a leap year
.br
    QDate::isValid( 1202, 6, 6 );   // FALSE  1202 is pre-Gregorian
.br
.fi
.PP
Note that a \fIy\fR value in the range 00..99 is interpreted as 1900..1999.
.PP
See also isNull() and setYMD().

.PP
See also QDate::toString() and QTime::toString().
.SH "QString QDate::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 date as a string. The \fIf\fR parameter determines the format of the string.
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::TextDate, the string format is "Sat May 20 1995" (using the shortDayName() and shortMonthName() functions to generate the string).
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::ISODate, the string format corresponds to the ISO 8601 specification for representations of dates, which is YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY is the year, MM is the month of the year (between 01 and 12), and DD is the day of the month between 01 and 31.
.PP
If \fIf\fR is Qt::LocalDate, the string format depends on the locale settings of the system.
.PP
See also shortDayName() and shortMonthName().
.SH "int QDate::year () const"
Returns the year (1752..8000) of this date.
.PP
See also month() and day().
.SH RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QDataStream & operator<< ( QDataStream & s, const QDate & d )"

.PP
See also Format of the QDataStream operators.
.SH "QDataStream & operator>> ( QDataStream & s, QDate & d )"
Reads a date from the stream \fIs\fR into \fId\fR.
