maxon.LocalDateTime¶
Description¶
At some point developers have to deal with times, dates and timezones.
This topic can promote headaches because it can be quite complex.
In general you have to be aware of differences in timezones, especially when your software runs on mobile devices
are you let the user share data across countries (or even within the same country).
The implementation and definition of the classes rely on the ISO 8601.
Use the
maxon.UniversalDateTime whenever possible to store normalized time and date values and convert
them to a maxon.LocalDateTime instance as late as possible (e.g. for a local string output).An object representing a local ‘time and date’ of the current system time.
All members are public and are allowed to be modified for custom needs.
Keep in mind that you have to ensure that the values are correct and valid when converting an object back to
maxon.UniversalDateTime, otherwise the behavior is undefined.See also
