Time

Represents a point in time.

Remarks: Time represents dates and times between 12:00:00 midnight on January 1, 10000 BC and 11:59:59 PM on December 31, 9999 AD.

Time values are measured in 100-nanosecond intervals, or ticks. A date value is the number of ticks that have elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight on January 1, 0001 AD in the Gregorian calendar.

Negative Time values are offsets from that same reference point, but backwards in history. Time values are not specific to any calendar, but for an example, the beginning of December 31, 1 BC in the Gregorian calendar is Time.epoch - TimeSpan.days(1).

Functions

opBinary Time opBinary(const(TimeSpan) t): Adds the specified time span to the time, returning a new time.
opBinary Time opBinary(const(TimeSpan) t): Subtracts the specified time span from the time, returning a new time.
opBinary TimeSpan opBinary(const(Time) t): Returns a time span which represents the difference in time between this and the given Time.
opCmp int opCmp(Time t): Compares two Time values.
opCmp int opCmp(Time t): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
opEquals bool opEquals(const(Time) t): Determines whether two Time values are equal.
opOpAssign Time opOpAssign(const(TimeSpan) t): Adds the specified time span to the time, assigning the result to this instance.
opOpAssign Time opOpAssign(const(TimeSpan) t): Subtracts the specified time span from the time, assigning the result to this instance.

Properties

date Time date [@property getter]: Property. Retrieves the date component.
span TimeSpan span [@property getter]: Property. Retrieves the equivalent TimeSpan.
ticks long ticks [@property getter]: Property. Retrieves the number of ticks for this Time. This value can be used to construct another Time struct by writing:
time TimeOfDay time [@property getter]: Property. Retrieves the time of day.
unix TimeSpan unix [@property getter]: Property. Retrieves a TimeSpan that corresponds to Unix time (time since 1/1/1970). Use the TimeSpan accessors to get the time in seconds, milliseconds, etc.

Variables

epoch enum Time epoch;: Represents the epoch (1/1/0001)
epoch1601 enum Time epoch1601;: Represents the epoch of 1/1/1601 (Commonly used in Windows systems)
epoch1970 enum Time epoch1970;: Represents the epoch of 1/1/1970 (Commonly used in Unix systems)
max enum Time max;: Represents the smallest and largest Time value.
min enum Time min;: Represents the smallest and largest Time value.
