mkDate

Creates a date, based on three integers that indicate the day, month, and year, respectively. "Shorthand" values for the year argument, for example, "y", are not supported.

date mkDate(int day, int month, int year)

day An integer that represents the day of the month.
month An integer that represents the month of the year.
year An integer that represents the year, which must be between 1900 and 2154.

systemDateGet

Retrieves the session date, if it has been set.

date systemDateGet()

Return value

The session date if it has been set; otherwise, the system date.

Remarks

Consider using Session date and time on the Tools menu to open the Session date and time page. This page can be used to actively set the session date. After this set action is detected by the system, subsequent calls to the systemDateGet function return the session date. The today function returns the system date. This function doesn't support time zones.

Example

The following example shows the date in the Infolog window.

static void Job_systemDateGet(Args _arg)
{
    info( date2Str(
        systemDateGet(),        // X++ language function.
        321,                    // 321 = ymd
        DateDay::Digits2,
        DateSeparator::Hyphen,  // separator1
        DateMonth::Digits2,
        DateSeparator::Hyphen,  // separator2
        DateYear::Digits4
    )
);
/*********** Actual Infolog output
Message (03:46:00 pm)
2012-04-16
***********/
}

systemDateSet

Changes the system date.

date systemDateSet(date _date)

Parameters

Parameter Description
_date The new date for the system.

Return value

The new system date.

Remarks

This function doesn't affect the session date. This method changes the date, but the time will be set to 0 (zero).

Example

The following example sets the system date to today's date.

static void systemDateSetExample(Args _arg)
{
    date d = today();
    d = systemDateSet(d);
    print d;
}

timeNow

Retrieves the current system time.

int timeNow()

Return value

The number of seconds that have passed since midnight.

Example

static void timeNowExample(Args _arg)
{
    int i;
    ;
    i = timeNow();
    print "The number of seconds since midnight is " + int2Str(i);
    pause;
}

today

Retrieves the current date on the system.

date today()

Return value

The current date.

Example

static void todayExample(Args _arg)
{
    date d;
    ;
    d = today();
    print "Today's date is " + date2Str(d, 0, 2, -1, 2, -1, 4);
    pause;
}

wkOfYr

Calculates the week of the year that a date falls in, according to the ISO 8601 specification.

int wkOfYr(date _date)

Parameters

Parameter Description
_date The date to calculate the week of the year for.

Return value

The sequence number of the week that the _date parameter occurs in.

Example

The following code example compares the wkOfYr function with the Global::weekOfYear method. The function and the method produce different results.

// X++ job, under AOT > Jobs.
static void WeekTests3Job(Args _args)
{
int weekNum, i;
date dateTest;
str sMessages[];
//---------------------------------------------
sMessages[1] = "----- #1.  For Sunday, January 5, 2003 -----";
dateTest = 512003; // DayMonthYear  format.
weekNum = wkOfYr(dateTest);
sMessages[2] = int2str(weekNum) + " = wkOfYr funtion";
weekNum = Global::weekOfYear(dateTest);
sMessages[3] = int2str(weekNum) + " = Global::weekOfYear method";
//---------------------------------------------
sMessages[4] = " ";
sMessages[5] = "----- #2.  For Wednesday, August 20, 2003 -----";
dateTest = 2082003;
weekNum = wkOfYr(dateTest);
sMessages[6] = int2str(weekNum) + " = wkOfYr funtion";
weekNum = Global::weekOfYear(dateTest);
sMessages[7] = int2str(weekNum) + " = Global::weekOfYear method";
//---------------------------------------------
sMessages[8] = " ";
sMessages[9] = "----- #3.  For Sunday, December 28, 2003 -----";
dateTest = 28122003;
weekNum = wkOfYr(dateTest);
sMessages[10] = int2str(weekNum) + " = wkOfYr funtion";
weekNum = Global::weekOfYear(dateTest);
sMessages[11] = int2str(weekNum) + " = Global::weekOfYear method";
for (i=1; i<= 11; i++)
{
Global::info(sMessages[i]);
}
}

The previous example sent the following information to the Infolog for display. The output shows that there are differences between wkOfYr and Global::weekOfYear.

Message (01:59:13 pm) ----- 
#1. For Sunday, January 5, 2003 ----- 1 = wkOfYr function 2 = Global::weekOfYear method ----- 
#2. For Wednesday, August 20, 2003 ----- 34 = wkOfYr function 34 = Global::weekOfYear method ----- 
#3. For Sunday, December 28, 2003 ----- 52 = wkOfYr function 1 = Global::weekOfYear method

Parameters

Parameter Description
