Function

GLib-2.0 ▶ GLib ▶ time_val_from_iso8601Deprecated 2.62Since 2.12

  • Converts a string containing an ISO 8601 encoded date and time to a GLib.TimeVal and puts it into time_.

    iso_date must include year, month, day, hours, minutes, and seconds. It can optionally include fractions of a second and a time zone indicator. (In the absence of any time zone indication, the timestamp is assumed to be in local time.)

    Any leading or trailing space in iso_date is ignored.

    This function was deprecated, along with GLib.TimeVal itself, in GLib 2.62. Equivalent functionality is available using code like:

    GDateTime *dt = g_date_time_new_from_iso8601 (iso8601_string, NULL);
    gint64 time_val = g_date_time_to_unix (dt);
    g_date_time_unref (dt);

    Parameters

    • Deprecatediso_date: string

      an ISO 8601 encoded date string

    Returns [boolean, TimeVal]

    true if the conversion was successful.

    2.12

    since 2.62: GLib.TimeVal is not year-2038-safe. Use g_date_time_new_from_iso8601() instead.
