time_base Class

The class serves as a base class for facets of class template time_get, defining just the enumerated type dateorder and several constants of this type.

Syntax

class time_base : public locale::facet {
public:
    enum dateorder {
        no_order,
        dmy,
        mdy,
        ymd,
        ydm
    };
    time_base(size_t _Refs = 0)
    ~time_base();
};

Remarks

Each constant characterizes a different way to order the components of a date. The constants are:

  • no_order specifies no particular order.

  • dmy specifies the order day, month, then year, as in 2 December 1979.

  • mdy specifies the order month, day, then year, as in December 2, 1979.

  • ymd specifies the order year, month, then day, as in 1979/12/2.

  • ydm specifies the order year, day, then month, as in 1979: 2 Dec.
