Description

Formatting of date_generators follows specific orders for the various types of date_generators.

  • partial_date => "dd Month"

  • nth_day_of_the_week_in_month => "nth weekday of month"

  • first_day_of_the_week_in_month => "first weekday of month"

  • last_day_of_the_week_in_month => "last weekday of month"

  • first_day_of_the_week_after => "weekday after"

  • first_day_of_the_week_before => "weekday before" While the order of the elements in these phrases cannot be changed, the elements themselves can be. Weekday and Month get their formats and names from the date_facet. The remaining elements are stored in the date_generator_formatter and can be customized upon construction or via a member function. The default elements are those shown in the examples above.

date_generator_formatter construct/copy/destruct

  1. date_generator_formatter();
  2. date_generator_formatter(const string_type & first, 
                         const string_type & second, 
                         const string_type & third, 
                         const string_type & fourth, 
                         const string_type & fifth, const string_type & last, 
                         const string_type & before, 
                         const string_type & after, const string_type & of);

date_generator_formatter public member functions

  1. void elements(const collection_type & new_strings, 
              phrase_elements beg_pos = first) ;

    The order of the strings in the given collection is important. They must follow:

    • first, second, third, fourth, fifth, last, before, after, of.

    It is not necessary to send in a complete set if only a few elements are to be replaced as long as the correct beg_pos is used.

    Ex: To keep the default first through fifth elements, but replace the rest with a collection of:

    • "final", "prior", "following", "in". The beg_pos of date_generator_formatter::last would be used. 

  2. template<typename facet_type> 
  OutItrT put_partial_date(OutItrT next, std::ios_base & a_ios, CharT a_fill, 
                           const partial_date_type & pd, 
                           const facet_type & facet) const;
  3. template<typename facet_type> 
  OutItrT put_nth_kday(OutItrT next, std::ios_base & a_ios, CharT a_fill, 
                       const nth_kday_type & nkd, const facet_type & facet) const;
  4. template<typename facet_type> 
  OutItrT put_first_kday(OutItrT next, std::ios_base & a_ios, CharT a_fill, 
                         const first_kday_type & fkd, 
                         const facet_type & facet) const;
  5. template<typename facet_type> 
  OutItrT put_last_kday(OutItrT next, std::ios_base & a_ios, CharT a_fill, 
                        const last_kday_type & lkd, const facet_type & facet) const;
  6. template<typename facet_type>

  7. template<typename facet_type>
