1) Public member function, calls the protected virtual member function
do_get_date() of the most derived class. 2) Reads successive characters from the sequence
[beg, end) and parses out the calendar date value using the default format expected by this locale, which is the same format as "%x" | (until C++11) |
"%d/%m/%y", "%m/%d/%y", "%y/%m/%d", and "%y/%d/%m", depending on date_order() | (since C++11) |
as used by the functions
std::get_time(), get(), and the POSIX function strptime() The parsed date is stored in the corresponding fields of the
std::tm structure pointed to by the argument t. If the end iterator is reached before a valid date is read, the function sets
std::ios_base::eofbit in err. If a parsing error is encountered, the function sets std::ios_base::failbit in err.Parameters
| beg | - | iterator designating the start of the sequence to parse |
| end | - | one past the end iterator for the sequence to parse |
| str | - | a stream object that this function uses to obtain locale facets when needed, e.g. std::ctype to skip whitespace or std::collate to compare strings |
| err | - | stream error flags object that is modified by this function to indicate errors |
| t | - | pointer to the std::tm object that will hold the result of this function call |
Return value
Iterator pointing one past the last character in [beg, end) that was recognized as a part of a valid date.
Notes
For the alphabetic components of the default date format (if any), this function is usually case-insensitive.
If a parsing error is encountered, most implementations of this function leave *t unmodified.
The implementation may support other date formats besides the ones required by the standard.
Example
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <sstream>
#include <iterator>
#include <ctime>
void try_get_date(const std::string& s)
{
std::cout << "Parsing the date out of '" << s <<
"' in the locale " << std::locale().name() << '\n';
std::istringstream str(s);
std::ios_base::iostate err = std::ios_base::goodbit;
std::tm t;
std::istreambuf_iterator<char> ret =
std::use_facet<std::time_get<char>>(str.getloc()).get_date(
std::istreambuf_iterator<char>(str),
std::istreambuf_iterator<char>(),
str, err, &t
);
str.setstate(err);
if(str) {
std::cout << "Day: " << t.tm_mday << ' '
<< "Month: " << t.tm_mon + 1 << ' '
<< "Year: " << t.tm_year + 1900 << '\n';
} else {
std::cout << "Parse failed. Unparsed string: ";
std::copy(ret, std::istreambuf_iterator<char>(),
std::ostreambuf_iterator<char>(std::cout));
std::cout << '\n';

int main()
{
std::locale::global(std::locale("en_US.utf8"));

try_get_date("02-01-2013");
std::locale::global(std::locale("ja_JP.utf8"));
try_get_date("2013年02月01日");
}Output:
Parsing the date out of '02/01/2013' in the locale en_US.utf8 Day: 1 Month: 2 Year: 2013 Parsing the date out of '02-01-2013' in the locale en_US.utf8 Parse failed. Unparsed string: -01-2013 Parsing the date out of '2013年02月01日' in the locale ja_JP.utf8 Day: 1 Month: 2 Year: 2013
