DateTime

DateTimeSubsecs.pngMMF returns the extracted value in a format that is based on the XML specification for Date and Time Format.

FileMind shows this value with its PanelWidget DateTime, in the format specified in the Windows settings.

An RSE DateTime RSE value can be any of the following:

Date

  • Year –YYYY (i.e., "1997")
  • with month – YYYY-MM (i.e., "1997-07")
  • with month and day – YYYY-MM-DD (i.e., "1997-07-16")

Time

  • Hours, minutes – hh:mm (i.e., "19:20")
  • with seconds – hh:mm:ss (i.e., "19:20:23")
  • with subseconds – hh:mm:ss.s (i.e., "19:20:23.122")
  • with timezone – hh:mmTZD, hh:mm:ssTZD or hh:mm:ss.sTZD (i.e., " 19:20-4:00" or "15:20:23.124Z")

Date and Time

Combines both date and time value, separated with a "T" (i.e., "1997-07-16T19:20" or "1997-07-16T19:20:23.124-4:00"). The date must be complete (year, month, day) when it is combined with time.

Custom Property "RSE.DateTimeFormat"

An RSE with the data type DateTime may have the Custom Property DateTimeFormat, which determines the allowed scope of the item. Valid strings for this property are:

YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.s
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmTZD
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sTZD
hh:mm
hh:mm:ss
hh:mm:ss.s
hh:mmTZD
hh:mm:ssTZD
hh:mm:ss.sTZD

The value for the time zone designator TZD can either be the letter "Z" or an offset value (i.e. "-5:00"). The sub-second value is not further specified, it may have a precision of up to nine digits. If no mask is set, then  YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD (no sub-seconds) is assumed.

The value to be displayed in the user interface can be filtered with a similar Custom Property called RSE.UI_DateTimeFormat (see PanelWidget DateTime for details).
