I have a GMT date in the following format: "20090103 12:00" I'd like to parse it into a date object I can work with and then convert the GMT time/date into my current time zone which is currently Eastern Standard Time. So I'd li...

The Problem is when I am retrieving the DataSet using WebService from Remote Server. The Dates Column is showing The Previous Date. For e.g Date Column is having "14 Jan 2007" but when retrieved ...
I have some code that uses the Oracle function add_months to increment a Date by X number of months. I now need to re-implement the same logic in a C / C++ function. For reasons I don't want/need to go into I can't simply issue a query to oracle to get the new date. Does anyone know of a simple and reliable way of adding X number of m...
I have dates in the format 2008-12-23T00:00:00Z. This look a lot like a ISO 8601 format with a Zulu (UTC) timezone. I though the following code would parse it (using commons-lang) : String pattern = DateFormatUtils.ISO_DATETIME_TIME_ZONE_FORMAT.getPattern(); Date d = DateUtils.parseDate(dateToParse, new String[] { pattern }); If I tak...

I am getting date in the format as yyyy-mm-dd. I need to increment this by one day. How can I do this? ...
My server is in Dallas. I'm in New York City.. and both PHP and MySQL have configuration variables for setting the timezone. How do I get them all to work together? What dates should I store in MySQL? How do I get PHP to handle changing the date based on the user's preference? Bear in mind: I don't think I'm ever having PHP explici...
Are there any classes/functions written in php publicly available that will take a timestamp, and return the time passed since then in number of days, months, years etc? Basically i want the same function that generates the time-since-posted presented together with each entry on this site (and on digg and loads of other sites). ...
I noticed today (after ~8 years of happily hacking away at bash) that there is no trivial way to 'delete by date' using ´rm'. The solution is therefore to pipe stuff around a combination of commands like rm, ls, find, awk and sed. Say for example I wanted to delete every file in the working directory from 2009, what would be a typical s...
I am storing the response to various rpc calls in a mysql table with the following fields: Table: rpc_responses timestamp (date) method (varchar) id (varchar) response (mediumtext) PRIMARY KEY(timestamp,method,id) What is the best method of selecting the most recent responses for all existing combinations of metho...
I'm just trying to get MySQL to store time in GMT... I've read the documentation here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/time-zone-support.html It says to set: default-time-zone='timezone' in an option file. However, I've googled for several different terms and cannot find possible values "timezone" is supposed to be. I also do...
I have a python datetime.datetime object. What is the best way to subtract one day? ...
T-SQL: 1(ANSI): convert(varchar(10),@DueDate, 102) < convert(varchar(10),getdate(), 102) 2(USA): convert(varchar(10),@DueDate, 101) < convert(varchar(10),getdate(), 101) Notice that these will return different results when year is considered. Why? What's the difference? Why isn't the operator taking year into consideration whe...
I am curious what would be the best way to handle an ambiguous date string in any given language. When pre-validating your user input isn't an option, how should MM/dd/YYYY dates be parsed? How would you parse the following ambiguous date and for what reason (statistical, cultural, etc)? '1111900' as Jan 11, 1900 [M/dd/YYYY] or Nov 1,...
Hi, I find it funny that Java (or the java.util library) does not have a built-in function to calculate difference in dates. What is the best way to do this? I know the simple way is to take the difference of the time in milliseconds and then convert that into days. However, i wanted to know if this works in all cases (with daylight sav...
