px_date2string
PX_DATE2STRING(3) Library Functions Manual PX_DATE2STRING(3)NAME
PX_date2string -- Convert paradox date into formated string
SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h>
char * PX_date2string(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, long date, const char *format)
DESCRIPTION
Creates a string representation of a paradox date as specified in the parameter format. The date must be either retrieved with
PX_get_data_long(3) after calling PX_get_record(3) or by simply using the long value in the pxval_t struct as returned by
PX_retrieve_record(3). The function uses internally the PX_timestamp2string(3) function. The format string may contain all chars as docu-
mented with PX_timestamp2string(3), though only those concerning the date will produce resonable results.
RETURN VALUE
Returns pointer to string on success and NULL on failure.
