QDate

This package can be used to manipulate dates in several formats.

There are base classes that take care of generic date formatting functions and options.

A base container sub-class provides functions to set and get each element of a date like the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, etc.

There are also two sub-classes to change the default date format to the German format or ISO.

The classes provide a fluent interface so several concatenated operations may be called within single statement.

Easily to enhance by defining a new Q{LANGUAGE}Date class, where you only have to define the locale (like QGermanDate)=>

class QNetherlandDate extends QDateContainer {
const lang = 'nl_NL';
const locale = 'nld_nld';

...
}

Now the Class creates month and day names for the Netherlands.


class QFormat holds country specific date format rules.

$f = new QFormat;
$f->set({your-array-with-formats})

Look at the class format for getting the array structure.
