iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate Class Reference

PdfDate is the PDF date object. PDF defines a standard date format. The PDF date format closely follows the format defined by the international standard ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One, defined in CCITT X.208 or ISO/IEC 8824). A date is a PdfString of the form: (D:YYYYMMDDHHmmSSOHH'mm') See also ISO-320001 7.9.4, "Dates". More...

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PdfDate() [1/2]

iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.PdfDate ( DateTime  d )

inline

Constructs a PdfDate -object.

Parameters

d	the date that has to be turned into a PdfDate >-object

PdfDate() [2/2]

iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.PdfDate ( )

inline

Constructs a PdfDate -object, representing the current day and time.

Member Function Documentation

Decode()

static DateTime iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.Decode ( String  s )

inlinestatic

Converts a PDF string representing a date into a DateTime

Parameters

s	the PDF string representing a date

Returns

a DateTime representing the date

GetW3CDate() [1/2]

virtual String iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.GetW3CDate ( )

inlinevirtual

Gives the W3C format of the PdfDate.

Returns

a formatted date

GetW3CDate() [2/2]

static String iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.GetW3CDate ( String  d )

inlinestatic

Gives the W3C format of the PdfDate

Parameters

d	the date in the format D:YYYYMMDDHHmmSSOHH'mm'

Returns

a formatted date

IsWrappedObjectMustBeIndirect()

override bool iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDate.IsWrappedObjectMustBeIndirect ( )

inlinepackagevirtual

Defines if the object behind this wrapper must be an indirect object in the resultant document.

Defines if the object behind this wrapper must be an indirect object in the resultant document.

If this method returns true it doesn't necessarily mean that object must be in the indirect state at any moment, but rather defines that when the object will be written to the document it will be transformed into indirect object if it's not indirect yet.

Return value of this method shouldn't depend on any logic, it should return always true or false.

Returns

true if in the resultant document the object behind the wrapper must be indirect, otherwise false.

Implements iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfObjectWrapper< PdfString >.
