Dodatko Alexander November 2012
None
How many months does the year consist of?
What is the first day of the year?
What day does a new week start on?
Right, but did you know that ...
Jewish calendar consists of 13 months. And month #6 is
a leaping one.
In Japan the calendar may return to year #1 at
the day of the emperor's death
In Russia week starts on Monday. In the USA the
first day is Sunday
None
Dates must look in the way the user expects
None
None
-(NSDate*)parseDate:( NSString* )date_ { NSDateFormatter* df_ = [ NSDateFormatter new
]; df_.dateFormat = @"yyyy-MM-dd"; return [ df_ dateFromString: date_ ]; } The Typical Solution
-(NSDate*)parseDate:( NSString* )date_ { NSDateFormatter* df_ = [ NSDateFormatter new
]; df_.dateFormat = @"yyyy-MM-dd"; return [ df_ dateFromString: date_ ]; } WRONG !
None
Use en_US_POSIX locale for dates from the network Use Gregorian
calendar too
None
Do not forget to set the same Locale for both
NSCalendar and NSDateFormatter
Or let my library do it for you dodikk /
ESLocale
Ok. How about SQLite?
None
SELECT SUM( Visits) FROM VisitsLog WHERE Date BETWEEN x AND
y GROUP BY week
What should I take as week ?
SELECT SUM( Visits) FROM VisitsLog WHERE Date BETWEEN x AND
y GROUP BY Strftime('%Y-%W', Date )
SELECT SUM( Visits) FROM VisitsLog WHERE Date BETWEEN x AND
y GROUP BY Strftime('%Y-%W', Date )
None
SELECT SUM( Visits) FROM VisitsLog WHERE Date BETWEEN x AND
y GROUP BY ObjcFormatDate('YYYY-ww', Date, 'en_US_POSIX' )
None
int sqlite3_create_function( dbHandle, "ObjcFormatDate", 3, //int nArg, SQLITE_UTF8, NULL, //
sqlite user data functionPointer, NULL, NULL // for aggregates );
Plan of attack Convert C strings to NSString Convert date
string to NSDate Format NSDate using locale
SQLite uses ANSI format yyyy-MM-dd
Demo
One More Thing
None
1000 times slower than strftime 10K records Creating NSDateFormatter on-the-fly
None
Same speed as strftime Same 10K records Singletone NSDateFormatter
Thread Safety
