LogicalToDate	LogicalToDisplay	LogicalToJSON	LogicalToOdbc
LogicalToXSD	OdbcToLogical	TimeStampToLogical	XSDToLogical

Parameters

• parameter JSONTYPE = "string";

• parameter STRICTDATA = 0;

1/0 flag which determines if the LogicalToFormat conversions will process imprecise logical FileMan Date values Default setting is STRICTDATA=0 Parameter affects the generation of the LogicalToDisplay and LogicalToOdbc methods When STRICTDATA=1, imprecise or invalid dates will not be changed to a valid FileMan Date value. For example, if Logical FileMan Date value is 31110, when STRICTDATA=0 this will translate to 3111001 (Sept 01, 2011). If STRICTDATA=1, this transformation will not take place and the invalid/imprecise Logical value will get an error when converted to Display or Odbc format.

• parameter XSDTYPE = "date";

Methods

• classmethod DateToLogical(%val As %Library.String) as %Library.FilemanDate

Converts %Date format DATE (+$H) to FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD).

• classmethod DisplayToLogical(Arg1 As %Library.String) as %Library.FilemanDate

Converts DISPLAY format DATE (DD/MM/YYYY) to FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD).

• classmethod IsValid(%val As %RawString) as %Status

Checks for Invalid format, expects FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD). Can handle data on disk in the Fileman TimeStamp format.

• classmethod JSONToLogical(%val As %String) as %FilemanDate

• classmethod LogicalToDate(%val As %Library.FilemanDate) as %Library.Date

Converts FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD) to %Date format DATE (+$H)

• classmethod LogicalToDisplay(Arg1 As %Library.FilemanDate) as %Library.String

Converts FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD) to DISPLAY format DATE (DD/MM/YYYY). Can handle data on disk in the Fileman TimeStamp format.

• classmethod LogicalToJSON(%val As %FilemanDate) as %String

Converts the logical %FilemanDate value to the JSON string value.

• classmethod LogicalToOdbc(Arg1 As %Library.FilemanDate) as %Library.String

Converts FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD) to ODBC format DATE (YYYY-MM-DD). Can handle data on disk in the Fileman TimeStamp format.

• classmethod LogicalToXSD(%val As %FilemanDate) as %String

Converts the %FilemanDate value to the canonical SOAP encoded value.

• classmethod OdbcToLogical(Arg1 As %Library.String) as %Library.FilemanDate

Converts ODBC format DATE (YYYY-MM-DD) to FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD).

• classmethod TimeStampToLogical(%val As %Library.TimeStamp) as %Library.FilemanDate

Converts %TimeStamp format TIMESTAMP (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) to FILEMAN format DATE (CYYMMDD).

• classmethod XSDToLogical(%val As %String) as %FilemanDate
