## Detailed Description

This module provides various calendar, timezone and date time services

## Function Documentation

date_time_period_set boost::locale::operator+ | ( | date_time_period_set const & | a,
|  | date_time_period_set const & | b
| ) |  | `[inline]`

Append two periods sets. Note this operator is not commutative

date_time_period_set boost::locale::operator- | ( | date_time_period_set const & | a,
|  | date_time_period_set const & | b
| ) |  | `[inline]`

Append two period sets when all periods of set change their sign

date_time_duration boost::locale::operator- | ( | date_time const & | later,
|  | date_time const & | earlier
| ) |  | `[inline]`

Calculates the difference between two dates, the left operand is a later point on time line. Returns date_time_duration object.

template<typename CharType >

std::basic_ostream<CharType>& boost::locale::operator<< | ( | std::basic_ostream< CharType > & | out,
|  | date_time const & | t
| ) |  |

Writes date_time t to output stream out.

This function uses locale, calendar and time zone of the target stream in.

For example:

      date_time now(time(0),hebrew_calendar)
      cout << "Year: " << period::year(now) <<" Full Date:"<< now;

The output may be Year:5770 Full Date:Jan 1, 2010

template<typename CharType >

std::basic_istream<CharType>& boost::locale::operator>> | ( | std::basic_istream< CharType > & | in,
|  | date_time & | t
| ) |  |

Reads date_time t from output stream in

This function uses locale, calendar and time zone of the source stream in.
