--  This package augments standard Ada.Text_IO with facilities for input

package GNAT.Calendar.Time_IO is

   Picture_Error : exception;
   --  Exception raised for incorrect picture

   type Picture_String is new String;
   --  This is a string to describe date and time output format. The string is
   --  a set of standard character and special tag that are replaced by the

   --          %I   hour (01..12)
   --          %k   hour ( 0..23)

   --          By default,  date pads numeric fields with zeroes.  GNU date
   --          recognizes the following nonstandard numeric modifiers:
   --
   --          -    (hyphen) do not pad the field
   --          _    (underscore) pad the field with spaces
   --
   --  Here are some GNAT extensions to the GNU Date specification:
   --
   --          %i   milliseconds (3 digits)
   --          %e   microseconds (6 digits)
   --          %o   nanoseconds  (9 digits)

   ISO_Date : constant Picture_String;
   --  This format follow the ISO 8601 standard. The format is "YYYY-MM-DD",
   --  four digits year, month and day number separated by minus.

   US_Date : constant Picture_String;
   --  This format is the common US date format: "MM/DD/YY",
   --  month and day number, two digits year separated by slashes.

   European_Date : constant Picture_String;
   --  This format is the common European date format: "DD/MM/YY",
   --  day and month number, two digits year separated by slashes.

   function Image
     (Date    : Ada.Calendar.Time;
      Picture : Picture_String) return String;
   --  Return Date, as interpreted in the current local time zone, as a string
   --  with format Picture. Raise Picture_Error if picture string is null or
   --  has an incorrect format.

   function Value (Date : String) return Ada.Calendar.Time;
   --  Parse the string Date, interpreted as a time representation in the
   --  current local time zone, and return the corresponding Time value. The
   --  following time format is supported:
   --
   --     hh:mm:ss             - Date is the current date
   --
   --  The following formats are also supported. They all accept an optional
   --  time with the format "hh:mm:ss". The time is separated from the date by
   --  exactly one space character.
   --
   --  When the time is not specified, it is set to 00:00:00. The delimiter '*'
   --  must be either '-' and '/' and both occurrences must use the same
   --  character.
   --
   --  Trailing characters (in particular spaces) are not allowed
   --
   --     yyyy*mm*dd           - ISO format
   --     yy*mm*dd             - Year is assumed to be 20yy
   --     mm*dd*yyyy           - (US date format)
   --     dd*mmm*yyyy          - month spelled out
   --     yyyy*mmm*dd          - month spelled out
   --     yyyymmdd             - Iso format, no separator
   --     mmm dd, yyyy         - month spelled out
   --     dd mmm yyyy          - month spelled out
   --
   --  The following ISO-8861 format expressed as a regular expression is also
   --  supported:
   --
   --    (yyyymmdd | yyyy'-'mm'-'dd)'T'(hhmmss | hh':'mm':'ss)
   --      [ ('Z' | ('.' | ',') s{s} | ('+'|'-')hh':'mm) ]
