XMLRPC::DateTime

This class is important to handle XMLRPC dateTime.iso8601 values, correcly, because normal UNIX-dates, ie: Date, only handle dates from year 1970 on, and ruby's native Time class handles dates without the time component.

XMLRPC::DateTime is able to store a XMLRPC dateTime.iso8601 value correctly.

end
            
to_a() click to toggle source

Returns all date/time components in an array.

Returns +[year, month, day, hour, min, sec]+.

 
               # File xmlrpc/datetime.rb, line 111
