Structure.getDate
bool getDate(string fieldname, out glib.date.Date value)Sets the date pointed to by value corresponding to the date of the given field. Caller is responsible for making sure the field exists and has the correct type.
On success value will point to a newly-allocated copy of the date which should be freed with [glib.date.Date.free] when no longer needed (note: this is inconsistent with e.g. [gst.structure.Structure.getString] which doesn't return a copy of the string).
Parameters
fieldname | the name of a field |
value | a pointer to a #GDate to set |
Returns
true if the value could be set correctly. If there was no field
