dateTimeNewFromHttpString

fnglib.date_time.DateTime dateTimeNewFromHttpString(string dateString)

Parses date_string and tries to extract a date from it.

This recognizes all of the "HTTP-date" formats from RFC 2616, RFC 2822 dates, and reasonable approximations thereof. (Eg, it is lenient about whitespace, leading "0"s, etc.)

Parameters

dateStringThe date as a string

Returns

a new #GDateTime, or null if date_string

could not be parsed.
