* \brief C API: DateFormat
*
* <h2> Date Format C API</h2>
*
* Date Format C API consists of functions that convert dates and
* times from their internal representations to textual form and back again in a
* language-independent manner. Converting from the internal representation (milliseconds
* since midnight, January 1, 1970) to text is known as "formatting," and converting
* from text to millis is known as "parsing." We currently define only one concrete
* structure UDateFormat, which can handle pretty much all normal
* date formatting and parsing actions.
* <P>
* Date Format helps you to format and parse dates for any locale. Your code can
* be completely independent of the locale conventions for months, days of the
* week, or even the calendar format: lunar vs. solar.
* <P>
* To format a date for the current Locale with default time and date style,
* use one of the static factory methods:
* <pre>
* \code
* UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* UChar *myString;
* int32_t myStrlen = 0;
* UDateFormat* dfmt = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, NULL, -1, NULL, -1, &status);
* myStrlen = udat_format(dfmt, myDate, NULL, myStrlen, NULL, &status);
* if (status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
* status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
* myString=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
* udat_format(dfmt, myDate, myString, myStrlen+1, NULL, &status);
* }
* \endcode
* </pre>
* If you are formatting multiple numbers, it is more efficient to get the
* format and use it multiple times so that the system doesn't have to fetch the
* information about the local language and country conventions multiple times.
* <pre>
* \code
* UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* int32_t i, myStrlen = 0;
* UChar* myString;
* char buffer[1024];
* UDate myDateArr[] = { 0.0, 100000000.0, 2000000000.0 }; // test values
* UDateFormat* df = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
* for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
* myStrlen = udat_format(df, myDateArr[i], NULL, myStrlen, NULL, &status);
* if(status == U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
* status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* myString = (UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
* udat_format(df, myDateArr[i], myString, myStrlen+1, NULL, &status);
* printf("%s\n", u_austrcpy(buffer, myString) );
* free(myString);
* }
* }
* \endcode
* </pre>
* To get specific fields of a date, you can use UFieldPosition to
* get specific fields.
* <pre>
* \code
* UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* UFieldPosition pos;
* UChar *myString;
* int32_t myStrlen = 0;
* char buffer[1024];
*
* pos.field = 1; // Same as the DateFormat::EField enum
* UDateFormat* dfmt = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
* myStrlen = udat_format(dfmt, myDate, NULL, myStrlen, &pos, &status);
* if (status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
* status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
* myString=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
* udat_format(dfmt, myDate, myString, myStrlen+1, &pos, &status);
* }
* printf("date format: %s\n", u_austrcpy(buffer, myString));
* buffer[pos.endIndex] = 0; // NULL terminate the string.
* printf("UFieldPosition position equals %s\n", &buffer[pos.beginIndex]);
* \endcode
* </pre>
* To format a date for a different Locale, specify it in the call to
* udat_open()
* <pre>
* \code
* UDateFormat* df = udat_open(UDAT_SHORT, UDAT_SHORT, "fr_FR", NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
* \endcode
* </pre>
* You can use a DateFormat API udat_parse() to parse.
* <pre>
* \code
* UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* int32_t parsepos=0;
* UDate myDate = udat_parse(df, myString, u_strlen(myString), &parsepos, &status);
* \endcode
* </pre>
* You can pass in different options for the arguments for date and time style
* to control the length of the result; from SHORT to MEDIUM to LONG to FULL.
* The exact result depends on the locale, but generally:
* see UDateFormatStyle for more details
* <ul type=round>
* <li> UDAT_SHORT is completely numeric, such as 12/13/52 or 3:30pm
* <li> UDAT_MEDIUM is longer, such as Jan 12, 1952
* <li> UDAT_LONG is longer, such as January 12, 1952 or 3:30:32pm
* <li> UDAT_FULL is pretty completely specified, such as
* Tuesday, April 12, 1952 AD or 3:30:42pm PST.
* </ul>
* You can also set the time zone on the format if you wish.
* <P>
* You can also use forms of the parse and format methods with Parse Position and
* UFieldPosition to allow you to
* <ul type=round>
* <li> Progressively parse through pieces of a string.
* <li> Align any particular field, or find out where it is for selection
* on the screen.
* </ul>
