SimpleDateTime

This class provides methods for performing operations on SimpleDateTime objects, such as instantiating objects, for example.

You can also use this class to perform date-time operations, such as calculations, formatting or converting between date-time formats.

addDaysLocalTime(days)

Adds a specified number of days to the current SimpleDateTime object. The negative value of the parameter will subtract the days.

The method determines local date and time equivalent to the value saved by the GlideDateTime object, then adds or subtracts the days using local date and time values.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

var simple_date_time = new SimpleDateTime("2019-01-01 08:00:00");
simple_date_time.addDaysLocalTime(-1)
ss.info(simple_date_time.getValue()); // 2018-12-31

addDaysUTC(days)

Adds a specified number of days to the current SimpleDateTime object. The negative value of the parameter will subtract the days.

The method determines UTC date and time equivalent to the value saved by the GlideDateTime object, then adds or subtracts the days using UTC date and time values.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

var simple_date_time = new SimpleDateTime("2019-01-01 08:00:00");
simple_date_time.addDaysUTC(-1)
ss.info(simple_date_time.getValue()); // 2018-12-31 08:00:00

addSeconds(seconds)

Add a specified number of seconds to the current SimpleDateTime object.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

var simple_date_time = new SimpleDateTime("2019-01-01 08:00:00");
simple_date_time.addSeconds(3600);
ss.info(simple_date_time.getValue()); // 2019-01-01 09:00:00

addWeeksLocalTime(weeks)

Adds a specified number of weeks to the current SimpleDateTime object. The negative value of the parameter will subtract the weeks.

The method determines local date and time equivalent to the value saved by the GlideDateTime object, then adds or subtracts the weeks using local date and time values.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

var simple_date_time = new SimpleDateTime("2019-01-01 08:00:00");
simple_date_time.addWeeksLocalTime(2)
ss.info(simple_date_time.getValue()); // 2019-01-15
