<p>The Convert Date to Lilian Format (CEEDAYS) API converts a string
representing a date into a number representing the number of days since 14
October 1582. This API makes it easier to do calculations such as the number of
days between two dates.</p>
<br>
<!-- Please NOTE: DO NOT DELETE THIS SECTION if this API has no authorities and locks. -->
<!-- Instead, use the commented out coding below to indicate NONE. -->
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<!-- Use this if there are no authorities and locks. -->
<p>None.</p>
<br>
<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>input_char_date (input by descriptor)</strong></dt>
<dd>A character string representing a date or timestamp in the format shown by
<em>picture_string</em>. Field width is 5 to 255 characters.
<em>Input-char-date</em> can contain leading or trailing blanks. Parsing for a
date begins with the first non-blank character unless the picture string
contains leading blanks, in which case CEEDAYS skips exactly that many
positions before parsing begins. After a valid date is parsed, remaining
characters are ignored. Valid dates are in the range 15 October 1582 to 31
December 9999.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>picture_string (input by descriptor)</strong></dt>
<dd>A character string indicating the format of the date value in
<em>input_char_date</em>, for example <samp>MM/DD/YY</samp>. Each character in
<em>picture_string</em> represents a character in <em>input_char_date</em>. If
delimiters such as the slash (<samp>/</samp>) appear in the picture string,
then leading zeros can be omitted. For example:
<pre>
CALL CEEDAYS('6/2/88' , 'MM/DD/YY', lildate, fc);
CALL CEEDAYS('06/02/88', 'MM/DD/YY', lildate, fc);
CALL CEEDAYS('060288' , 'MMDDYY' , lildate, fc);
CALL CEEDAYS('88154' , 'YYDDD' , lildate, fc);
</pre>
would all assign the same value to variable <samp>lildate</samp>. If any time
characters are included, for example <samp>HH:MI:SS YY/MM/DD</samp>, they count
as place holders but are otherwise ignored.
<p><a href="#TBLPICHAR">Picture Characters Used in Picture Strings</a> contains
a list of valid picture characters, and <a href="#TBLPICXMP">Examples of
Picture Strings Recognized by ILE Date and Time APIs</a> has examples of valid
picture strings.</p>
<p>If <em>picture_string</em> is null or blank, CEEDAYS obtains <em>picture_string</em>
based on the current job value for the country or region ID (CNTRYID). For
example, if the current value for CNTRYID is US (United States), the date
format is <samp>MM/DD/YY</samp>. If the current job value for CNTRYID is
FR (France), the date format is <samp>DD.MM.YYYY</samp>.</p>
<p>This default mechanism makes it easy for translators to specify the
preferred date format, and also easy for application programs and library
procedures to automatically use this format.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>output_Lilian_date (output)</strong></dt>
<dd>A 32-bit binary integer representing the Lilian date, which is the number
of days since 14 October 1582. For example, 16 May 1988 is day number
148&nbsp;138. If <em>input_char_date</em> does not contain a valid date,
<em>output_Lilian_date</em> is set to 0 and CEEDAYS ends with a nonzero
feedback code.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Omissible Parameter</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>fc (output)</strong></dt>
<dd>A 12-byte feedback code passed by reference. If specified as an argument,
feedback information (a condition token) is returned to the calling procedure.
If not specified and the requested operation was not successfully completed,
the condition is signaled to the condition manager.</dd>
</dl>

<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The inverse of CEEDAYS is CEEDATE. The CEEDATE API converts a date in the
Lilian format to character format.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Date calculations can be performed easily on the
<em>output_Lilian_date</em>, because it is an integer. Leap year and
end-of-year anomalies are avoided.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>See <a href="CEESCEN.htm">Set Century (CEESCEN) API</a> and <a href=
"CEEQCEN.htm">Query Century (CEEQCEN) API</a> for information on 2-digit
years.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>If picture_string includes a Japanese era symbol <samp>&lt;JJJJ&gt;</samp>,
the <samp>YY</samp> position in <em>input_char_date</em> is assumed to contain
the year within Japanese era. <a href="#TBLPICXMP">Examples of Picture Strings
Recognized by ILE Date and Time APIs</a> has an example. <a href=
"#TBLERANAME">Japanese Eras Used by ILE Date and Time APIs When &lt;JJJJ&gt;
Specified</a> contains a list of the Japanese eras recognized by CEEDAYS.</p>
</li>
<li>If <em>picture_string</em> includes a Republic of China (ROC) era symbol
<samp>&lt;CCCC&gt;</samp> or <samp>&lt;CCCCCCCC&gt;</samp>, the <samp>YY</samp>
position in <em>input_char_date</em> is assumed to contain the year within ROC
era. <a href="#TBLPICXMP">Examples of Picture Strings Recognized by ILE Date
and Time APIs</a> has an example. <a href="#TBLROCERA">Republic of China Eras
Used by ILE Date and Time APIs When &lt;CCCC&gt; or &lt;CCCCCCCC&gt;
Specified</a> contains a list of the ROC eras recognized by CEEDAYS. The coding
of YYY or ZYY without including one of the era symbols is a picture string
specification error.</li>
