Get Email Date/Time

Demonstrates getting the email "Date" header field in a CkDateTime object. PHP Extension

<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

$email = new CkEmail();

// Load a .eml file into the email object.
$success = $email->LoadEml('/home/users/chilkat/eml/myEml.eml');

$dtTime = new CkDateTime();
$dtTime->SetFromRfc822($email->emailDateStr());

// Once we have the CkDateTime object, we can get the date/time in many different formats:

// Get as a RFC822 GMT string:
$bLocalTime = false;
print $dtTime->getAsRfc822($bLocalTime) . "\n";

// Get as an RFC822 string in the local timezone.
// (remember, the daylight savings that existed at the given time in the past is applied)
$bLocalTime = true;
print $dtTime->getAsRfc822($bLocalTime) . "\n";

// Get as a 32-bit UNIX time (local or GMT..)
// The Unix time is number of seconds since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC). 
$unixTime = $dtTime->GetAsUnixTime($bLocalTime);
print 'Unix time: ' . $unixTime . "\n";

// One can also get the as a "DtObj" object for accessing the individual
// parts of the date/time, such as month, day, year, hour, minute, etc.
// The DtObj can be obtained in the GMT or local timezone:
$dtObj = new CkDtObj();
$dtTime->ToDtObj($bLocalTime,$dtObj);

if ($dtTime->get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
    print 'This should never really happen!' . "\n";
    exit;
}

print $dtObj->get_Day() . '-' . $dtObj->get_Month() . '-' . $dtObj->get_Year() . ' ' . $dtObj->get_Hour()
     . ':' . $dtObj->get_Minute() . ':' . $dtObj->get_Second() . "\n";
