Date.this

Parses @date_string and tries to extract a date from it. This recognizes all of the "HTTP-date" formats from RFC 2616, all ISO 8601 formats containing both a time and a date, RFC 2822 dates, and reasonable approximations thereof. (Eg, it is lenient about whitespace, leading "0"s, etc.)

Parameters

dateString string

the date in some plausible format

Return Value

a new #SoupDate, or %NULL if @date_string could not be parsed.

Throws

ConstructionException GTK+ fails to create the object.
