Getting todays date in HISE
-
Sounds reasonable
-
@Lunacy-Audio What sounds reasonable?
-
The number of days since 1970. Also, the addition of the function I mentioned above would be great too, but no rush.
-
@ustk The time since 1970 and also any format of system date would be great for now.
If it's too tricky to pull back an object with the attributes that @Lunacy-Audio suggested then a simple string would be useful too.Appreciate you looking into this for us
I'm sure it will come in handy for other HISE things outside of copy protection also. -
Ok guys I've added the
Engine.getSystemTime(bool includeDividerCharacters)
API from Juce
it returns a fully described string of the date and time in ISO-8601 format (using the local timezone) with or without divider characters.
It is up to you @Christoph-Hart to merge it of course, but if you find it unnecessary, the mod is easy for anyone interested...// Returns a string with separator: 2020-11-21T16:07:08.525+01:00 // Or without separator 20201121T160708.525+0100

@ustk Thank You!
-
@ustk Legend thanks!
-
@ustk Woo! Thanks man.
-
@Christoph-Hart is it possible to get this merged?
Cheers -
@d-healey are you still maintaining a branch that we could potentially merge this change made by @ustk to?
Desperate to make use of this 'Date Logic' but don't want to pester the man (@Christoph-Hart) anymore than we need to.Cheers
-
Itβs already merged in the main scriptnode branch.
-
Oh really?!
Legend thanks @Christoph-Hart and big thanks again to @ustk for making the change!
Downloading the latest scriptnode now... -
@LeeC look for
Engine.getSystemTime(bool includeDividerCharacters)
