C-style date and time
constexpr operator std::chrono::sys_days ( ) const noexcept ;
(1) (since C++20)
constexpr explicit operator std::chrono::local_days ( ) const noexcept ;
(2) (since C++20)

Converts *this to a std::chrono::time_point representing the same date as this year_month_weekday

1) If year( ).ok ( ) && month( ).ok ( ) && weekday( ).ok ( ) :
  • If index() == 0, returns a sys_days that represents the date 7 days prior to the first weekday()
  • Else, returns a sys_days that represents the date (index( ) - 1 ) * 7 days after the first weekday()
Otherwise, the returned value is unspecified.
2) Same as (1), but returns local_days instead of sys_days. Equivalent to local_days(sys_days( *this).time_since_epoch ( ) )

Example

#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std::chrono;
 
int main()
{
    constexpr auto ymwd{Tuesday[2]/11/2021};
    std::cout << ymwd << '\n';
    // convert from field-based to serial-based to add hours
    constexpr auto sd = sys_days{ymwd} + 24h;
    std::cout << sd << '\n';
    constexpr auto ymd = floor<days>(sd);
    static_assert(ymd == November/10/2021);
}

Output:

2021/Nov/Tue[2]
