The DateTime class represents a date-time. Use createDateTime in Session to create a DateTime object. Various methods throughout the lotus.domino package return DateTime objects.

The following methods access the DateTime properties:

• getLocalTime returns a String value containing a date-time in local time; setLocalTime with a String parameter sets the date-time to the local time represented by the String; setLocalTime with int parameters sets the time component of the date-time; setLocalDate, which takes int parameters, sets the date component of the date-time.
