8.11.9.102 FDate Intrinsic (function)

FDate()

FDate: CHARACTER*(*) function.

Intrinsic groups: unix.

Description:

Returns the current date (using the same format as CTIME()).

Equivalent to:

CTIME(TIME8())

Programs making use of this intrinsic might not be Year 10000 (Y10K) compliant. For example, the date might appear, to such programs, to wrap around (change from a larger value to a smaller one) as of the Year 10000.

See section 8.11.9.54 CTime Intrinsic (function).

For information on other intrinsics with the same name: See section 8.11.9.101 FDate Intrinsic (subroutine).
