got stuck on this part of my program.. and it seems i cant find a decent example of how to do this..
i got a QDateTimeEdit object i already set its displaying value to what my current system time is using
self.ui.dateTimeEdit.setDate(QDate.currentDate())
its output is for example is 7/16/2012 12:00:00 AM
Now my problem is.. i want to set 12:00:00 AM to 11:59:59 PM
how can i do this please?
thanks to anyone willing to spend time on my question.
There are basically three different objects you can use in PyQt:
QDate
QTime
QDateTime
The QDateTime accepts the other two types. So you can define the date of a QDateTime Object using a QDate instance and the same can be done with QTime.
Obviously, if you're trying to change the time you need to use a QTime object.
Here are some examples:
#create a QDateTimeEdit object
myDTE = QtGui.QDateTimeEdit()
#get current date and time
now = QtCore.QDateTime.currentDateTime()
#set current date and time to the object
myDTE.setDateTime(now)
#set date only
today = QtCore.QDate.currentDate()
myDTE.setDate(today)
#set time only
this_moment = QtCore.QTime.currentTime()
myDTE.setTime(this_moment)
#set an arbitrary date
some_date = QtCore.QDate(2011,4,22) #Year, Month, Day
myDTE.setDate(some_date)
#set an arbitrary time
some_time = QtCore.QTime(16,33,15) #Hours, Minutes, Seconds (Only H and M required)
myDTE.setTime(some_time)
#set an arbitrary date and time
someDT = QtCore.QDateTime(2011,4,22,16,33,15)
myDTE.setDateTime(someDT)
