The "Killer" Date class is the work of about 8 people, who've never met. It started as a simple C++ class to represent calendar dates, and has grown to what is probably the most baroque example of the form. It handles all dates from 2713BC to the distant future.
 | Works with Microsoft, Borland and others C++ compilers "out of the box" |
| Should work with any C++ based on ANSI C. (even those which aren't up to the ISO C++ draft standard. |
| Authors actively seek complete platform independence. |
| Format days as "January 1, 1997" or "1 January 1997" or "1-Jan-97" or "19970101" or others |
| Translates ASCII strings in any of the above forms. |
| ++, --, AddWeek, AddMonth, AddYear, construct dates any number of different ways, including such as "The last Tuesday on October of 1962". |
| Every date related function you'll ever need. |
| Completely free! |
| May be used and distributed freely. |
| (may not be sold) |
