lint_yyyymmd0.c File Reference

Purpose

The yyyymmd0 linter ensures that the data represents a meaningful date, in YYYYMMDD format, additionally permitting YYYYMM00 format indicating an unspecified day.

Functional Description

◆ gs1_lint_yyyymmd0()

GS1_SYNTAX_DICTIONARY_API gs1_lint_err_t gs1_lint_yyyymmd0 ( const char *const  data,
size_t *const  err_pos,
size_t *const  err_len 
)

Used to ensure that an AI component conforms to the YYYYMMDD or YYYYMM00 formats.

Parameters
[in]dataPointer to the null-terminated data to be linted. Must not be NULL.
[out]err_posTo facilitate error highlighting, the start position of the bad data is written to this pointer, if not NULL.
[out]err_lenThe length of the bad data is written to this pointer, if not NULL.
Returns
GS1_LINTER_OK if okay.
GS1_LINTER_DATE_TOO_SHORT if the data is too short for YYYYMMDD format.
GS1_LINTER_DATE_TOO_LONG if the data is too long for YYYYMMDD format.
GS1_LINTER_NON_DIGIT_CHARACTER if the data contains a non-digit character.
GS1_LINTER_ILLEGAL_MONTH if the data contains an invalid month.
GS1_LINTER_ILLEGAL_DAY if the data contains an invalid day of the month.
