Support ISO-Format for NotesDateTime-Object in LotusScript

Every modern and standardized framework can handle Date/Time-Objects in ISO-Format (see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601).

Just to make things easier for REST-Services it is necessary to have a proper Date/Time-Format that can be transfered in both ways.

There are two possible ways to get this feature for the Date/Time-Object:

1) add a method .getISODate(preserveLocalTime As Boolean) for the NotesDateTime-Object

2) extend the Format-Funktion with a new parameter ISO

Both ways need to take care of a possible given time part within the NotesDateTime-Object.

    FIVE YEARS of stubborn ignorance. They do not give a shit for the very basics in this product.

    I guess we will have to wait until the Starfleet Command will introduce UGT (universal galaxy time).

    Pff..... 2 years and it still needs review and no one cares... Does it make any sense to write something here?.. That's a shame for IBM/HCL. So important and widely used API (Dates) had to be standardized long time ago.

    Yes please! Makes a lot of sense to convert from and to this standard format!

    Not just for Lotus Script but also for @Formulas!

    Also make the additional changes at C++ layer to allow timezone to be set when creating a DateTime and storage layer. Currently when creating a date time it uses the server timezone, which limits the usefulness of new Java 8 date/time constructs. There are quirks at the moment for timezones like India that are GMT + 4.5h

Allow Date/Time fields to support RFC3339 / RFC8601 formats (e.g. YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm)

Merged
It would be nice if the format options for a Date/Time field allowed RFC3339 / RFC8601 formats, e.g. YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm. This would allow web forms to use newer web input types without needing to write extra code (WQO/WQS agents). The existing date ...

Support ISO 8601 instants in session.createDateTime

Merged
This one is related to https://domino-ideas.hcltechsw.com/ideas/DDXP-I-495 but would be more exacting. Currently, session.createDateTime("2023-04-26T16:01:03.148Z") throws an "Invalid date" NotesException. This format is extremely common (and for ...
