//
// MTime
//
// A generalized MARS time stamp.
//
//
// We do not use floating point values here, because of several reasons:
//  - having the times stored in integers only is more accurate and
//    more reliable in comparison conditions
//  - storing only integers gives similar bit-pattern for similar times
//    which makes compression (eg gzip algorithm in TFile) more
//    successfull
//
// Note, that there are many conversion function converting the day time
// into a readable string. Also a direct interface to SQL time strings
// is available.
//
// If you are using MTime containers as axis lables in root histograms
// use GetAxisTime(). Make sure that you use the correct TimeFormat
// on your TAxis (see GetAxisTime())
//
//
// WARNING: Be carefull changing this class. It is also used in the
//          MAGIC drive software cosy as VERY IMPORTANT stuff!
//
// Remarke: If you encounter strange behaviour, check the casting.
//          Note, that on Linux machines ULong_t and UInt_t is the same.
//
//
// Version 1:
// ----------
//  - first version
//
// Version 2:
// ----------
//  - removed fTimeStamp[2]
//
// Version 3:
// ----------
//  - removed fDurtaion - we may put it back when it is needed
//  - complete rewrite of the data members (old ones completely replaced)

//  There is no restriction on how the UT is apportioned between the

//  the date argument is a whole number and the ut argument lies in

//  the GMST at 0 hours UT1.  In fact, it gives the difference between
//  the GMST and the UT, the steady 4-minutes-per-day drawing-ahead of
//  ST with respect to UT.  When whole days are ignored, the expression
//  happens to equal the GMST at 0 hours UT1 each day.
//
//  In this routine, the entire UT1 (the sum of the two arguments date
//  and ut) is used directly as the argument for the standard formula.
//  The UT1 is then added, but omitting whole days to conserve accuracy.

//  %B  The full month name according to the current locale.
//  %c  The preferred date and time representation for the current locale.
//  %d  The day of the month as a decimal number (range  01 to 31).
//  %e  Like %d, the day of the month as a decimal number,
//      but a leading zero is replaced by a space.
//  %H  The hour as a decimal number using a 24-hour clock (range 00 to 23)
//  %k  The hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number (range 0 to 23);
//      single digits are preceded by a blank.
//  %m  The month as a decimal number (range 01 to 12).
//  %M  The minute as a decimal number (range 00 to 59).
//  %R  The time in 24-hour notation (%H:%M).  For a
//      version including the seconds, see %T below.
//  %S  The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 61).
//  %T  The time in 24-hour notation (%H:%M:%S).
//  %x  The preferred date representation for the current
//      locale without the time.
//  %X  The preferred time representation for the current
//      locale without the date.
//  %y  The year as a decimal number without a century (range 00 to 99).
//  %Y  The year as a decimal number including the century.
//  %+  The date and time in date(1) format.
//
// The default is: Tuesday 16.February 2004 12:17:22
//
// The maximum size of the return string is 128 (incl. NULL)
//
// For dates before 1. 1.1902  a null string is returned
// For dates after 31.12.2037 a null string is returned
//
// To change the localization use loc, eg loc = "da_DK", "de_DE".
// Leaving the argument empty will just take the default localization.
//
// If loc is "", each part of the locale that should be modified is set
// according  to the environment variables. The details are implementation
// dependent.  For glibc, first (regardless of category), the  environment
// variable  LC_ALL  is  inspected, next the environment variable with the
// same name as the category (LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES,  LC_MONE?
// TARY,  LC_NUMERIC,  LC_TIME) and finally the environment variable LANG.
// The first existing environment variable is used.
//
// A  locale  name  is  typically  of the form language[_territory][.code?
// set][@modifier], where language is an ISO 639 language code,  territory
// is an ISO 3166 country code, and codeset is a character set or encoding
// identifier like ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8.   For  a  list  of  all  supported
// locales, try "locale -a", cf. locale(1).
