To verify, you need to compare the code on the blockchain with the runtime code which can be gotten from solc contracts/DateTime.sol --optimize --bin-runtime.

DateTime struct

Internally, the following struct is used to represent date-time object.

struct DateTime {
        uint16 year;
        uint8 month;
        uint8 day;
        uint8 hour;
        uint8 minute;
        uint8 second;
        uint8 weekday;
}

API

• isLeapYear(uint16 year) constant returns (bool)

Given an integer year value, returns whether it is a leap year.

• parseTimestamp(uint timestamp) internal returns (DateTime dt)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime representation of it.

• getYear(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.year value for the timestamp.

• getMonth(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.month value for the timestamp.

• getDay(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.day value for the timestamp.

• getHour(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.hour value for the timestamp.

• getMinute(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.minute value for the timestamp.

• getSecond(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint16)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.second value for the timestamp.

• getWeekday(uint timestamp) constant returns (uint8)

Given a unix timestamp, returns the DateTime.weekday value for the timestamp.

• toTimestamp(uint16 year, uint8 month, uint8 day, uint8 hour, uint8 minute, uint8 second) constant returns (uint timestamp)
• toTimestamp(uint16 year, uint8 month, uint8 day, uint8 hour, uint8 minute) constant returns (uint timestamp)
• toTimestamp(uint16 year, uint8 month, uint8 day, uint8 hour) constant returns (uint timestamp)
• toTimestamp(uint16 year, uint8 month, uint8 day) constant returns (uint timestamp)

Returns the unix timestamp representation for the given date and time values.
