11.22.3 DateTime Objects

This class may be initialized with seconds since the epoch, a time tuple, or an ISO 8601 time/date string. It has the following methods, supported mainly for internal use by the marshalling/unmarshalling code:

decode( string): Accept a string as the instance's new time value.

encode( out): Write the XML-RPC encoding of this DateTime item to the out stream object.

It also supports certain of Python's built-in operators through _cmp__ and __repr__ methods.
