\membersection{wxDate::wxDate}\label{wxdateconstr}

\func{}{wxDate}{\void}

Default constructor.

\func{}{wxDate}{\param{const wxDate\&}{ date}}

Copy constructor.

\func{}{wxDate}{\param{int}{ month}, \param{int}{ day}, \param{int}{ year}}

Constructor taking month, day and year.

\func{}{wxDate}{\param{long}{ julian}}

Constructor taking an integer representing the Julian date. This is the number of days since
1st January 4713 B.C., so to convert from the number of days since 1st January 1901,
construct a date for 1/1/1901, and add the number of days.

\func{}{wxDate}{\param{const wxString\& }{dateString}}

Constructor taking a string representing a date. This must be either the string TODAY, or of the
form {\tt MM/DD/YYYY} or {\tt MM-DD-YYYY}. For example:

\begin{verbatim}
  wxDate date("11/26/1966");
\end{verbatim}

\wxheading{Parameters}

\docparam{date}{Date to copy.}
