do_get_date of the most derived class.[beg, end) and parses out the calendar date value using the default format expected by this locale, which is determined as| date_order() | Format |
|---|---|

| beg | - | iterator designating the start of the sequence to parse |
| end | - | one past the end iterator for the sequence to parse |
| str | - | a stream object that this function uses to obtain locale facets when needed, e.g.std::ctype to skip whitespace orstd::collate to compare strings |
| err | - | stream error flags object that is modified by this function to indicate errors |
| t | - | pointer to thestd::tm object that will hold the result of this function call |
Iterator pointing one past the last character in[beg, end) that was recognized as a part of a valid date.
For the alphabetic components of the default date format (if any), this function is usually case-insensitive.
If a parsing error is encountered, most implementations of this function leave*t unmodified.
The implementation may support other date formats besides the ones required by the standard.

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.
| DR | Applied to | Behavior as published | Correct behavior |
|---|---|---|---|
| LWG 248 | C++98 | eofbit was not set upon reaching the end iterator | setseofbit if a valid date has not been read |
| LWG 461 | C++98 | do_get_date needed to parse localized date representation | parses with the format determined bydate_order() |
(C++11) | parses a date/time value of specified format (function template)[edit] |
