Function: org-parse-time-string

org-parse-time-string is a byte-compiled function defined in org-macs.el.gz.

Signature

(org-parse-time-string S &optional NODEFAULT)

Documentation

Parse Org time string S.

If time is not given, defaults to 0:00. However, with optional NODEFAULT, hour and minute fields are nil if not given.

Throw an error if S does not contain a valid Org time string. Note that the first match for YYYY-MM-DD will be used (e.g.,
"-52000-02-03" will be taken as "2000-02-03").

This should be a lot faster than the parse-time-string.
