set resultDateTime = aDateTime.add(aDuration);
set resultDateTime = aDateTime.subtract(aDuration);
Semantics
add() and subtract() add respectively subtract a duration to/from a DateTime object.
This is calculated e.g. as follows:
31.01.2017 + 1 month = 31.02.2017
The resulting date 31.02.2017 is normalized to 03.03.2017.
For a deeper understanding of how you can calculate with DateTime objects, refer to DateTime Arithmetics.
Substitutables
aDuration
Can be any variable or object attribute having the type Base Components::Basic Behavior::DateTime::DurationStructure.
resultDateTime
The resulting DateTime object.
