Parse a FIX date string of the given length into a Date.
Declared in <bdlt_fixutil.h>
static
int
parse(
Date* result,
char const* string,
int length);Parse the specified initial length characters of the specified FIX string as a Date value, and load the value into the specified result. Return 0 on success, and a non-zero value (with no effect) otherwise. string is assumed to be of the form: ` YYYYMMDD{(+|-)hh{:mm}|Z} ` Exactly length characters are parsed; parsing will fail if a proper prefix of string matches the expected format, but the entire length characters do not. If the optional timezone offset is present in string, it is parsed but ignored. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= length.
0 on success, non-zero on failure
