Name	Description
operator<<	Streams a datetime.

Represents a broken datetime by its year, month, day, hour, minute, second and microsecond components. This type is close to the protocol and should not be used as a vocabulary type. Instead, cast it to a std::chrono::time_point by calling as_time_point or get_time_point.

As opposed to time_point, this type allows representing invalid and zero datetimes.
