In this simple example, we\textquotesingle{}ll explain how to format the label displaying month and year, and also set weekday names.

To format month and year label, we need to create a callback function to create a string given the selected time, declared under a {\ttfamily  struct tm }.

{\ttfamily  struct tm }, declared on {\ttfamily time.\+h}, is a structure composed by nine integers\+: \begin{DoxyItemize}
\item tm\+\_\+sec seconds \mbox{[}0,59\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+min minutes \mbox{[}0,59\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+hour hour \mbox{[}0,23\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+mday day of month \mbox{[}1,31\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+mon month of year \mbox{[}0,11\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+year years since 1900 \item tm\+\_\+wday day of week \mbox{[}0,6\mbox{]} (Sunday = 0) \item tm\+\_\+yday day of year \mbox{[}0,365\mbox{]} \item tm\+\_\+isdst daylight savings flag \begin{DoxyNote}{Note}
glib version has 2 additional fields.
\end{DoxyNote}
For our function, only stuff that matters are tm\+\_\+mon and tm\+\_\+year. But we don\textquotesingle{}t need to access it directly, since there are nice functions to format date and time, as {\ttfamily strftime}. We will get abbreviated month (b) and year (y) (check strftime manpage for more) in our example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCodeInclude}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keyword}{static}\ \textcolor{keywordtype}{char}\ *}
\DoxyCodeLine{\_format\_month\_year(\textcolor{keyword}{struct}\ tm\ *format\_time)}
\DoxyCodeLine{\{}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \textcolor{keywordtype}{char}\ buf[32];}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \textcolor{comment}{/*\ abbreviates\ month\ and\ year\ */}}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \textcolor{keywordflow}{if}\ (!strftime(buf,\ \textcolor{keyword}{sizeof}(buf),\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}\%b\ \%y"{}},\ format\_time))\ \textcolor{keywordflow}{return}\ NULL;}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \textcolor{keywordflow}{return}\ strdup(buf);}
\DoxyCodeLine{\}}

\end{DoxyCodeInclude}
 We need to alloc the string to be returned, and calendar widget will free it when it\textquotesingle{}s not needed, what is done by {\ttfamily strdup}. So let\textquotesingle{}s register our callback to calendar object\+: 
\begin{DoxyCodeInclude}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ elm\_calendar\_format\_function\_set(cal,\ \_format\_month\_year);}

\end{DoxyCodeInclude}
 To set weekday names, we should declare them as an array of strings\+:  
\begin{DoxyCodeInclude}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \textcolor{keyword}{const}\ \textcolor{keywordtype}{char}\ *weekdays[]\ =}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \ \ \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}S"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}M"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}T"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}W"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}T"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}F"{}},\ \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}S"{}}}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ \ \ \};}

\end{DoxyCodeInclude}
 And finally set them to calendar\+: 
\begin{DoxyCodeInclude}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\ \ \ elm\_calendar\_weekdays\_names\_set(cal,\ weekdays);}

\end{DoxyCodeInclude}
 Our example will look like this\+:\end{DoxyItemize}
