    - #### Date

          PyObject Date(int year,
                        int month,
                        int day)

      This function constructs an object holding a date value.
      Parameters:
        `year` - to set
        `month` - to set
        `day` - to set
      Returns:
        date as PyObject

    - #### Time

          PyObject Time(int hour,
                        int minute,
                        int second)

      This function constructs an object holding a time value.
      Parameters:
        `hour` - to set
        `minute` - to set
        `second` - to set
      Returns:
        time as PyObject

    - #### Timestamp

          PyObject Timestamp(int year,
                             int month,
                             int day,
                             int hour,
                             int minute,
                             int second)

      This function constructs an object holding a time stamp value.
      Parameters:
        `year` - to set
        `month` - to set
        `day` - to set
        `hour` - to set
        `minute` - to set
        `second` - to set
      Returns:
        time stamp as PyObject

    - #### DateFromTicks

          PyObject DateFromTicks(long ticks)

      This function constructs an object holding a date value from the given ticks value (number of seconds since the epoch; see the documentation of the standard Python time module for details).

      Note: The DB API 2.0 spec calls for time in seconds since the epoch while the Java Date object returns time in milliseconds since the epoch. This module adheres to the python API and will therefore use time in seconds rather than milliseconds, so adjust any Java code accordingly.

      Parameters:
        `ticks` - number of seconds since the epoch
      Returns:
        PyObject

    - #### TimeFromTicks

          PyObject TimeFromTicks(long ticks)

      This function constructs an object holding a time value from the given ticks value (number of seconds since the epoch; see the documentation of the standard Python time module for details).

      Note: The DB API 2.0 spec calls for time in seconds since the epoch while the Java Date object returns time in milliseconds since the epoch. This module adheres to the python API and will therefore use time in seconds rather than milliseconds, so adjust any Java code accordingly.

      Parameters:
        `ticks` - number of seconds since the epoch
      Returns:
        PyObject

    - #### TimestampFromTicks

          PyObject TimestampFromTicks(long ticks)

      This function constructs an object holding a time stamp value from the given ticks value (number of seconds since the epoch; see the documentation of the standard Python time module for details).

      Note: The DB API 2.0 spec calls for time in seconds since the epoch while the Java Date object returns time in milliseconds since the epoch. This module adheres to the python API and will therefore use time in seconds rather than milliseconds, so adjust any Java code accordingly.

      Parameters:
        `ticks` - number of seconds since the epoch
      Returns:
        PyObject
