 /**
- * Converts date string to number of seconds since Jan 1st, 1970.

- * Syntax:
- * - If not a duration:
  *  [{YYYY-MM-DD|YYYYMMDD}]{T| }{HH[:MM[:SS[.m...]]][Z]|HH[MM[SS[.m...]]][Z]}
- * Time is localtime unless Z is suffixed to the end. In this case GMT
- * Return the date in micro seconds since 1970
- *
- * - If a duration:
- *  HH[:MM[:SS[.m...]]]
- *  S+[.m...]
  * @endcode
+ * Time is localtime unless Z is appended, in which case it is
+ * interpreted as UTC.
+ * If the year-month-day part isn't specified it takes the current
+ * year-month-day.
+ * Returns the number of microseconds since 1st of January, 1970 up to
+ * the time of the parsed date or INT64_MIN if \p datestr cannot be
+ * successfully parsed.
+ * - If a duration the syntax is:
+ * @code
+ *  [-]HH[:MM[:SS[.m...]]]
+ *  [-]S+[.m...]
+ * @endcode
+ * Returns the number of microseconds contained in a time interval
+ * with the specified duration or INT64_MIN if \p datestr cannot be
+ * succesfully parsed.
+ * @param duration Flag which tells how to interpret \p datestr, if
+ * not zero \p datestr is interpreted as a duration, otherwise as a
+ * date.
