Well, at first I wanted to implement a multicalender system for mysql
through a variable per column that can be set while creating tables,
something like : Create table t0 (dt Date calender jalali) ;  but as
mysql didn't accept , I worked on some functions.Now, I save iranian
Date in Date data type of mysql so why can't i define JDateAdd and
JDateDiff for iranian Date ??

Of course you are right , I shouldn't implement all Date functions
again but don't we need DateDiff function?
Maybe I misunderestood what you are saying , sorry.
