The CGCClock class allows the developer to quickly place a clock in a user interface. It is publicly derived from the CGCColorStatic class to provide the ability to control the background and text colors, the font utilized, the border style and more.

The CGCClock class provides the capability to select between 12 hour format or 24 hour (sometimes referred to as "military time") format.
