At my new workplace, they represent a lot of dates as "days since epoch" (which I will hereafter call DSE). I'm running into issues in JavaScript converting from DSE to seconds since epoch (UNIX timestamps). Here's my function to do the conversion: function daysToTimestamp(days) { return Math.round(+days * 86400); } By way of exam...
I've got a large source tree (> 2 GB, WINCE build tree) that I would like to start managing with Subversion. Up to this point, 'versioning' has been managed through keeping multiple copies of the tree, and using Beyond Compare to find differences. The last big stumbling block I see to using Subversion is that it modifies the file timest...
I'm trying to do what I think is a simple thing under Linux. I have a bash script which runs various test programs, and I want to determine which files in the current directory were created by the test programs. So I am doing something like this: touch timestamp-file run the test find -newer timestamp-file -type f > list-of-files rm -f...
How do you format Rails timestamps in a more human-readable format? If I simply print out created_at or updated_at in my view like this: <% @created = scenario.created_at %> Then I will get: 2009-03-27 23:53:38 UTC ...
In Rails, I find that timestamps in the console look different to the actual html view even when you have the same code. Unless I'm doing something really stupid: >> article = News.first => #<News id: 1, title: "Testing", body: "yadda yadda", role_id: 1, created_at: "2009-04-12 05:33:07", updated_at: "2009-04-12 05:33:07"> >> article.cr...
I can't seem to get a reliable timestamp using winapi functions. For example: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { HANDLE file; BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION finfo; SYSTEMTIME systime; file = CreateFile("test.txt",GENERIC_READ,FILE_SHARE_READ,NULL,OPEN_EXISTING,FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,NULL); GetFileInformationByHandle(file, FileTimeToSystemT...
I have a set of mail logs: mail.log mail.log.0 mail.log.1.gz mail.log.2.gz each of these files contain chronologically sorted lines that begin with timestamps like: May 3 13:21:12 ... How can I easily grab every log entry after a certain date/time and before another date/time using bash (and related command line tools) without compar...
When I right-click on a recently modified file (like a jar generated by Java Builder) and view the file properties, the modification timestamp is always off by 2.5 hrs. Windows explorer, on the other hand, is showing correct timestamp. I suspect that their some time zone setting in eclipse somewhere that is used in translating the file...
Hello, i have a "simple" problem with the PHP timestamp (on a linux machine). I need to get the user birthdate in year-month-date (using 3 menus - html select). When the user is born on 1970-1-1 the timestamp is zero and the application logic gets everything wrong. How would you deal with this case? Regards, ...
I'm working on a journal-type application in Python. The application basically permits the user write entries in the journal and adds a time-stamp for later querying the journal. As of now, I use the time.ctime() function to generate time-stamps that are visually friendly. The journal entries thus look like: Thu Jan 21 19:59:47 2010 Di...
Hello world! I'm writing a file transfer application, and I need to copy files from NTFS to FAT drives. Reading from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/127830, I understand that a time such as #11/29/2004 7:31:06 PM, 250ms# should get translated to #11/29/2004 7:31:08 PM, 0ms# when copying to a FAT hard drive. However, what actually happen...

any suggestions to make it better? function convertToFBTimestamp($date){ $this_date = date('Y-m-d-H-i-s', strtotime($date)); $cur_date = date('Y-m-d-H-i-s'); list ($this_year, $this_month, $this_day, $this_hour, $this_min, $this_sec) = explode('-',$this_date); list ($cur_year, $cur_month, $cur_day, $cur_hour, $cur_min, $cur_sec) = expl...
In Perl I am trying to read a log file and will print only the lines that have a timestamp between two specific times. The time format is hh:mm:ss and this is always the third value on each log. For example, I would be searching for lines that would fall between 12:52:33 to 12:59:33 I am new to Perl and have no idea which route to tak...

This is a follow up question as hadley pointed out unless I fix the problem with the time stamps the graphs I produce would be incorrect. With this in mind I am working towards fixing the issues I am having with the code. So far I have from my earlier questions that have been answered stopped using the attach() function in favour of usin...
I'm creating objects which will be sent to a server, and I'm trying to ensure I account for timezone and Daylight Savings issues, so I want my timestamps to be "seconds since 1970" regardless of timezone, etc. Is [NSDate timeintervalSinceReferenceDate] sufficient for this? In the docs I know it says time since January 1 1970 00:00:00 GM...

Normally I would split the string at the colons, but since the tim...
Most time-based (type 1) UUIDs are created using the current time. I'm migrating a MySQL database to cassandra and would like to create timebased UUIDs for archived items. Can someone provide an example of how type-1 UUIDs are created using past time periods? ...
