Time required in Unix time stamp format

Hello ,
I am new to java as I have recently started working on it.
My requirement is to get current system date in Unix format which is integer(32 bit value) .Is there any class in java which will allow me to do this operation.
Regards
Vijay

System.currentTimeMillis() returns a long (64bit integer) containing the number of milliseconds since Jan 01 1970. The UNIX time format is the number of seconds since Jan 01 1970, so all you need to do is get the time using System.currentTimeMillis(), divide by 1000, and cast it to an int (32 bit integer).

VI to convert Unix time to standard time?

hi,
I am in need of a VI to convert Unix time to Standard time?
eg: Unix time: 1268845177 in seconds
Standard time: GMT: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:59:37 GMT
Your timezone(U.S):
Wednesday, March 17, 2010 10:59:37 AM
I have the calculation but not full formula.
Unix time is in seconds from Jan 1,1970, 00:00:00 UTC, starting at 0 counting forward.
When 1268845177/86400 = 14685 days.
86400 = 60*60*24 seconds
But how to convert the 14685 days and relate to the current date, how it should be done?
Either the formula or a VI to convert Unix time to standard time will be a help.

Arvinth

Timestamps and the PC clock vs. time on the net are different and I'd say somewhat unrelated concepts.
You are worried about accuracy of the current time. Timestamps have nothing to do with current time, but are a way of identifying and particular moment in time.
Yes, the PC clock gets its time from the net assuming the time server settings are all set properly. Even the correction of the current PC time may not happen exactly when the leap second gets inserted. It may be some time before the PC resynchronizes with the net time. The PC doesn't know if the existence of when a leap second will occur. And neither does the LabVIEW timestamp.
Here is an example. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second, a leap second will occur at the end of June 30 of this year UTC. Since my clock is eastern daylight time at that date, I put together an example for 8pm on June 30 (UTC +4). You'll see that the 3 values (a second before, the exact time, and a second after) show they are all 1 second apart. There is no extra second accounted for. So in real life the time a second after vs. a second before are actually 3 seconds apart, but LabVIEW only show 2 seconds. Feel free to play with the attached snippet for different timezones and daylight savings time and all of that.
I don't think you really have as big of a problem as you are trying to investigate here. If your timing needs are that critical where you need accuracy of the current time to better than a second, then you shouldn't be looking at LabVIEW timestamps, PC time clock, or internet time at all, but look at a high accuracy timing source perhaps based on a GPS clock.
Unless you have a particular test planned to run over the expected point of time where a leap second is inserted, then you shouldn't have to worry. Even if you do have a test run over the leap second, you probably don't need to worry either. If the test is based on a waveform datatype, then you have a T0 timestamp, and a dT that will keep track of all the individual data points accurately.

Convert unix time stamp to readable time with daylight saving

Hello NG,
I have a table that has a column containing time stamps in the unix time format (seconds since 1970). If I show these times to the user, they should be converted to some readable format. I'm using the following sql code as an example:
select to_char(
to_timestamp_tz(
to_char(
to_date('01011970','ddmmyyyy') + 1/24/60/60 * 1086508800,
'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')||' Europe/Warsaw',
'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS TZR'),
'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS TZH:TZM')
from dual;
The output I get is the following:
TO_CHAR(TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ(TO
2004-06-06 08:00:00 +02:00
The output is right, but the format I need is the following:
2004-06-06 10:00:00
How do I have to alter the statement to get the correct result (add the two hours of the timezone and dst to the time)?
Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Mario Freimann

That's the strange thin ... this timezone doesn't exist.
Running the query I get the error message

Dates and convert to Unix Time Stamp using strtotime

I kind of asked this before but now I really need this to work since I'm currently creating a form using the Update Record Form Wizard and the Date Picker to add/update/delete tour dates and this DB was created years ago and uses Unix Time Stamps to enter dates in the DB (example: 1202596733) and I know ADDT's date picker automatically doesn't support that format but there's got to be some way to incorporate the strtotime PHP command into either the add page or the tNG.dispatcher.class.php file. But how? Has anyone experimented with this previously? I was on another forum and they told me to add this:
$timestamp = strtotime($_POST['tourdate']);
to my code but they didn't tell me where and nothing seems to work in making it happen. Anybody got a clue?

Hi Sean,
You should be able to simply add the new directory to your include path. But this might fail if relative rather than absolute paths are used
Indeed, ADDT internally uses relative paths at various places, e.g. the file "includes/common/KT_functions.inc.php" has function named KT_getSiteRoot(), where the variable $siteroot has the following value:
dirname(realpath(__FILE__)) . '/../..';
In addition many scripts are defining an absolute path to other scripts, e.g. the Captcha configuration file sets the global variable "KT_CAPTCHA_TEMP_URL" to "includes/common/_temp/.captcha/" -- means that moving the ADDT libraries to a folder like "includes/ssa/" will not work without modifying whatever ADDT script which uses such a hard-coded path, and there are plenty of them.

How do you vary the Date/Time stamp format in File Adapters

In the receiver channel of the File Adapter where you specify the 'File Name Scheme', you do have the option of specifying a 'File Construction Mode' of 'Add Time Stamp'. How can you specify a different Date/Time stamp format ( eg MM/DD/YY vs YYYYMMDD vs MMDDYY, etc. ) without changing the Date/Time stamp for the entire SAP system? Also, can you control where the Date/Time stamp appears in the filename?

Hi,
There are many threads discussing the same issue. Go thro the following:
Dynamic file name (Date) in Receiver File Adapter
Receiver File Adapter - TimeStamp
Bhavesh's reply in above thread:
You can use Adapter Specific Identifiers and then change the file name in the mapping. Append the tiem stamp in the format that you want and so on.
Just use this code in an UDF,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
java.text.SimpleDateFormat dateformat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat( "yyyyMMdd" );
dateformat.format( new java.util.Date() );
String newfilename=SourceFileName+dateformat;
// change to new file name
conf.put(key, newfilename);
return "";

Add time Stamp format in File Adapter

Is it possible to change Add Time Stamp format ??
If so please let me know the procedure to chnage it..
It is scenario with no mapping so i cant go either Dynamic configuration or Variable substitotion.
Thanks & Regards,
Polas

Hi,
I think you need to assign it dynamically as you cannot change the format for Add TimeStamp
See the below links:

Excel time stamp format mismatch

Hello all,
I am writing time stamp into an excel file. Time stamp for time 2013 & 2012 appears different although format & method of writing is same in both the cases.
In the attached file below. When time stamp is 2012 then format of time stamp in excel file & in input is same but when time stamp is 2013 then format of time stamp what i am writing actually & what appears in excel file is different.
Dont know where exactly it is going wrong ?
Kudos are always welcome if you got solution to some extent.
I need my difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy my success.

Thats what my question is ?
Just to be absolutely certain I understand you: when you type a date in 2013 into an Excel sheet, it displays differently than when you type a date in 2012 into the same cell in the same Excel sheet. Is that correct? If you did this with two different files, try it with a single file.
If you see this behavior when you enter the text directly from the keyboard, why are you posting it in a LabVIEW forum? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with LabVIEW.
Why can't you upload your Excel files that demonstrate this behavior?

Geotagging / GPS Metadata Time Stamp Format

I have a photo/image taken on an iPhone. The GPS information in the Preview application (inspector menu) shows a Time Stamp of 11:10:56.63. Can anyone explain to me what the ".63" at the end of the time stamp format represents? Thank You.

An obvious decimal point after a number has been the standard format to display tenths, hundredths and thousandths for hundreds of years. It's ridiculous that it has to be 'proven' in a court of law and can't be taken at face value for what it obviously is to any educated person. Ask 1000 high school educated people what a decimal point looks like and what it means and I'm sure you'll get 1000 correct answers. One more reason for my extreme dislike of what lawyers have done, and are doing, to our society.

Error when add seconds to Time Stamp format

Hi,
I've created a subVI that transform an string data/time to Time stamp format.
The subVI seems that it works fine, but when I use the data 26/10/2014 and I add 1 day, it crashes! The result is 26/10/2014 23:00:00 instead of 27/10/2014 00:00:00.

Unix Time Stamp to Date for display

Post Author: merph
CA Forum: Formula
I need to convert a unix time stamp to a readable date for a report. Does anyone outthere have a good formula for this?
Thanks
Merph

Post Author: V361
CA Forum: Formula
If you can pull a couple of unix epoch times from the database, then let's run these formulae against them and see if it brings up the correct date and time separately. These formula are pulled from another post by UberWolfe.
ctime(( - 18000) / 86400+25569)
cdate(( - 18000) / 86400+25569)
The 18000 is for to convert for timezones for example 18000 is for -5 GMT.
