Can I get MJD (date and time) in LabVIEW 2012 SP1?

I need to time stamp my data before sending it to the file. I have been doing this with the standard calendar date and time but MJD is what we prefer to use. How can I get an MJD timestamp in LabVIEW 2012 SP1?

Hello Brad_Henry,
The Format Date/Time String will return the day of the year when the %j argument is used, as per this help document:
LabVIEW Help: Format Codes for the Time Format String
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/glang/codes_for_time_format_str/
If you're looking for the actual MJD, I'm not aware of a built-in function that generates this so you'll probably need to create or find a function to calculate it manually. This should pretty basic arithmetic, and it looks like people have already made a few public examples, the first two search results here look to be just about what you need:

HT2473 How can I get the date and time back on the menu bar?

Several items disappeared from my menu bar for no reason known to me. I miss the date and time and want it back. Please . I have gone to System Preferences and clicked "date and Time" but it will not allow me to check anything on the page even though there is a box "Show date and time in Menu bar".
What should be my next move?

One more thing might help us
In the Finder > Date & Time Preferences > Take a Full ScreenShot of the entire display showing the "absence" of the check box (or whatever) to Show in Menu Bar
⌘ Command + ⇧ Shift > Press ' 3 ' > release all three
Use the camera tool > locate the screenshot in the Desktop (not sure whether it will say "Picture 1.png" or have a TimeDateStamp as a title.

Can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic?

I know I can get info and see a pics info, but can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic itself?

Use the Photos->Batch Change menu option to set the Title to Date and Time. That will give you what you want under each thumbnail.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

Get the date and time from iframe.

Hi,
Am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0., I have used the following iframe source which gets the date and time.
<af:form>
<iframe src="http://free.timeanddate.com/clock/i3xb4nm0/n1722/tt0/tw0/ts1" frameborder="0" width="244" height="19">

I need to get the date and time separately to perform some validation. How can i get it.
regards,
Prasad K T,
9840021070

Prasad,
I don't understand your use case. The url you use is a json web service which returns it's result as either xml or json payload. Why do you pretty print this as a web page and try to get to the result this way?
Why don't you get the result directly using the json result or (AFAIK) the java script api which the service also provides. Check the documentation of the service.
From your description I understand that the user enters a time. You need to know if the time is before or after 2:30pm and have to set a 'shift' to A or B.
Where do I need a timeservice in this validation?
From what I see your approach won't work. As I still don't understand the use case I don't know how to help.

HT2305 how can I correct my date and time on my 3G?

How can I correct my date and time on my 3G? Thanks in advance!

Just trying to go along the free route. I found Garage Buy This doesn't work to well but lets you create an applescript and enters the auction into ical. Then you can set ical to run the script once it gets closer to the time.
Ical only lets you set a time of a minute before the date. So you have to edit the script to add a Delay 59 to have it run 1 second before. From a few refreshes of the time page it looks like ebay time is a second behind, that could be easily be due to time to load the page. anyway i'll opt for a delay of 57secs and give that a try.

How to get system date and time?

Can someone show me a code on how to get system date and time.
Thanks!

there is one really easy way to get system time, the api gives a great example of code on this. use gregorian calendar, which you'll find in the api under GregorianCalendar. You only need to create one instance of GC, ie Calendar time = new GregorianCalendar();
you save seconds, minute and hours into int values, so you don't have to access the system time every second, you can create a thread which adds one to the int second value, if oyu see what i mean, for example, i have saved the hours, minutes and seconds as int values;
int hour, minute, second;
i can then create a thread (Thread thread = new Thread(this) and run it like:
Calendar time;
int hour, minute, second;
Thread thread = null;
public MyTime() {
hour= time.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
minute = time.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
second = time.get(Calendar.SECOND);
if(thread == null) {
thread = new Thread(this);
thread.start();
public void run() {
Thread t = Thread.currentThread();
while(thread == t) {
thread.sleep(1000);
second++;
if(second > 59)
minute++;
if(minute>59)
hour++;
formatTime();
public void formatTime() {
second = (second > 59? 0 : second);
minute = (minute > 59? 0 : minute);
hour = (hour > 23? 0 : hour);
System.out.println(hour+":"+minute+":"+second);
public static void main(String[] args) {
new MyTime();
I know this looks like gibberish but it should work. If not, try to fix the problem, i have written from memory really but i guarantee you, this gets the time then every second, simply adds one to the second and then formats time. You can also access the day, month and year then format them using the above code. I don't like giving code since you should really do these things yourself but it is 2:04am, i have nothing better to do and i am not tired so i did you a favour - i have become what i always did not want to, someone ho stays upall night writing code.

Problem with getting current date and time using oracle.jbo.domain.Date

I`d like to get current date and time using oracle.jbo.domain.Date method getCurrentDate(), but it always return current date and 12:00:00. I also need to get the current time.

I think you should use java.sql.Timestamp domain.
(And set database type to TIME or DATETIME.)

What happened to the Get/Set Date and Time utilities from RT 7.1?

I'd like to use the Get/Set Date and Time utilities that were available in 7.1, but disappeared after that. I see that the 7.1 utilites call a dll that does not appear to be installed with LabVIEW RT 8 and later. What do I need to do to use the utilites from 7.1 that do not appear in later versions?

In Labview 8.2 and later there are two directories for vi.lib. settime.dll is located in National instruments\Labview 8.2\Targets\NI\RT\ vi.lib
This is the dll you want to use in order to call it use the same Vi as in 7.1 (RT set date and time.vi) and link it to the correct dll.
