skill to get csh date time format instead of getCurrentTime from skill

Monarch03116

i will like to record the time while executing my callback.

However, i can get "Apr 3016:00:35 2024" with getCurrentTime.

i prefer to have format like "20240430_160038" with "date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S" of csh.

Don't know how to call csh and get the format.

second question. 

i have existing script written with perl.

how to execute that script and get the result from it by skill code?

  • You could do this with an IPC call (ipcBeginProcess, ipcReadProcess) to launch the date command, but I'd use the built in time functions instead as this will be quicker and avoids launching an external program. For the perl script though, you could use that approach (id=ipcBeginProcess("perlcommand") ipcWait(id) result=ipcReadProcess(id) ).

    procedure(CCFformatTime()
  let(((tm timeToTm(stringToTime(getCurrentTime()))))
    lsprintf("%4d%02d%02d_%02d%02d%02d" 
      tm->tm_year+1900 tm->tm_mon+1 tm->tm_mday
      tm->tm_hour tm->tm_min tm->tm_sec)
  )
)
