ISO 8601 timestamp

Yaosan Yeo

I'm trying to work with timestamp in ISO 8601 format. The timestamp looks like this: "2012-08-07T16:38:45.693245Z". I want to construct a report field which displays this date in one of the columns. I know in SKILL the standard time string looks more like this: "Aug  1 12:00:32 2012". Is there an easy way to convert my input time string to the time string SKILL recognize?

I've tried to format the input time string then use "date" in command line to convert the time stamp but it is really really slow:

date -d "2012-08-07 16:38:45.693245 UTC" "+%b %_d %k:%m:%S %Y"

Is there another way around this problem? Thanks!

  • For the pcreSubstitute() issue, my guess is that you're using IC614 or earlier. In that version you could only specify the string. From IC615 the definition is:

    pcreSubstitute(
    [o_pcreObject]
    t_string
    )
    => t_result | nil

    If o_pcreObject is not provided, pcreSubstitute copies the input
    string and substitutes all pattern tags in it using the corresponding
    matched strings from the last pcreExecute/pcreMatch* operation.

    So I was passing in the optional pattern object. So missing it out is OK - it will work in both IC614 and IC615.

    As for the daylight saving time - you could initialize the tm structure using timeToTm(stringToTime(getCurrentTime())) rather than timeToTm(0) which should give the current DST setting - but whether that's right for the time in question is another matter...

    I wasn't really sure what the "right" thing to do was here...
