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!

  • Thanks Andrew for the clarification. I'm using 614 indeed.
     
    As for the DST, I'm only getting the proper UTC time if I turn on DST in the tm structure. It's interesting that I could pass current time to get the current DST in the tm structure, but I guess I'll run into off by 1 hour error again once DST ends.
     
    So, I'll just turn it on always for now until I run into issues again. :)
