CONTIME Procedure
[6] 0.01 second (0-99)
t0, t1, t2 input
INT:value:3
is an array that must correspond to the 48 bits of a timestamp for the results of
CONTIME to have any meaning (
t0 is the most significant word; t2 is the least
significant).
Considerations
•
A 48-bit timestamp is a quantity equal to the number of 10 millisecond units since
00:00, 31 December 1974. The 48-bit timestamp always represents local civil
time.
•
Procedures that work with the 48-bit timestamp are CONTIME, TIME, and
TIMESTAMP.
•
For a more complete description of 48-bit and 64-bit timestamps, refer to
TIMESTAMP or JULIANTIMESTAMP.
Example
CALL CONTIME( DATE^TIME , LAST^T , LAST^T[1] , LAST^T[2] );
!conversion to date and time
CONTIME is used to convert the three words in LAST^T to a date and time.
DATE^TIME returns seven words of date and time.
