Re: [Zope-dev] Finding the transaction timestamp in ZODB

Can enybody explain the format of the "byte serial" on the Data.fs? the FileStorage.py reads: "8 byte serial, type stamp that matches the transaction timestamp"

from ZODB.TimeStamp import TimeStamp ts = apply(TimeStamp, _p_serial) t = ts.timeTime() Now t contains a floating point number in seconds since the epoch, like the return value from time.time(), which you can use with the functions in the time module or to construct a DateTime object. Hope this helps, -jfarr
