Python TimeStamp : DateTime.DateTime() DateIndex value : 1073242822 Metadata value : 2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2
Yes? The internal DateIndex integer representation if a date is not the same as the string representation of a DateTime object either. They all mean exactly the same date, but the representation is not the same. Just as 04:00 GMT is the same as 06:00 CEST. Not the same representation, but they represent the same time.
a) Does that mean, that "1073242822" has nothing to do with the float representation of time.time() ? b) Does that mean, that "1073242822" is the same date + time as "2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2" - it only has a different representation ? c) How can I convert the value "1073242822" to a "YYYY/MM/DD" value ? I tried:
time.ctime(1073242822) 'Sun Jan 04 20:00:22 2004'
but this does not seem to be right in comparison to the metadata value (2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2)...
Is this DateTime index somehow useful (for searching?) in my catalog or should I throw 'em out ?
It's useful of you want to do searching on dates and times, yes.
Ah okay. Then, my next question is: how can I search for objects created on 2003/06/04 if I have to check agains values like "1073242822". Does the ZCatalog automatically transform input values like "2003/06/04" to these "10732..." values to search for objects ? thank you very much, lennart for clarification ! -nico ____________________________________________________________________________ Jetzt bei WEB.DE FreeMail anmelden = 1qm Regenwald schuetzen!
