Hello,
I am processing a query that should return more timestamps, and wouls like
to get them as number...
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
| Field | Type | Length|
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
| userid | text not null | var |
| uid | int4 | 4 |
...
| dt_modify | timestamp | 8 |
...
| dt_export | timestamp | 8 |
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
there are more timestamp fields and I wanna load them to C program and
compare them there. (well situation wouldn't be different if it would be
perl program).
I can convert number to timestamp this way:
setup=> update www set dt_export=timestamp(0) where dt_export is not null;
UPDATE 1
setup=> select userid,uid,dt_modify,dt_export from www where dt_export is not NULL;
userid| uid|dt_modify |dt_export
------+----+----------------------+---------
uhlar |1006|2001-04-18 17:12:59+02|epoch
(1 row)
but I'd like to get those timestamps back in integer format. Is that
possible?
