Thread: convert integer seconds to timestamp

How can I convert epoch seconds (as an interger) to a timestamp ?

I've already seen the post below BUT it doesn't work. I suspect it is out of date:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/2000-09/msg00190.php

thanks.

Sorry, I found the answer to this on the list.

ie. select date::abstime from ....

BUT, how do I get it in local time ? ie. - 10 or 11 hours depending on daylight savings.

thanks.

Sorry again. I don't think I will post any more. I have found the answer I needed.

Thanks. Sorry for the redundant questions.
