PX_TIME2STRING(3) Library Functions Manual PX_TIME2STRING(3)NAME
PX_time2string -- Convert paradox time into formated string
SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h>
char * PX_time2string(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, long time, const char *format)
DESCRIPTION
Creates a string representation of a paradox time as specified in the parameter format. The time must be either retrieved with
PX_get_data_long(3) after calling PX_get_record(3) or by simply using the long value in the pxval_t struct as returned by
PX_retrieve_record(3). The function uses internally the PX_timestamp2string(3) function. The format string may contain all chars as docu-
mented with PX_timestamp2string(3), though only those concerning the time will produce resonable results.
RETURN VALUE
Returns pointer to string on success and NULL on failure.

PX_timestamp2string -- Convert paradox timestamp into formated string
SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h>
char * PX_timestamp2string(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, double timestamp, const char *format)
DESCRIPTION
Creates a string representation of a paradox timestamp as specified in the parameter format. The timestamp must be either retrieved with
PX_get_data_double(3) after calling PX_get_record(3) or by simply using the double value in the pxval_t struct as returned by
PX_retrieve_record(3). A timestamp contains both time and date information. The format string contains chars which stand for certain values
of the date/time. The following table lists all available characters with a meaning. All other characters are being copied unmodified to
the output string. If a special character shall not be interpreted it must be preceded with a backslash.
