Hi to all, second question today.....
I have to convert a timestamp column to date (format d-m-Y H:i:s).

I used the delegate class and the script works but... instead to display 2012 it displays 2038!
This is the code:

Code: Select all

class tables_pagine {
    function ts__display(&$record){
        $ts = (int)$record->strval('ts');
        return date('d-m-Y H:i:s', $ts);
    }
}

This is what stored in the mysql timestamp column:

Code: Select all

2012-05-18 13:41:18

... And this is the result in the view:

Code: Select all

19-01-2038 04:14:07

I tried without forcing the cast and the result in the view is:

Code: Select all

10-07-1925 02:52:38

This is the environment:
PHP: 5.3.8
Mysql: 5.5.16

Hoping someone of you can help.

Hope that helps,

Date fields are stored as arrays in Xataface. Use the strval() method instead of val() to make sure you're getting it in string form. Then use the strtotime function as camt suggests.

e.g.

Code: Select all

$ts = strtotime($record->strval('ts'));

Whoops.. I see you were already using strval().
