Online Tools: Unix Timestamp Converter

Comments

@the one talking about 2038 Well the problem has already arisen at PCs which use times in the future, its called the Y2K38 bug as an allusion to what you mentioned, what may be possible is that they implement integers of 64 bits which will do the work very nicely, it will still have another limit but it will be far after we die xD

The script is not working with large negative timestamps (as php date())

GMT should probably become UTC instead. GMT is kind of an outdated term...

This helps a lot when debugging applications. Thanks for putting it up.

For Chris: Actually the Number is 2147483647 = 2^31 - 1. But the rest remains the same. 64-bit system is the solution.

Thank you very much guys. My teammate was working on migration of guestbook comments from Access database to MySQL database. The problem faced was with migrating a DATETIME datatype to integer. This gave us an idea of what is happening behind. Thanks.

@Chris There is a solution for the 2038 thing - 64-bit. The reason you get the rollover is that that number is the highest you can fit in a 32-bit integer. By 2038 we should all be on at least 64-bit systems, which can handle much bigger numbers. No worries.

Thank you. In php: $unix_time = 1256571985; echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s",$unix_time)

10737418239 translates to Tuesday, January 19th 2038, 03:14:07 (GMT). Anything above (e.g. 10737418240) goes back to 1900. So Linux will self destruct on Tuesday in January 2038? Surely there must be a contingency a la Y2K switchover.

first on google for "convert timestamp"

Note that negative timestamps DO work on Linux (alike) platforms but DO NOT work on Windows platforms: -100 = Wednesday, December 31st 1969, 23:58:20 (GMT)

Thanks a lot for this, I was feeling lazy and wanted to verify a generated timestamp from input was correct and your tool did exactly that.

Thank you for the helpful utility. I'd like to suggest one new feature that would make it more useful. Microsoft uses hexidecimal format for the date (rather than decimal). I had to go to another site to convert hex to decimal, and then was able to plug the decimal value in to your site. A capability to input directly in hex would be useful.
