CDF_PARSE_TT2000
================

The CDF_PARSE_TT2000 function parses a single or an array of input strings 
into an 8-byte integer (LONG64) value(s) for use as a CDF_TIME_TT2000 type 
variable. CDF_TIME_TT2000 variables may be encoded into a variety of formats 
using the CDF_ENCODE_TT2000 function or decomposed into date/time components 
using CDF_TT2000, /BREAKDOWN_EPOCH function.

Examples

test_string = '2005-12-04T20:19:18.176214648'

test_epoch = CDF_PARSE_TT2000(test_string)

CDF_TT2000,test_epoch, year, month, day, hour, min, sec, milli, $

                       micro, nano,/BREAKDOWN_EPOCH

 

HELP, test_string, test_epoch

PRINT, CDF_ENCODE_TT2000(test_epoch)

PRINT, year, month, day, hour, min, sec, milli, micro, nano

IDL Output

TEST_STRING STRING = '2005-12-04T20:19:18.176214648'

TEST_EPOCH LONG64 = 186999622360214648

Syntax

Result = CDF_PARSE_TT2000(Epoch_string)

Return Value

Returns a single value or an array (<= 2D) of 8-byte integer values of the 
input string(s).

Arguments

Epoch_string

A formatted string that is parsed into a double precision value to be used as 
a CDF_TIME_TT2000 data type. The format can be one of the predefined formats.

The default format expected by CDF_PARSE_TT2000 is:

yyyy-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.cccuuunnn

where:

Date Element

Represents

YYYY

the year (A.D.)

MM

the month number (1-12)

DD

the day of the month (1-31)

hh

the hour (0-23)

mm

the minute (0-59)

ss

the second (0-59)

ccc

the millisecond (0-999)

uuu

the microsecond (0-999)

nnn

the nanosecond (0-999)

Note: T is a CDF_TIME_TT2000 type 3 placeholder. For more information about 
CDF_TIME_TT2000 values, see “Data Types” in the CDF User’s Guide.
