Author	Topic: Date format - minute data, changed in 2.3.1 (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)
David -DTN Evangelist- Posts: 113 Joined: May 7, 2004 I'd rather be...	Posted: Jul 27, 2004 01:09 PM Msg. 1 of 3 The date format of history data has changed in 2.3.1 for HM (minute data): In the spec (Historical Data via TCP/IP) it shows: YYYY-DD-MM HH:MM:SS Daily data has the numbers under 10 padded with a leading zero as per the spcification. The minute data no longer does. Example, data from 2.3.1 IQConnect: daily: 10:55 2004-07-01 00:00:00,7.890000,7.510000,7.670000,7.590000,337718 minute: 10:53 2004-7-19 9:40:00,6.210000,6.000000,6.050000,6.210000,16576,15376 Is this going to be corrected?

Posted: Jul 28, 2004 02:17 PM Msg. 2 of 3 Another comment on ver 2.3.1 history minute data format that is different from 2.2.7 The history minute data in v2.3.1 does pad the minute and second field with a '0' - however the hour data does not have a leading zero if under 10. example: 13:44 2004-7-27 9:58:00,5.830000,5.830000,5.830000,5.830000,2800,300 13:44 2004-7-27 10:00:00,5.830000,5.830000,5.830000,5.830000,3300,400 13:44 2004-7-27 10:06:00,5.830000,5.750000,5.830000,5.750000,4500,1200 While it may seem trivial in nature it is important to be consistent when going from version to version, especially in a minor update.

Posted: Jul 30, 2004 12:31 PM Msg. 3 of 3 beta Version 2.3.0.2 Fixes the lack of leading zeros in the date and time format in history minute data. *However...* The data is reversed now from 2.2.0.7 with the most recent first. It has the same date/time sequence as the daily - monthly data. I like it better as it is now consistant. I assume it will remain this way, but wanted to verify it. Thanks for fixing the issue!
