I need to compare epoch time and postgresql timestamp.
In my code first i take time field from database. And get the current time using time() function.
convert the postgresql timestamp to epoch time using Time::Local module.
Then subtract postgresql timestamp from current time for my purpose. Is there any way to directly compare postgresql timestamp and epoch time without using Time::Local module.
use Time::Local;
$msgtime = SelectTimeFromDatabase($MRequestId);
$curtime = time();
#time stamp format in database - 06/03/2009 16:37:47.08812
$msgtime =~ /^(\d+)\/(\d+)\/(\d+) (\d+):(\d+):(\d+)\..*$/;
$month = $2 - 1 ;
# timelocal($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year);
$msgtime = timelocal($6,$5,$4,$1,$month,$3);
return ( ($curtime - $msgtime) >= 30 ? 1 : 0 );

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
