If I get a Timestamp it's ms since Epoch
1143584229619
But in LDAP I get a value from the timestamp more like
127877417297554938
First though was maybe ms since time of '01/01/0000' or something but it does not add up that way.
Does anyone know what the timestamp maybe; and how I can convert it into something Java can use.
Thanks in advance.

Timestamp from LDAP (ActiveDirectories lastLogonTimestamp)
Brent Mullet
lastLogonTimeStamp seems to be the no of 100 nano second intervals starting from 0000 hrs 1/1/1601.
This is similiar to windows file time format and .NET has support to create a System.DateTime object out of this value.. Note the sample here, using the long value that you had provided and watch the date being recreated..
.NET Sample :
import System.*;
class Test
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
DateTime dt=DateTime.FromFileTime(127877417297554938L);
System.out.println(dt);
}
}
Java Sample :
If you want to create a java date object out of this value, please try following this sample, where i have used an adjustment factor to convert the lastLogonTimestamp value into a Date object..
import java.util.*;
class Test
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
long llastLogonAdjust=11644473600000L; // adjust factor for converting it to java
//date Epoch
Date lastLogon = new Date(127877417297554938L/10000-llastLogonAdjust); //
System.out.println(lastLogon);
}
}
Thanks
