     43 // A Timestamp represents a point in time independent of any time zone

     45 // nanosecond resolution in UTC Epoch time. It is encoded using the
     46 // Proleptic Gregorian Calendar which extends the Gregorian calendar

     48 // seconds long, i.e. leap seconds are "smeared" so that no leap second
     49 // table is needed for interpretation. Range is from
     50 // 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z to 9999-12-31T23:59:59.999999999Z.

     55 // # Examples
     56 //
     57 // Example 1: Compute Timestamp from POSIX `time()`.
     58 //
     59 //     Timestamp timestamp;
     60 //     timestamp.set_seconds(time(NULL));
     61 //     timestamp.set_nanos(0);
     62 //
     63 // Example 2: Compute Timestamp from POSIX `gettimeofday()`.
     64 //
     65 //     struct timeval tv;
     66 //     gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
     67 //
     68 //     Timestamp timestamp;
     69 //     timestamp.set_seconds(tv.tv_sec);
     70 //     timestamp.set_nanos(tv.tv_usec * 1000);
     71 //
     72 // Example 3: Compute Timestamp from Win32 `GetSystemTimeAsFileTime()`.
     73 //
     74 //     FILETIME ft;
     75 //     GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(&ft);
     76 //     UINT64 ticks = (((UINT64)ft.dwHighDateTime) << 32) | ft.dwLowDateTime;
     77 //
     78 //     // A Windows tick is 100 nanoseconds. Windows epoch 1601-01-01T00:00:00Z
     79 //     // is 11644473600 seconds before Unix epoch 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.
     80 //     Timestamp timestamp;
     81 //     timestamp.set_seconds((INT64) ((ticks / 10000000) - 11644473600LL));
     82 //     timestamp.set_nanos((INT32) ((ticks % 10000000) * 100));
     83 //
     84 // Example 4: Compute Timestamp from Java `System.currentTimeMillis()`.
     85 //
     86 //     long millis = System.currentTimeMillis();
     87 //
     88 //     Timestamp timestamp = Timestamp.newBuilder().setSeconds(millis / 1000)
     89 //         .setNanos((int) ((millis % 1000) * 1000000)).build();
     90 //
     91 //
     92 // Example 5: Compute Timestamp from current time in Python.
     93 //
     94 //     timestamp = Timestamp()
     95 //     timestamp.GetCurrentTime()
     96 //
     97 // # JSON Mapping
     98 //
     99 // In JSON format, the Timestamp type is encoded as a string in the
    100 // [RFC 3339](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3339.txt) format. That is, the
    101 // format is "{year}-{month}-{day}T{hour}:{min}:{sec}[.{frac_sec}]Z"
    102 // where {year} is always expressed using four digits while {month}, {day},
    103 // {hour}, {min}, and {sec} are zero-padded to two digits each. The fractional
    104 // seconds, which can go up to 9 digits (i.e. up to 1 nanosecond resolution),
    105 // are optional. The "Z" suffix indicates the timezone ("UTC"); the timezone
    106 // is required, though only UTC (as indicated by "Z") is presently supported.
    107 //
    108 // For example, "2017-01-15T01:30:15.01Z" encodes 15.01 seconds past
    109 // 01:30 UTC on January 15, 2017.
    110 //
    111 // In JavaScript, one can convert a Date object to this format using the
    112 // standard [toISOString()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/toISOString]
    113 // method. In Python, a standard `datetime.datetime` object can be converted
    114 // to this format using [`strftime`](https://docs.python.org/2/library/time.html#time.strftime)
    115 // with the time format spec '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%fZ'. Likewise, in Java, one
    116 // can use the Joda Time's [`ISODateTimeFormat.dateTime()`](
    117 // http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/ISODateTimeFormat.html#dateTime())
    118 // to obtain a formatter capable of generating timestamps in this format.
