Json-rpc transaction date and time

[r1b]

Hi I've been working on integrating bitcoin into my personal finance application here: www.infinitypfm.org but I am scratching my head on how to get accurate date and time information on transactions using the api.

I searched over the docs here but am not seeing it: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_Calls_list

Is this information available?

Thanks.

'listtransactions' gives you 'time', which is Unix time (seconds since Jan 1, 1970 UTC)

Ok.  Will upgrade and give it a shot.  Thanks.

If you will use Unix time, remember about the Y2K38 problem. (Bitcoin uses int64 to resolve it.)
