STINNER Victor added the comment: Instead of a complex structure, we can use a 64-bit signed integer to store a number of nanoseconds. For a UNIX epoch, nanoseconds since January 1st 1970, the min/max are: 1677-09-21 00:12:43.145224 2262-04-11 23:47:16.854776
The Linux kernel is going to use 64-bit integer even on 32-bit CPU to store timestamps, to simplify the code (to avoid the structure). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22117> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
