Sybase is say ( Mar 22 2008 10:41:59:662 AM).
I'm able to format the time stamp of the file in this format ( Mar 22
2008 10:41:59 AM) but not the *milliseconds*.
1) Would 'ctime' or 'atime' or 'mtime' return milliseconds as well?
I don't believe so. IIRC, ctime, atime, and mtime are all based on
the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00)
2) If it does how can we Parse the milliseconds?
If I remember right I do something like
UnixDate(ParseDate($fileTimeStamp), "% % %") etc..
I'm not sure what %?? to be used inorder to get *milliseconds*.
You could use
my $d = UnixDate(ParseDate($fileTimeStamp), "%b %d %Y %I:%M:%S:000 %p")
but I (being an old C person) would say
use POSIX qw/strftime/;
my $d = strftime "%b %d %Y %I:%M:%S:000 %p", localtime $timestamp;
