用 C + + 获取 Unix 时间戳

如何在 C + + 中获得一个 uint unix 时间戳？我谷歌了一下，似乎大多数方法都在寻找更复杂的方法来表示时间。我就不能用 uint吗？

C++20 introduced a guarantee that time_since_epoch is relative to the UNIX epoch, and cppreference.com gives an example that I've distilled to the relevant code, and changed to units of seconds rather than hours:

#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>
 

int main()
{
const auto p1 = std::chrono::system_clock::now();
 

std::cout << "seconds since epoch: "
<< std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::seconds>(
p1.time_since_epoch()).count() << '\n';
}

Using C++17 or earlier, time() is the simplest function - seconds since Epoch, which for Linux and UNIX at least would be the UNIX epoch. Linux manpage here.

The cppreference page linked above gives this example:

#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
 

int main()
{
std::time_t result = std::time(nullptr);
std::cout << std::asctime(std::localtime(&result))
<< result << " seconds since the Epoch\n";
}

int main()
{
std::time_t t = std::time(0);  // t is an integer type
std::cout << t << " seconds since 01-Jan-1970\n";
return 0;
}

The most common advice is wrong, you can't just rely on time(). That's used for relative timing: ISO C++ doesn't specify that 1970-01-01T00:00Z is time_t(0)

What's worse is that you can't easily figure it out, either. Sure, you can find the calendar date of time_t(0) with gmtime, but what are you going to do if that's 2000-01-01T00:00Z ? How many seconds were there between 1970-01-01T00:00Z and 2000-01-01T00:00Z? It's certainly no multiple of 60, due to leap seconds.

Windows uses a different epoch and time units: see Convert Windows Filetime to second in Unix/Linux

What std::time() returns on Windows is (as yet) unknown to me (;-))

I created a global define with more information:

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <iomanip>


#define __FILENAME__ (__builtin_strrchr(__FILE__, '/') ? __builtin_strrchr(__FILE__, '/') + 1 : __FILE__)    // only show filename and not it's path (less clutter)
#define INFO std::cout << std::put_time(std::localtime(&time_now), "%y-%m-%d %OH:%OM:%OS") << " [INFO] " << __FILENAME__ << "(" << __FUNCTION__ << ":" << __LINE__ << ") >> "
#define ERROR std::cout << std::put_time(std::localtime(&time_now), "%y-%m-%d %OH:%OM:%OS") << " [ERROR] " << __FILENAME__ << "(" << __FUNCTION__ << ":" << __LINE__ << ") >> "


static std::time_t time_now = std::time(nullptr);

Use it like this:

INFO << "Hello world" << std::endl;
ERROR << "Goodbye world" << std::endl;

Sample output:

16-06-23 21:33:19 [INFO] main.cpp(main:6) >> Hello world
16-06-23 21:33:19 [ERROR] main.cpp(main:7) >> Goodbye world

Put these lines in your header file. I find this very useful for debugging, etc.

As this is the first result on google and there's no C++20 answer yet, here's how to use std::chrono to do this:

#include <chrono>


//...


using namespace std::chrono;
int64_t timestamp = duration_cast<milliseconds>(system_clock::now().time_since_epoch()).count();

In versions of C++ before 20, system_clock's epoch being Unix epoch is a de-facto convention, but it's not standardized. If you're not on C++20, use at your own risk.
