             Summary: Convert date in ISO8601 to unix timestamp
                 Key: OOZIE-2575
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2575
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: coordinator, workflow
            Reporter: Nazar Volynets


Please introduce new Basic EL Function to convert date in ISO8601 to unix 
timestamp.

The main goal is to be able to convert result of the following functions into 
unix timestamp:
* coord:actualTime()
* coord:nominalTime()
* String timestamp()

{quote}
It will brings a possibility to calculate difference (in milliseconds) between 
coord:actualTime() and coord:nominalTime() without launching dedicated 
(expensive) java action.
{quote}

Or just implement OOZIE-2557 instead of implementing of this issue :)
