Andrew Stitcher commented on QPID-1904:
---------------------------------------
I suspect this is an issue with the qmf code using the underlying
qpid::sys:AbsTime class representation directly and assuming it is a since the
1970 epoch.
This is not not the case - as documented in cpp/src/qpid/sys/Time.h the value
is nanosecs since an unknown base. Accidentally it is probably since 1/1/970 on
unix systems, but on Windows I'd bet the epoch is different.
This class was never intended to represent calendar time and so there is no
facility to convert it directly.
I guess the quick fix is to shift the epoch base of the windows code when
converting AbsTime to Duration since that is the only way to gain access to the
internal nanosec from epoch value.
A better way would be to introduce a calendar date to AbsTime constructor so
that you can specify the epoch base when you convert to Duration (negative
values of AbsTime are perfectly meaningful for this class).

> Key: QPID-1904
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1904
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Qpid Managment Framework
> Affects Versions: 0.5
> Environment: Windows XP
> Reproduced both with the python API and the .Net API
> Reporter: Julien Lavigne du Cadet
> Attachments: qpid-dates.png
>
>
> The timestamps for configuration and instrumentation messages are incorrect
> both with the python and the .Net api.
> According to the documentation "All timestamps are uint64 values representing
> nanoseconds since the epoch (January 1, 1970)." However, the dates resulting
> can be several years in the past or in the future.
> To reproduce with the python api :
> - in disp.py, line 178 add the following line :
> print gmtime (nsec / 1000000000)
> - start qpid-tool and list the queues => the full dates will be displayed
