Peter created CB-4596:
-------------------------
Summary: Documentation is not consistent for timestamp types
Key: CB-4596
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4596
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Docs
Affects Versions: 2.9.0
Reporter: Peter
Assignee: Michael Brooks
Priority: Minor
Compare Codova documentation for these timestamps:
* Accelerometer > *Acceleration.timestamp* - _timestamp: Creation timestamp in
milliseconds. (DOMTimeStamp)_
* Compass > *CompassHeading.timestamp* - _timestamp: The time at which this
heading was determined. (milliseconds)_
* Geolocation > *Position.timestamp* - _timestamp: Creation timestamp for
coords. (Date)_
It is confusing that documentation describes all these "timestamps" to have
different types.
On closer inspection, for some reason the Position.timestamp really is
(inconsistent with the others) returned as a Date object.
But at least Acceleration/Compass ones seem to have same units so perhaps the
documentation for those ones ought to consistently say they are DOMTimeStamp.
