Question

I am trying to get the timestamp in an XML file, but what it says is:

<diary_date>1347274789</diary_date>

This seams serialized to me but I didn’t find any way to deserialize this format.
Do you know how to solve this?

Answer 1

It is the elapsed seconds since 1/1/1970

var dt = new DateTime(1970, 1, 1).AddSeconds(1347274789); //09/10/2012 10:59:49
