Question

I would like to retrieve from a SQLite database a list of events which have their start_time “today”. start_time contains a timestamp e.g. like this 1338613200000.

I tried this:

SELECT * FROM events WHERE date(start_time, 'unixepoch')=date('now')

Doesn’t work…

I achieved the same thing in MySQL with such a statement:

SELECT * FROM events WHERE DATE(start_time)=CURDATE();

EDIT:
It’s the problem with my timestamps. They have three zeros too much

Answer 1

Java uses milliseconds since the Unix epoch, whereas I’m guessing SQLite uses seconds.

Divide System.currentTimeMillis() by 1000 before querying the database.
