RE: "Number of seconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT" for OAuth

Oops... I forgot to say, you can test this at
http://www.esqsoft.com/javascript_examples/date-to-epoch.htm to find out
what the correct value should be. (The system on which I work now is a
GMT+0 system, so kind of hard to test this sort of thing. ;) )

I have created a sample RPG module (and a bare-bones program for testing
purposes) that I believe will return UTC seconds since epoch. If you find
that it returns local-time epoch, let me know and I will send the

correction.

Code is at: http://code.midrange.com/2040a00004.html

It's been a while since I've dealt with this stuff, so I'm a bit rusty.

This

is based on my C version of currepoch, which you can find at

Would anybody happen to know how to get the current system time as the
"number of seconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT"? Other than by
adjusting a current timestamp to GMT, constructing one for January 1,
1970 00:00:00, and doing an RPG SUBDUR? Or is that actually the easiest

way?
