Usage

Parameters

  • timestamp: the timestamp to format (use SystemTime to get the current time])
  • format: a string describing how the string is formatted. It may contain any supported conversion specifiers, which are replaced as appropriate.
  • utc: If true, then the timestamp will be localized using the UTC timezone, local timezone otherwise.

Return value

A human-readable string from the given timestamp, formatted using the format parameter.

Note that due to ACS's limitations, timestamps are suspectible to the year 2038 problem.
