This struct provides a namespace for a suite of non-primitive functions providing conversions between absolute Datetime values and corresponding relative time intervals with respect to the Unix standard epoch time, returned by the epoch method. These methods are alias-safe, thread-safe, and exception-neutral. Functions are provided for returning converted values by value or through a result pointer.

struct EpochUtil;| Name | Description |
|---|---|
TimeT64 | TimeT64 is an alias for a 64-bit integral type representing seconds from the epoch in UTC. Note that, in contrast with bsl::time_t, this type can be used in conversions to and from Datetime values that are less than the epoch (corresponding to negative TimeT64 values). |
