nDays = CImage:Date() |
The date nDays is the number of days since Jan 1.0, 1970 GMT.

Suppose that an image in the file sPath was acquired on 24 March 1996 GMT. The following script fragment returns the date on which the image was acquired:
I = CImage:new() |
-- create a new CImage |
I:Open( sPath ) |
-- open the image |
Printf( "d = %lg", I:Date() ) |
-- Result: d = 9579 days |
Printf( "D = '%s'", I:DateStr() ) |
-- Result: D ='1996-03-24' |
