Обсуждение: date/time functions

Hi guys,

I'm having trouble with converting a 'seconds' field to
'hours:min:sec'..

Using reltime, I can get a 'months day hh:mm:ss' representation, which
is very good, but not what I need.

I need to show 'hours' as the largest component..

eg. it wouldn't be uncommon to deal with '2345:23:12' ie 2345 hours, 23
min and 12 sec..

Any suggestions or do I have to write my own function?? if so, does
anyone have any pointers..

Thanks in advance..

You might consider writing your own function using the pgtcl "language" of
Postgres.  It's clock scan/clock format commands are just the ticket for
what you're doing.
