[Cppcms-users] How to format readable date from unix timestamp within template?

[augustin <aug...@ov...>]

Hello,



How to format  a readable date from a unix timestamp within a template?

I thought it would be something straightforward to do but I seem to be stuck.
I've spent a fair amount of time reading the API documentation, the cppcms 
wiki, and code examples found in cpp blog, but the only thing I ever get 
displayed within my application is the unix timestamp itself.

I have tried all of the following within my .tmpl file, but none of them 
actually filter the timestamp:

r.date_returned is a time_t unix timestamp.

<% gt "{1,datetime=s}" using r.date_returned %>
<%= r.date_returned | date %>
<%= r.date_returned | strftime("%d/%m/%Y") %>



What am I missing?


thanks,


augustin.
